INTRODUCTION
We at Aqua Ultraviolet would like to take the time to thank you for purchasing the finest ultraviolet system on the market.
For over twenty years, Aqua Ultraviolet has manufactured ultraviolet systems which are in use in many different fields
and industries such as aquariums, aquaculture, public and commercial aquariums, educational institutions, government
agencies, commercial and research organizations throughout the world.
Aqua Ultraviolet sterilizers are used to destroy single celled organisms such as water borne bacteria, viruses and/or to
control algae and/or to kill fungi and protozoa. Aqua Ultraviolet sterilizers are recommended for both fresh and salt water
systems as well as ponds. There are no residual effects when using an Aqua Ultraviolet sterilizer. Ultraviolet will not
affect Bio-filters or lower fish immune systems!
HOW ULTRAVIOLET WORKS
The ultraviolet lamp emits a germicidal ray which alters or disrupts the DNA or RNA of targeted organisms such as algae,
bacteria and protozoa. By properly implementing an Aqua Ultraviolet system in-line, the targeted organisms can be
eradicated effectively without any harmful residuals.
The Aqua Ultraviolet sterilizer works better on filtered water. Any debris in the water can inhibit UV transmission.
CAUTION: READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION OR OPERATION.
