Frequently asked questions

What is the intended purpose of the RWT Series U.V. Disinfection Units?

The primary function of these units is to destroy waterborne pathogenic bacteria, resulting in a greater than 99% reduction in their presence.

What are the maximum concentration levels of various water parameters before ultraviolet disinfection?

The maximum allowable concentration levels are: Turbidity of 5 NTU, Manganese of 0.05 ppm, Hardness of 7 gpg, Iron of 0.3 ppm, and a pH range of 6.5 - 9.5 ppm. Pre-filtration equipment may be required if these parameters cannot be maintained.

How often should I replace the UV lamp in my unit?

The UV lamp is rated for approximately 9,000 hours of continuous use. For optimal effectiveness, it's recommended to replace the lamp annually or after 9,000 hours of operation, whichever comes first. Failure to replace the lamp may lead to a decrease in disinfection efficiency and potentially pose a fire hazard.

What does the model number RWT-8E and RWT-15E signify?

The model number indicates the maximum flow rate in gallons per minute (gpm). RWT-8E has a maximum flow capacity of 8 gpm, while RWT-15E has a capacity of 15 gpm.
