Cleaning a pool is the key requirement to prevent the water in an expensive paid pool from quickly turning green and losing the fun of swimming. There are several approaches to cleaning, the best known being chemical cleaning using chlorine. In this type, not only the chemical chlorine is used, but also other chemical substances with pH-value raisers and lowerers as well as flocculants. Not only the algae suffer from these chemicals, but also the people: Everyone knows red, burning eyes from the swimming pool. With the PURION 2501, the pool can be cleaned in a different, much more modern way. The physical process of UV-C disinfection destroys the DNA compounds of algae and bacteria and the dead material is collected by backwash or sand filters. This process protects health, the environment and the wallet benefits from low follow-up costs. With the PURION 2501, a pool up to 50m³ can be cleaned very efficiently, taking into account ecological and economic aspects.
Due to a wide voltage ballast this unit is designed for a voltage range of 85-264V and can therefore be used in many different countries. The unit is equipped with a Euro plug and can also be used for other types of plugs with an adapter (not included).
The UV-C lamp has a natural power loss over its lifetime. We guarantee that after 10,000 hours the lamp will have reached exactly the promised flow rate. After this time the lamp must be changed, the lamp runtime meter and the lifetime monitoring (OTC) will signal the right time. The hours that the lamp is on are counted and the values are output via 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. Thus, the right time to change the lamp is not missed.
To keep a pool permanently free of algae, the right coordination between pump and UV-C system is necessary. The rule is that at least three times the pool content flows through the UV-C system during the day. The maximum flow rate of 14m³/h should not be exceeded, as this will result in the water no longer being disinfected correctly. In certain cases it is necessary to let the system run longer: This is urgently required, for example, after major rainfall or if the water has been in the pool over the winter.
In case of 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 matching mounting frame and a service kit for intensive cleaning.
