Hanovia and Palintest Exhibited Together At Piscine 2008
Hanovia and sister Halma company Palintest exhibiting together for the first time at Piscine 2008, the world spa and private swimming pool show, held in Lyon last November. The companies showed their combined strengths in UV treatment (Hanovia) and water testing (Palintest), where they rank among the world leaders in these respective technologies.
Hanovia showed its new SwimPure UV system, designed specifically to reduce chloramines in swimming pools and spas. SwimPure uses a unique switching mechanism which varies the number of UV lamps in operation during peak and off-peak periods. This means operators can save money by reducing energy consumption, while still getting the water quality they desire. The system has a compact ‘in-line’ design which means it can easily be installed in existing pipework; the design also results in a low headloss. The company also exhibited its AF3 UV system for smaller water flows.
Palintest, based in Gateshead in the United Kingdom, showed a range of products, including the Pooltest 25 Professional Plus, a fully waterproof (to IP67) precision pool photometer featuring data logging and USB data download. The instrument features a complete range of 25 swimming pool water tests, including the required tests for free and total Chlorine, pH and alkalinity as well as more specialised tests for complete pool management. The company also launched a new selection of Pooltest test strips, including a 6 in 1 test strip for residential use.
