Bio UV Light that Disinfects
The sun emits an invisible light: ultraviolet rays. This natural phenomenon is
reproduced inside Bio-UV's range of sterilizers, using powerful lights incorporating
the latest technology that emit UV C rays. At 254 nanometres, the ideal wavelength
for eradicating micro-organisms (viruses, bacteria, algae, yeasts, moulds, etc.)
the UV C rays penetrate to the heart of the DNA and disturb the metabolism of
the cells until they are totally destroyed. All germs are therefore rendered inactive
(including legionnella pneumophila) and cannot reproduce. The Benefits of UV
- Ecologically and environmentally friendly
- Reduces the amount of chemicals needed
- Non-hazardous
- Eradicates chloramines in swimming pools
- Simple to install, operate and maintain
Use In Swimming Pools
UV technology has a proven track record in this application. It effectively reduces chloramines which means a dramatic reduction in chemicals, water and heating costs.
UV makes for a more pleasant bathing experience, whilst achieving a significant reduction in energy and running costs.
Drinking Water
UV is effective in killing bacteria and micro-organisms found in natural water sources e.g. springs and bore holes, which could otherwise lead to stomach upsets, for example. It can be used in conjunction with other filtration devices to remove particles and deposits to offer a chemical free way of purifying non-mains water.
Bio-UV sterilisers are manufactured in stainless steel are compact and easily maintained.
Product Range
Bio-UV currently produces dozens of different types if sterilizers. Made of 316L stainless steel or HPPE, they are capable of treating 0.2 to 2000 m3/hour. Designed to use bulbs that incorporate the latest technology (lowpressure high-intensity bulbs, amalgam, medium to high pressure, etc.) electric ballasts and flow management, they provide maximum effectiveness at the flow rates required for each type of use.
Domestic Drinking Water:
The DBP range treats natural water for domestic and light commercial use at the rate of 0.5 to 3.5m3/hour, simply and efficiently. Manufactured in 316 grade Stainless Steel, this range is robust and easily maintained. UV performance indicators are available as an option.
Private Swimming pools and spas:
A special range to treat 5 to 100m3/ hour or more. Our patented UV concept is now fitted in over 4000 pools. UV makes for a more pleasant bathing experience whilst significantly reducing energy and running costs.
Community swimming pools and spas:
The Bio UV MP range of powerful sterilizers treat 20 to 1000m3/hour, reducing chloramines levels by at least 50 % offering savings on water usage. They therefore cover investment costs more quickly, are more environmentally friendly and provide healthier water and more comfortable surroundings.
Preventing Legionella Pneumophila:
Used in air cooling towers or hot water systems, sterilizers are adapted to flow and temperature in order to keep installations safe.
Ornamental ponds, aquariums:
Our sterilizer ranges treat 0.5 to 500m3/hour, acting as clarifiers and providing clean water to improve the health and observation of aquatic flora and fauna.
The Question of Cost ......... ?
Without doubt, water treatment by UV is both environmentally friendly and safe to use.
However, high initial costs have sometimes been a drawback in the past. Sterilisers from Bio-UV offer significant savings over similar UV systems, without compromising on quality. This means any initial outlay is recouped much more quickly in running cost savings.
Bio-UV a leading light for water purity.
