General UV Information UV water disinfection is a commonly used technology that leaves
no taint, chemicals or residues in the treated water. Disinfection using
UV light is quick and clean and no bacteria, viruses or moulds are immune
to the killing power of UV.
UV disinfection units, often called 'UV sterilisers' or 'UV filters',
comprise a stainless steel reactor chamber housing a UV lamp or lamps
located inside protective quartz sleeves. These lamps are tailored to
emit UV at 254 nm, which is quite lethal to DNA contained in the cells
of the bacteria. The UV breaks and modifies the DNA chain, stopping the
bacteria from reproducing, effectively killing it. UV is often used for
water disinfection, however, it can also be used to disinfect air in ducts
and rooms as well as surfaces of cartons, packaging, conveyors and even
products themselves.
