Ultraviolet sterilizers are a technology commonly used in the field of water treatment to quickly and effectively kill bacteria and viruses in the water, thus ensuring that the water quality meets safe standards. However, UV sterilizers also have certain requirements for water quality.
UV sterilizers have low requirements for turbidity in the water. Turbidity refers to the degree of suspended solids particles and dissolved matter in water. Excessive turbidity will affect the permeability of ultraviolet rays and reduce the disinfection effect. Therefore, before using UV sterilizers, it is necessary to purify the water source by filtration and other means to reduce its turbidity.
Ultraviolet sterilizers have certain requirements for the organic content of the water. Organic substances include plant and animal remains, metabolites of bacteria and viruses, etc., which absorb ultraviolet rays and affect the effectiveness of disinfection. Therefore, the content of organic matter in the water should be as low as possible, which can be removed by precipitation, adsorption, etc.
Ultraviolet sterilizers also have certain requirements for the transparency of water. Transparency refers to the degree of light permeability of suspended matter particles in water, and too high transparency will cause the depth of light penetration to decrease, thus affecting the depth of ultraviolet irradiation. In order to ensure that all corners of the water are fully exposed to ultraviolet light, the transparency of the water should meet certain requirements.
UV sterilizers also have certain requirements for the total dissolved solids content in the water. Dissolved solids refer to substances such as inorganic salts and heavy metal ions that are dissolved in water. Excessively high total dissolved solids content can increase the concentration of impurities in the water and affect the effectiveness of UV exposure. Therefore, before using a UV sterilizer, it is necessary to take appropriate measures to reduce the total dissolved solids content in the water.
Ultraviolet sterilizers have certain requirements for water quality. These include turbidity, organic content, clarity and total dissolved solids content in the water. The effective operation of the UV sterilizer can only be guaranteed if the water quality meets the relevant standards, thus ensuring that the water quality meets the safety standards. Therefore, it is very necessary to treat the water accordingly before using the UV sterilizer.
