3MUV-8  UV System 8 GPM

Disinfection of water using ultraviolet treatment is a proven technology. Using a UV (Ultraviolet light) water filter is a safe and highly effective way to protect your water supply against viruses and bacteria. The UV light damages the DNA part of the bacteria and viruses in such a way that they are unable to replicate. (A cell that cannot reproduce is considered dead). The 3MUV-8 UV Systems is effective in destroying Cryptosporidium, Salmonella, Shigelloses, Escherichia Coli, Vibrato Comma, Enteroviruses, Polioviruses, Coxsackie A/B, Hepatitis A and many other bacteria as well.

The 3MUV-8 UV System provides point of entry disinfection with a flow rate up to 8 gpm and is ideal for treatment of an entire home or cottage. The UVBLST-1 controller provides constant output current and a universal power input (120V/47-63Hz.), as well as visually displaying remaining lamp life of operation.  A Simple design allows for easy homeowner maintenance. The quartz sleeve design allows for maximum UV output and operating efficiency.

Water quality is extremely important for the optimum performance of your UV System. The following levels are recommended for installation.

  • Iron            < 0.3 ppm
  • Hardness    < 7gpg
  • Manganese < 0.05 ppm
  • Tannins       < 0.1 ppm
  • All UV Systems must be installed with a 5 Micron Sediment Filter.
