It is annoying when an expensive pool up to 30m³ in size has been purchased and after a few weeks it is completely green due to algae infestation. If you clean this pool with chlorine, the water becomes clear again, but chemicals in the water spoil the bathing experience. A modern process that makes much more sense both ecologically and economically is based on the physical principle of UV-C disinfection. A UV-C disinfection system installed in the water circuit illuminates the water with targeted UV-C light. This dissolves the DNA compounds of algae, causing them to die. This does not affect the smell, taste or composition of the water. It is precisely these positive effects that the PURION 2001. The benefits of this system are manifold: on the one hand, it is easy on the wallet thanks to low running costs, and on the other, red eyes and other effects of chlorine or other chemicals on the human body are a thing of the past. The environment is protected and the pool provides the user with a water reservoir for the garden, the water from which can be used to water plants without any problems.
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).
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.
The UV-C lamp has a natural drop in performance over the course of its service life. We guarantee that the lamp will have reached exactly the promised flow rate after 10,000 hours. 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.
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.
