Aquionics Releases UV Disinfection Video
Film explains basics of operating a medium pressure UV disinfection system
Erlanger, Kentucky (March 18, 2009) – A new video from UV disinfection specialist Aquionics explains the basics of operating medium pressure UV disinfection systems. Aimed at managers and operators at water and wastewater treatment and reuse installations, it talks the viewer through setting up a system for the first time and shows the ease of replacing the UV lamps and quartz sleeve wipers.
Commenting on the video, Aquionics’ President Bill Decker says, “We decided to commission the film as a way of educating our customers as to just how easy it is to use our medium pressure UV disinfection technology. The short movie talks the viewer through the entire process, from switching on a system for the first time to periodic replacement the o-ring wipers on the quartz sleeves. We plan to follow it up with a film about UV systems for industrial applications.”
A quote at the end of the film sums up the ease of using UV: “We installed three Aquionics medium pressure InLine UV systems over six years ago and they have performed exactly as expected. The excessive man-hours required to keep an open channel unit clean was a large factor in choosing the Aquionics closed channel system.” (Michael West, Plant Manager, Flat Creek Water Reclamation Facility, Gwinnett County, GA).
