Microwave electrodeless ultraviolet sterilization equipment It can destroy the molecular structure of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) or RNA (ribonucleic acid) in the cells of microbial organism by using ultraviolet light of appropriate wavelength, resulting in growth cell death and (or) regenerative cell death, achieving the effect of sterilization and disinfection.

To ensure microwave Electrodeless ultraviolet sterilization equipment Use effect. Before using, novices need to know how to select the correct size and follow the correct installation method. Let's talk about it carefully.

1、 Determination method of correct size:

This is the "complex" part of sterilizer use. For proper use, Microwave ultraviolet water treatment equipment It must be matched with the appropriate flow rate to ensure an effective "killing dose" for the microorganisms you want to eliminate. This flow rate must match the size of the aquarium to ensure the proper number of "flips" of water. Most manufacturers will provide a table to recommend large aquarium sizes and appropriate flow rates for each model they produce. When comparing manufacturers, consider whether they consider the following factors, and the rating may be different:

1. Bulb efficiency: some use 90% efficiency, others use lower efficiency (for example, 60% is observed at the end of bulb life)

2. Organisms to be killed: bacteria/algae or protozoa

3. Transparency of water: clear or turbid

4. Transmission loss through quartz bushing

These differences make it difficult to provide a general rule of thumb. If you are not sure how to calculate the grade, please consult the manufacturer.

2、 Installation method:

Microwave electrodeless Ultraviolet sterilization equipment It should be a piece of equipment in the system before the water returns to the aquarium. It should be preceded by biological and mechanical filters, as well as any chemical filters or heat exchangers in the system. Follow the manufacturer's installation instructions. Most devices use hose barb connectors to connect to the appropriate water pump, or are designed to allow additional connectors to be connected as PVC sliding fit or hose barb.

3、 Correct maintenance plan:

The quartz sleeve needs to be checked once a month, and then wiped clean with alcohol. Some large microwave electrodeless ultraviolet Sterilization equipment The wiper mechanism is installed to facilitate maintenance.
For most devices, UV bulbs need to be replaced after 6 months of continuous use, but this time may vary, so be sure to follow the manufacturer's recommendations. When installing or replacing a bulb, do not look directly at the bulb when the unit is turned on. Doing so will hurt your eyes. (Damage may occur without discomfort.)

During maintenance, be sure to disconnect the power supply of the equipment to prevent electric shock. When opened, the bulb becomes very hot in the air, and immersion in water may cause the bulb to break.
