PURION IBC Universal 90W SPL BS

A UV-C disinfection system is always the last link in a water treatment chain, as the distance to the tapping point should be kept as short as possible. Water filters in particular offer ideal conditions for colonization by bacteria. The freshly disinfected water would therefore become contaminated again if it were to continue through the drinking water circuit after passing through the UV-C system. Pressure boilers should also always be installed upstream of the UV-C systems.

Lifetime monitoring is recommended for all users who do not leave the system switched on permanently. It is recommended that the lamp is replaced every 10,000 hours, as the manufacturer does not guarantee its performance beyond this, i.e. the amount of UV-C radiation dose required for safe disinfection.

The UV system should be switched on permanently for various technical reasons:
1.) The UV system requires approx. 1 minute to reach full power.
2) When igniting the lamp, approximately as much energy is required as for operation over two hours.
3) Each switch-on and switch-off cycle is detrimental to the service life.

The correct dimensioning of the systems is not based on the maximum daily consumption but on the expected maximum peak rate and is therefore dependent on the performance of the pump.

It must be ensured that no power supply units with pulsed voltage are used, as this can cause irreparable damage to the system.

Yes, this is possible. However, the use of a battery is always recommended for igniting the lamp. In addition, a solar regulator should always be used.

No, we recommend using flow-through reactors, as this precisely defines the maximum distance between the water to be disinfected and the UV-C lamp. A tank disinfection system can only guarantee complete disinfection if it has a previously calculated circulation. In addition, flow reactors are significantly more efficient.
