Ultra-Violet (UV) light is invisible to the human eye. The three categories are: UV-A from 320 to 400 nm UV-B from 280 to 320 nm and UV-C from 200 to 280nm, which is known to break down the DNA and kill 99.99% of bacteria, viruses, spores and mold, as a result, these are rendered harmless.
UVC radiation which is known to break down the DNA and kill 99.99% of bacteria, viruses, spores and mold, as a result, these are rendered harmless.
UV radiation can be utilized for multiple purposes in water and air treatment but is primarily used as a disinfection process that inactivates micro-organisms without harsh chemicals.
How does UVC work?
UV is used to eradicate organic and inorganic chemicals, including chlorine, chloramines, ozone and Total Organic Carbon (TOC) emerging contaminants.
UVC radiation is proven to be effective against water-borne pathogenic micro-organisms including those responsible for Cholera, Hepatitis, Polio, Typhoid, Giardia, Cryptosporidium and many other bacterial, viral and parasitic diseases.
UVC disinfection is complementary to Chlorine disinfection as it deactivates organisms that are resistant to Chlorine such as Giardia and Cryptosporidium.
