2.1.5 Work on the electrical subsystem
For all work on the machine’s electrical subsystem, the following safety precautions
MUST be observed/followed at all times:
Warning! The voltage used to operate the machine can be dangerous
device
The system must only be opened by trained technical specialists
Isolate the machine before opening the switch box
Read the User Manual before opening the machine
3. Intended use
The ABOX
®
ultraviolet systems deactivate microorganisms, like germs, viruses and
yeasts in the water. The system works efficiently only if clear free from iron and
manganese water is supplied. The function is guaranteed only within the limits of the
technical data of the device. ABOX
®
UV-system UV-irradiation devices can be installed
directly into the water supply pipe. The System should be installed in the supply directly
before any ancillary distribution pipe work and possible storage reservoirs
3.1.1. Technical method
UV-disinfection is a process that takes place when water flows through the reactor
chamber. Microorganisms are exposed to UVC-irradiation and will be deactivated within a
few seconds. This means the cells photochemical reactions are released which inhibit
further cell division and render the microorganisms harmless.
The advantages of the procedure are
No addition of chemicals
No formation of harmful by products
Deactivation of microorganisms takes place for a few seconds
