Again, a certified bestUV system for the Alps

alpsDutch manufacturer bestUV was selected to supply the latest Önorm-certified ultraviolet (UV) system for a touristic village in the Alps.

The purpose of the certified bestUV system is to protect the visitors and inhabitants against pathogens in the drinking water. 

The BetaLine certified UV system will replace an existing UV system which did no longer fulfill the demands of treating drinking water. Based on the experiences, the bestUV system will be equipped with fully automatic cleaning device to prevent fouling of the quartz sleeves and UV sensor.

The UV lamps are automatically adjusted in power based on water quantity and quality, resulting in a minimal usage of energy.

Ultraviolet light has an advantage over chemical treatment, such as chlorine, as UV does not formate chlorinated organic compounds.

BestUV system was selected because of the low energy consumption, compact size, robust construction of the UV reactor.

Two waterworks select BetaLine UV systems

ByglandsfjordDutch UV manufacturer bestUV is again selected to deliver Önorm validated BetaLine UV systems for two scandinavian communal drinking water plants. The drinking water is mechanical filtered surface water and origins from the lake. The two waterworks decided to replace some low-pressure (LP) UV systems, installed in the 80‘s, by ‘state-of-the-art’ bestUV systems.

BetaLine UV systems were introduced to the market after intense validation procedures at universities for Water hygiene, (Patho)physiology and Biophysics. They are approved by several international health institutes for use in disinfection of water for human consumption. 

Bygland_and_JordalsboeBetaLine is a compact UV system, equipped with unique high-efficient low-pressure UV lamps. They operate in automatic mode on the most economic lamp power due to bestUV’s intelligent power controlsystem. The bestUV system runs exactly on the power needed to fulfill minimum UV dose requirements, even when flow and surface waterquality change.

Compared to medium-pressure (MP) UV systems the BetaLine is saving a lot of energy and has thus the lowest carbon footprint, which fit into the ‘environmental phylosophy’ of the waterworks. 

The engineers selected bestUV systems for a couple of reasons:

  • lowest investment costs,
  • 15 years lifecycle costs calculation (LCC),
  • long lamp life, 3x more compared to medium-pressure UV lamps
  • easy installation and maintenance,
  • automatic lamppower controlsystem, resulting in minimum use of energy,
  • automatic cleaning device, included in Önorm validation tests,
  • proven reliability at many drinking water references.

Again bestUV systems are disinfecting drinking water for human consumption against lowest costs on a very environmental friendly way and thus preserve and protect the beautiful nature.
