The BersonInLine range of powerful ultraviolet disinfection systems from Berson UV-techniek can provide permanent disinfection of harmful micro-organisms in drinking water, process water and effluent
Bugs killed by medium pressure UV stay dead!
Bacteria and many other micro-organisms contain enzymes that can repair UV-damaged DNA, a process known as 're-activation': research shows this does not occur with medium pressure UV disinfection
According to AWZI, the InLine 400+ system was selected as it is more effective than chlorine against water-borne microorganisms such as E coli, it removes the need to handle and store dangerous chemicals, and is reliable, safe, easy to use and maintain.
Another major advantage of the Berson unit is that it uses a stepless power supply, which means significantly lower energy costs and longer lamp life than alternative methods.
All Berson InLine+ systems are compact and can be fitted into existing pipework with minimal disruption.
They also have automated wiping systems, which keep the quartz sleeves surrounding the UV lamps clean.
This means no chemicals are needed for cleaning, and wiping takes place automatically during normal operation, without requiring a by-pass unit.
Based in the Netherlands, Berson UV is a world leader in UV technology for a wide range of applications, including drinking, process and waste-water treatment, dechlorination, ozone removal and TOC reduction.
The company has over 30 years of experience in the design, development, manufacture and distribution of UV systems worldwide.
