• Specially designed, patented HO lamps provide consistent and reliable ultraviolet output over the entire life of the lamp (9000 hours) to ensure continuous purification.
  • Durable stainless steel chamber to prolong life and eliminate ultraviolet light degradation.
  • Controller display visually displays days of use and will alarm if lamp failure occurs.
  • Rated Life: 365 days.
  • Voltage at 50Hz: 110V; Voltage at 60Hz: 220V.
  • Max Pressure: 125 psi.
  • Wavelength: 254 nm. Microjoules: 30 mJ/cm2.
  • Working Temperature: 36°F – 104°F (2°C-48°C).

Water quality plays a major role in the transmission of ultraviolet rays. It is recommended that the water does not exceed the following maximum concentration levels.

Maximum Concentration Levels
Iron < 0.3 ppm (0.3 mg/L)
Hardness < 7 ppm (120 mg/L)
Turbidity < 1 NTU
Manganese < 0.05 ppm (0.05 mg/L)
Tannins < 0.1 ppm (0.1 mg/L)
UV Transmittance > 75%

Effectively treating water with higher concentration levels than listed above can be accomplished, but may require added measures to improve water quality to treatable levels.

The units generate a UV dosage of at least 30,000 microwatt-seconds per square centimeter (µW-s/cm2), even at the end-of-lamp life (EOL).

UV application is affected by many factors and the following should be looked at prior to the installation of the UV system; UV Transmission (transmittance) deals with the effectiveness in which the 2537 Angstrom units (254 nanometers) wavelength of the ultraviolet light is transmitted through the water. The higher the transparency of the water, the more effective the UV system becomes. This optical clarity is evaluated by performing a test which passes through a 1 cm depth. The basic design of the units has taken into account a typical transmission at the desired wavelength. In practical terms this means that a system designed to flow at 24 gallons per minute, at a typical transmissibility could actually have a higher flow rate in liquids with a higher transmissibility. As a general guideline, the following are some typical UV transmission rates (UVT):

UV Transmission Rates
City Water Supplies 85-98%
Deionized/RO Water 95-98%
Surface Waters
(lakes, rivers, etc.)
70-90%
Ground Water (wells) 90-95%
Other Liquids 1-99 %

Polaris™ Scientific Commercial High Output Ultraviolet Systems

offer a range in flow rates from just 14 gpm for a small home or up to 46 gpm for a larger home, small business and commercial applications such as: light commercial reverse osmosis systems, water vending machines, food industry, laboratory, medical facility water, pharmaceutical, cosmetic processes, final electronic component rinsing and recirculation loops to name a few.

Polaris™ Scientific Commercial High Output Ultraviolet Systems

efficient easy installation design connector cup allows for a fast secure connection from the ballast to the lamp. No special tools are needed for the installation and it makes maintenance fast and easy. Both Lamp and Ballast will provide all the benefits of the new Patented design. Our ultraviolet systems produce little change in water temperature even after prolonged periods of no water flow, making them ideal for many application requirements.
