If no UVT% test sample is currently available, you have a few options: Atlantium personnel can bring a portable UVT% meter for on-site testing during a scheduled visit. Alternatively, you can send a sample to your Atlantium salesperson for testing. Please ensure the sample is in a 100 ml plastic bottle with a sealed cap,
UVT%: Measures how much UV light passes through water, indicating UV-absorbing contaminants. Turbidity: Measures water cloudiness due to suspended particles, reported in NTU. They measure different aspects of water quality and are rarely correlated.
Low-Pressure (LP) UV: Emits a single wavelength (253.7 nm). Produces less UV light overall, requiring more lamps in the system for effective coverage. LP Lamps operate at lower temperatures and therefore each LP lamp is more energy-efficient than an MP lamp. Limited versatility in handling a variety of contaminants, as it does not damage microorganisms’
Total Internal Reflection (TIR) is Atlantium’s patented technology that enhances UV disinfection by uniformly distributing light throughout the inactivation zone, effectively concentrating UV energy for optimal microorganism inactivation. At the core of this system is its uniquely designed chamber, made of high-quality quartz surrounded by an air block instead of traditional stainless steel. This innovative
Unlike quartz chamber surrounded by an air block and stainless steel, traditional polished stainless steel chambers do not reflect UV light. Instead, it absorbs UV energy, reducing system efficiency.
Bound chlorine typically refers to chloramines, which exist in three forms: monochloramine, dichloramine, and trichloramine. The HOD™ (Hydro-Optic Disinfection) UV system removes bound chlorine through photolysis. Its medium pressure UV lamp emits a broad spectrum of UV wavelengths, including those specifically effective at breaking the chemical bonds in chloramine molecules. When exposed to this UV
Our lamps are designed for exceptional longevity. However, operational parameters can influence their performance. Based on our accumulated data, we've observed that actual lamp life often surpasses the rated duration, with some cases showing impressive longevity depending on the number of ignitions. Our lamp replacement alerts are triggered by real-time sensor readings that measure the
No, you don’t need to replace your lamp if it still meets performance standards. Lamps can remain viable beyond their rated duration. Their longevity depends on working hours and the number of ignitions, rather than a strict time frame.
Atlantium’s systems fit various electrical networks. The amp draw and required circuit breaker size depend on your unit’s specific model and electrical configuration. Please refer to the electrical drawings provided with your system or contact our support team for precise information.
If you don’t have three-phase power, Atlantium can provide a phase converter, or you can use any compatible phase converter to change 120V to 480V. In some cases, 208V is available as a three-phase power supply. If so, you will need a converter from 208V to 480V. Please check your power supply to determine your
