STERILSYSTEMS immersion emitter with individual control box TS
This powerful solution for water disinfection is designed for maximum efficiency and safety. A special feature compared to many conventional UV-C systems is that the integrated individual control box enables flexible and centralized control. Similar application scenarios can be found, for example, in the [STERILSYSTEMS double emitter DS], which ensures germ-free water in industrial processes in a comparable way.
Functionality and features
The immersion emitter is immersed directly in the water to be cleaned. An installation fixed to the tank or inserted via a stainless steel plate makes installation particularly straightforward. The UV-C radiation reliably prevents the growth of various microorganisms by destroying their DNA structure. This keeps the water virtually germ-free - without the use of chemical additives. The robust design made of V4A stainless steel withstands external influences and ensures a long product service life with consistently high disinfection performance.
Important characteristics that are crucial for professional use include the following points:
- IP68 protection class for maximum water resistance
- Powerful UV-C lamps with an average operating time of 16,000 hours
- Operation with 230V (50-60 Hz), suitable for many industrial and commercial applications
- Different power classes depending on model (e.g. 7 W to 77 W with mercury filling)
- Stainless steel housing in V4A quality for high resistance
- Weight between 0.47 kg and 0.8 kg (immersion heater) and 1.95 kg (single switch box)
- Connection cable available in 3, 6 or 10 m length
The integrated power unit with ballast electronics significantly optimizes energy consumption. The system also scores points with its tried-and-tested plug concept, which enables quick installation without complicated wiring. Maintenance work is largely limited to the regularly recommended replacement of the UV-C light source at the end of its service life.
Typical areas of application
Thanks to the strong UV-C radiation without chemical additives, there are many different areas of application. This immersion emitter is primarily used when it comes to reducing or completely eliminating germs, viruses or algae growth in industrial and commercial water circuits.
- In air washers and cooling towers, the device specifically prevents biofilm formation and germ proliferation.
- In filter systems in fish farms, bacteria and parasites are contained, which promotes fish health.
- Fountains and water tanks benefit from consistently high water quality as deposits are reduced.
- For breweries, UV-C treatment ensures a low-germ environment within the process water supply line without altering flavors.
- Swimming pools and whirlpools can be kept stable in the long term by using this system, as algae and germ growth is effectively prevented.
In addition to these classic fields of application, the technology is also extremely beneficial in the OEM sector when it is permanently installed in machines and systems. The TS system is a reliable component, especially in industries where process reliability and germ-free conditions are a top priority.
Certifications and standards
The immersion lamp is classified with protection class IP68, which stands for complete protection against the ingress of water. Comparable UV-C immersion heaters in Europe often meet the CE requirements. For more extensive certification requirements, integration into qualified processes is possible without any problems thanks to the robust design and high-quality components.
Concrete application examples
- In a brewery that works with large water tanks, the TS immersion heater is often used to keep the process water fresh from the source. Unwanted deposits in pipes and tanks are significantly reduced
.
- In a spa and wellness facility, UV-C disinfection works more reliably than chemical methods as it does not cause any residues or odors.
- Within a supermarket humidification system, the TS system can minimize the formation of harmful legionella or mould spores.
- In pond filters, the intensive radiation combats both floating algae and unwanted germs without disturbing the balance of the water.
FAQs
How often does the UV-C lamp need to be changed?
The UV-C lamp usually works efficiently for around 16,000 hours. After this, it should be replaced to ensure the desired disinfection performance.
What maintenance work is required on a regular basis?
Aside from replacing the emitter, it is only advisable to check occasionally for deposits or damage to the stainless steel housing. As a rule, the individual switch box does not require any special maintenance, provided it is operated under normal conditions.
Can the immersion system be used in salt water?
The stainless steel housing in V4A quality offers very high corrosion resistance, meaning that the device can be used in many processes containing salt water. Nevertheless, it is advisable to check compatibility with the exact salt content in advance.
Do I also need chemical disinfectants?
In many applications, the UV-C system is already sufficient to achieve a high level of purity. Chemical additives are often limited to minimal quantities or can even be dispensed with altogether in some cases.
Conclusion
The versatile immersion heater including individual control box impresses with its simple installation, low maintenance requirements and high disinfection performance. With minimal energy input, germs, algae and other microorganisms are effectively reduced, which sustainably increases the quality and purity of water operations. This reliable UV-C technology is suitable for both small and large systems that require a particularly high standard of hygiene. Especially in sensitive areas such as food production, wellness facilities and drinking water supply, a safe, economical and environmentally friendly solution can be realized.
