Information about UV Light
(without
Clearwater Ionization System)
Clean,
clear and fresh swimming pool water with up to 80% less chlorine, the
new Spa & Pool UV-C makes it possible. The Spa & Pool UV-C
disinfects water safely and in an environmentally friendly manner. It
keeps the formation of mould, bacteria and algae under control and
protects the (swimming pool) water against pathogenic organisms.
You do not need to use as much chlorine and other chemicals to
disinfect the water, to prevent chlorine smell, skin irritation and
"red eyes". In comparison with other UV-C devices, the Spa & Pool
UV-C has many unique features. Due to the length of the stainless steel
housing, the water is exposed to a high dose of UV-C radiation for a
particularly long period. The interior of the Spa & Pool UV-C is
electrolytically polished so grime can barely adhere, keeping the
reflection at its maximum and maintenance simple. The reflection also
yields 35% more UV-C. The Philips UV-C lamp has a useful life of an
incredible 9,000 hours.
The Spa
& Pool UV-C is available from certified swimming pool installers
and specialty shops.
With the Spa & Pool UV-C your water will be efficiently and safely
disinfected, providing you with excellent water quality.
The choice is
up to you!

Functioning of the Spa
& Pool UV-C.
The Spa &
Pool UV-C provides clean, fresh and clear water in an efficient
and environmentally friendly manner. The water is fed through
the UV-C unit by a pump. Here it is exposed to UV-C radiation at a
wavelength of 253,7 nanometres, produced by a special lamp. This
radiation neutralises bacteria, viruses and other primitive organisms
and prevents them from reproducing. UV-C radiation
damages the DNA of the cells and ensures that the genetic
material can no longer be read. The cells in the water die
off and can no longer divide.
