Domestic Ultraviolet Water Purifiers
Pumpmasters only supply UV units manufactured by UV Systems in Suffolk. They are specialists in ultraviolet disinfection and have been manufacturing systems for over 25 years. UV systems products are the market leaders in the UK and approved by health specialists for domestic use
.
How Does Ultraviolet
Disinfection Work?
The disinfection unit comprises of an enclosed chamber with an inner sleeve of high purity quartz, which contains a germicidal (shortwave ultraviolet) lamp. Water passes through the chamber and is subjected to the UV light which shines through the quartz sleeve.
Shortwave ultraviolet destroys the genetic structure of micro organisms, therefore bacteria or viruses in the water exposed to the UV light will be destroyed.
Ultraviolet light is one of the safest ways to disinfect water since it does not use chemicals and therefore cannot be overdosed. It also does not alter taste.
PERFORMANCE
AND QUALITY
UV disinfection units are rated according to the UV transparency of the water, flowrate and level of bacterial kill.
Our units are rated conservatively to cope with bacterial problems on well water supplies, providing they generally meet EEC water requirements.
All domestic systems include a flow restrictor to ensure the units capacity cannot be exceeded. Our units are also rated for reduced efficiency at the end of lamp life.
Do not assume that alternative UV units are equal in reliability or can achieve satisfactory disinfection levels throughout lamp life.

UPVC / STAINLESS STEEL
Both UPVC and stainless steel chambers are available, each with over twenty years of proven reliability. UPVC units offer the advantages of UV disinfection at competitive prices to the domestic user, whilst an extensive range of 316 grade stainless steel chambers are designed to meet the stringent requirements of the food industry.
All units use high efficiency lamps requiring only annual replacement.
FILTRATION
It is important that sediment in the water does not obstruct the UV light, We strongly advise that a 5 micron sediment pre filter is fitted before the chamber to remove this contamination.
Pumpmasters have an extensive range of compatible filter units in stock matched to the UV chambers capacity and will be pleased to advise when choosing a unit and propose corrective measures for all water problems.
LARGER UNITS
UV Systems offer the broadest range of standard units in Europe. Their expertise in design and manufacture enables us to tailor systems to specific site situations. Our products are in regular use in a wide range of applications from vending machines to municipal drinking water treatment.
