Inactivate bacteria in the water stream prior to use.
UV system uses UV light which shines into the water stream. As the water passes through the light, bacteria are inactivated in the water by the UV light.
How It Works
- Disinfection Method
- Ultraviolet (UV) light
- Monitoring
- State of the art UV sensor with real-time performance feedback
- Safety Shut-off
- Optional solenoid valve stops flow if UV performance falls below a safe level
- Design
- High UV output lamp for a smaller footprint at the same UV dose

Benefits
- State of the art UV sensor technology to give you real time performance feedback, for added peace of mind
- High UV output lamp technology allows for a smaller footprint, while maintaining the same UV dose as a longer chamber
- Optional solenoid valve which will stop the flow of water through the chamber should the UV performance fall below a safe level
Frequently Asked Questions
How do UV Filter Work?
UV system uses ultraviolet light to zap unwanted pathogens, deactivate their DNA and render them inept and unable to reproduce.
Is UV water safe?
UV light inactivate pathogen which disinfect the water without the use of chemical and will not negatively affect the taste and odor of water.
What does a UV system treat?
While UV does not remove pathogens and organisms, it does keep them in check by altering their DNA and cell wall. Some of the common microbial contaminants that UV system targets includes E. coli, cryptosporidium, giardia, hepatitis A, etc.
