How does it work?
The DNA of disease
causing microorganisms exposed to UV light is disrupted so that it is
not possible for the microorganism to replicate and cause illness.
What
is the cost of operating a UV disinfection system?
The UV
Dynamics system uses about as much electrical energy as a 40watt light
bulb.
How long does an ultraviolet (UV) lamp last?
The UV
output of the UV lamp decreases slowly with age and has a useful life of
9000 hours (one year). Beyond 9000 hours the lamp output starts degrade
rapidly and disinfection performance will be suspect. UV Dynamicstm
disinfection units are designed to provide the specified dose at the end
of the useful lamp life. The integral lamp change reminder alarm will
inform you of the necessity of changing the lamp. Operating the lamp
beyond 9000 hrs will result in ever reducing disinfection performance.
Ultraviolet
whole house water sterilizers are exploding in popularity due to their
