| New Cactus™ UV Purification Systems With Cross Fire Technology For Residential And Light Commercial Applications |
|
| We’ve kept patented Crossfire Technology’s core features like EASY LAMP CHANGES, VISUAL QUARTZ INSPECTION and UV dose of 40mJ/cm2, the same as NSF/ANSI 55 Class A protocols, but SIMPLIFIED it, AND priced it competitively with ordinary UV systems. |
|
Now, world-leading UV Pure technology comes home... with simple, robust CACTUS™ models priced for residential and light commercial use!
The X-12 (NC12-85) model sterilizes 12 Gpm at 85% UVT, making this model ideal for most larger residential and mid-size commercial rainwater collection systems.
The most effective water purification
 Engineered to reduce e-coli, bacteria, cysts like cryptosporidium and giardia, legionella and most viruses to safe levels
- “Lamp On” indicator that lamps are energized
- Laboratory validated for a minimum UV dose of 40 mJ/cm2 at 85% UVT*, at the end of lamp life and at specified flow rate
- Air cooled lamps and standard Anti-Fouling System means wider effective temperature range and minimized quartz fouling
- Elliptical reflectors eliminate UV shadowing and significantly increase effectiveness
Quick and easy lamp changes – once per year
- Front-loading carriage means lamp changes are simple and take just a minute
- No need to drain, disassemble or remove the system from its mounting to change lamps
Visual quartz inspection is easy and takes seconds
- Fold down the front carriage and the entire quartz water chamber is visible
- No draining or disassembly to check quartz fouling
- Clean in place procedure means no draining, disassembly, or mess if the quartz ever needs cleaning
Robust, proven ballast for long life and care free performance
- Proven successful in an eight-year field history of demanding municipal, industrial and commercial applications
Easy installation
- User friendly – everything needed is in the box
- 1" male NPT 316 stainless steel connections
- Mounts vertically; wall mounting template included
- Lightweight, with a small footprint and compact size
- No extra space required for lamp removal or service
*UVT (Ultraviolet Transmittance is a measure of the percentage of UV light that may pass through the water
UV Pure recommends the use of filtration and/or water conditioning systems to treat
non-microbiological contaminants.
