SMP 25

Due to higher output from the lamps, these medium pressure units are able to treat large water flow-rates, while remaining compact in size. When suitable sized for its germicidal action, UV-C also provides a photochemical degradation effect.

The efficiency of the SMP equipment is guaranteed with few lamps being used, and can be used in applications where large volumes of water also have to be treated (eg water supplies, post-disinfection of waste water etc). In addition, they are particularly suitable for swimming pool applications, since they reduce the high combined chlorine concentration which is the major cause of irritation and unpleasant odours.

CHARACTERISTICS OF THE SMP:
o Medium Mercury Vapour Pressure
o Lamp Working Temperature 600 – 900 degC
o High UV Emissions – for the same volume of water fewer lamps are used than for low pressure systems
o Lamp Lifespan – 25-30% emission lost after 5000 hours
o Breaking down of pathogen microorganisms potentially to be found in the water (including those that are resistant to chlorine.
