The sun emits invisible light – ultraviolet light. This natural phenomenon is reproduced inside the reactors of the Delta UV product range using powerful UV-C ray lamps, the result of leading edge technology. At 254 nanometers, the optimum wavelength for destroying micro-organisms (viruses, bacteria, algae, yeast, mould, etc) Delta UV-C rays penetrate and disrupt their DNA, permanently deactivating germ cell metabolism so they cannot reproduce.
Simplicity & Health
The effectiveness of type C ultraviolet rays as a means of sanitisation has been known for more than a century. After filtration, water circulates through the Delta UV sanitiser for complete disinfection – bacteria, viruses and algae are completely de-activated without side effects or dangerous by-products. This process results in the cleanest and purest water possible for your pool and drastically reduces your need for chemical products. As it is not possible to build a pool where 100% of the water passes through a filter, you will still need to maintain a small residual of chemicals in your pool in order to destroy any micro-organisms that do not find their way into the UV sanitiser.
