Ultra Violet Sterilisation Systems - Ultra violet systems from Silverline UK

Ultra Violet water treatment is used to kill bacteria in water. It has always been associated with ensuring safe drinking water from well, spring and borehole supplies though, with increasing legislation, use within food and drink related industries is becoming more common.

UV treatment is one of the safest ways to disinfect water as the rays are a natural component of sunlight. No chemicals are added so there is no danger from overdosing or creating a bad taste.

Care must be taken to choose a model that is powerful enough to treat the flow required. The table following is a basic guide to the model size required to treat the water flow required in a property:

The most popular models used for households are the UV-DS30 and UV-DS55 models. For higher flow rates please see our commercial UV systems. For pond and swimming pool applications flow rates differ to those shown above, so please contact us for more advice.

Where levels of sediment are high or water is cloudy a prefilter should be fitted as shadowing from the particles could stop the UV rays reaching the organisms.

If your household water is from a ‘private’ water supply and you want to be confident of its safety or you are aware of a problem with bacteria your water a Silverline Ultra Violet Sterilisation system is the perfect solution.
