The decision to set up a salt water pool is usually based on health aspects. Salt water is beneficial for the skin, it is gentle and protects the body from dehydration. Precisely because of these positive effects, it is crucial that the pool is cleaned in a way that is not harmful to health. Cleaning with chlorine is absolutely not recommended here, as the positive properties of salt water are almost completely negated by the chlorine and other chemicals. With the PURION 2001 P, the UV-C disinfection process is used: Algae are specifically illuminated with UV-C light, causing the DNA compounds to dissolve and the algae to die. This gentle method of water purification does not change the taste, smell or composition of the water. With the PURION 2001 P, the principle can be applied to a 30m³ salt water pool. For a saltwater pool that promotes health, there is no more compatible cleaning method than UV-C - a cleaning method that is environmentally friendly and attractive from an economic perspective.
Thanks to a wide-voltage ballast, this system is designed for a voltage range of 85-264V and can therefore be used in many different countries. The system is equipped with a Euro plug and can also be used for other plug types with an adapter (not included).
The UV-C lamp has a natural power drop over the course of its service life. We guarantee that after 10,000 hours the lamp will have reached exactly the promised flow rate. After this time, the lamp must be replaced; the lamp life meter and the service life monitor (OTC) signal the right time. The hours in which the lamp is switched on are counted and the values are shown on an LED display. Up to 9,000 hours a green LED lights up, between 9,000 and 10,000 hours the pre-alarm is indicated by a yellow LED and after 10,000 hours a red LED lights up. This ensures that the right time to change the bulb is not missed.
The PVC reactor makes this system suitable for salt water. As the welded seams of stainless steel are attacked by the salt, there is no alternative to PVC for salt water applications.
To keep a pool permanently free of algae, the pump and UV-C system must be correctly matched. At least three times the pool volume should flow through the UV-C system during the day. The maximum flow rate of 8m³/h should not be exceeded, as this would result in the water no longer being disinfected correctly. In certain cases, it is necessary to run the system for longer: This is urgently required after heavy rainfall, for example, or if the water has been standing in the pool over the winter.
In an unfavorable initial situation with a lot of algae, it can be advantageous to use a biological flocculant to support the UV-C system.
In addition to the system, this bundle also includes another replacement lamp, the appropriate mounting frame and a service kit for intensive cleaning.
