UVC (ultra violet clarifier)

The SMART UV Difference is Product Integrity!
SMART UVs are the first and only UVs supported with "Guaranteed Accurate Flow Rates!" There is no second guessing with SMART UV flow rates because each one is calculated using the Bolton Photosciences, Inc. "UV Calc" Modeling Program. This is the same UV calculation that is recognized by the United States Environmental Protection Agency!

UV Equipment

What Is UV?
Ultraviolet light is a spectrum of light just below the range of visible to the human eye (as shown at right). UV light is divided into four distinct spectral areas with UV-C being (250-280 nm) the most lethal range to living microorganisms. UV-C is capable of altering the DNA of living organisms and rendering them unable
to reproduce.

UV-C light, when applied properly as a problematic waterborne

algae solution, is far superior to ozone and harmful algaecides. Most importantly UV does not leave a residual in the water.

4 Steps to SMART UV Success

Using a UV Sterilizer successfully begins with:
1. Identifying the "Target Microorganism" (example: Waterborne Algae)
2. Identifying the Target Microorganism's Required UV Dose (example: 22,000 µWs/cm²)
3. Receiving Accurate UV Flow Rate Information from the UV Manufacturer
4. Select the correct UV model that delivers the Required UV Dose at your
application's flow rate

The "Required Microorganism UV Dose" bar graph below reveals specific microorganisms and their established UV doses required to achieve successful UV treatment.

The speed at which the waterborne microorganisms travels through the UV housing (across the UV lamp field) establishes the UV dose (µWs/cm²) received.

Limitations: UV Sterilization treatment takes place inside the UV exposure housing. Exposure time between the waterborne microorganism and the UV-C light is critical in achieving successful UV disinfection. The condition of the application’s water will determine how well the UV-C light penetrates through it (UV transmittance). UV-C is absorbed by the targeted microorganism or by other organic waterborne particles. It is for this reason that UV equipment should be positioned after the mechanical filter.

The Manufacturer's Suggested UV Water Flow Rates

Flow Rates that Match True UV Capacity

SMART UVs are generally larger in size than competing UVs (as shown to the right).This means they offer greater UV exposure--utilizing the UV lamp to its maximum potential! SMART UV water flow rates reflect true equipment capacity and real application conditions…they are never exaggerated!

Emperor Aquatics, Inc. is the only manufacturer that supplies you with
UV water flow rates that represent true equipment capacity in actual application conditions!

SMART UV water flow rates take into account poor UV light transmittance through “green water”—one reason why our flow rates are so much lower than competing UV brands.
