Domestic UV Steriliser Systems<br />

PRIVATE WATER SUPPLIES<br />
There are more than half a million people in the UK whose only source of drinking water is from a private supply. These<br />
sources fall into one of three main categories:<br />
WELLS<br />
Most wells are aquifer-fed where water is provided from a relatively shallow underground source.<br />
SPRINGS OR STREAM<br />
This type of system is usually the simplest and consists in the main of a protected collecting chamber into which feed<br />
water is diverted before being delivered to a storage tank within the property.<br />
BOREHOLES<br />
Boreholes extract water from deeper levels than other sources. Using a rigid tube of 4” or 6” reaching down to the<br />
supply and a submersible pump at the base, they can operate in depths in excess of 150 feet.<br />
If you are unsure about the quality of your existing water supply, you can obtain a laboratory report from your local<br />
council, or an independent analytical company. A properly designed, installed and maintained system will give you<br />
years of clean, trouble-free water supply.<br />
DOMESTIC UV STERILISER SYSTEMS - TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION<br />
<strong>Aqua</strong> <strong>Cure</strong> water sterilisers employ a low-pressure mercury vapour discharge lamp surrounded by a water jacket whose<br />
inner wall is made from a special UVC-transparent quartz metal. The lamp produces a very strong spectral line at 254nm<br />
in the shortwave UVC region, which is the waveband most lethal to micro-organisms.<br />
The UV light shines powerfully through water passing along the unit, destroying the cell DNA (or RNA in the case of<br />
viruses) making the micro organisms inactive.<br />
<strong>Aqua</strong> <strong>Cure</strong> units use a stainless steel water chamber maximising full use of the available ultra-violet energy, resulting in<br />
long exposure times and high UV doses and minimising UV light absorption into the chamber wall.<br />
