UV quartz sheaths protect your lamps from leakage, temperature fluctuations, fouling, and breakage. Properly maintained, they ensure optimal UV transmission and help reduce environmental risks over time.
Applications
1H2O3 offers premium UV quartz tubes for a wide variety of uses:
- Water disinfection units (aquaponics, aquaculture, swimming pools, wastewater treatment plants, drinking water plants)
- Photochemical reactors and other specialized equipment
Used with germicidal UV bulbs, quartz sheaths guarantee protection and stability of the process.
Quality & properties
- Manufacturing to the highest industry standards
- Fire-polished finish for excellent UV transmission
- Wide selection of diameters, wall thicknesses and lengths
- Standard, HO (high efficiency) and amalgam compatible
1H2O3 Tip: Replace the ducts in the event of persistent cracking, haze or fouling to maintain UV power and tightness of the system.
How is the maintenance operation of the UV quartz ducts carried out?
Maintenance of UV quartz ducts
Before any intervention, remember that :
-
- When replacing a UV lamp, you should not put your fingers on the glass. Cleaning the sheaths with alcohol will remove any traces.
- The light produced by a UV bulb must be carefully protected from direct or indirect prying eyes.
When should you replace?
It is recommended to replace the UV quartz sheaths after 26000 hours / 3 years of operation, to maintain the guarantee of a sufficient level of irradiation. This replacement can be done at the same time as that of UV bulbs.
How is quartz sheath service performed?
Materials needed:
- New UV bulb
- O-ring (included with UV lamp)
- UV quartz sheath
After shutting down and securing your installation, all you have to do is remove the connector part to access the UV lamps.
- Remove the old UV lamp and are O-ring
- Replace the quartz sheath
- Mount the new lamp
- Position the new O-ring
- Reattach the connector part
How to recycle quartz sheaths?
The easiest way is to recycle it with glass. Alternatively, when you have a bulb to recycle too, you can enclose the quartz tube with the old UV lamp in the packaging of the new lamp and, for people using original Bio UV reactors, write “recycling” and then ship your used lamps and ducts to be reprocessed at an approved recycling facility.
- Pools
- Spa
- Freshwater aquariums and ornamental ponds
- Aquaponics
- Aquaculture / freshwater fish farming
- More generally, all fresh, clear waters containing less than 20 mg/L of suspended solids, NTU < 1, and iron < 0.1 mg/L
Germicidal UV bulbs disinfect water effectively. This compact solution offers protection against leaks, temperature fluctuations, fouling and breakage. A UV disinfection reactor with good UV quartz sheaths prevents environmental risks over time.
