Operation
The Blue Lagoon UV-C Ionizer will clean the water in your swimming
pool through copper electrolysis combined with UV-C radiation. The Blue
Lagoon UV-C Ionizer is placed on the piping system after the swimming
pool filter. The swimming pool water then flows through the housing of the
Blue Lagoon UV-C Ionizer. A UV-C lamp and a copper unit, or ionizer, are
positioned within the housing, and the copper unit discharges a
minimal amount of copper into the water flowing through the housing.
These copper ions (Cu2+) in the water have a positive charge and
destroy the cell walls of bacteria, viruses and other primitive organisms. As the cell wall is
thereby damaged, these organisms are no longer able to take up any nutrients, and are
therefore unable to multiply. The process of applying a positive charge to copper is called
copper electrolysis. The copper in the water acts as a disinfecting buffer in your swimming pool
and, in terms of results, can be compared with the effect of chlorine. The UV-C lamp that is
positioned in the Blue Lagoon UV-C Ionizer generates UV-C light. This UV-C light produces
UV-C radiation with a wavelength of 253.7 nm, ensuring that bacteria, viruses and other
primitive organisms are destroyed. Due to the length of the device, the water is exposed to this
high level of radiation for a longer time, which destroys the DNA of bacteria, viruses and
micro-organisms. The interior of the device is made of 316L stainless steel, which ensures an
additional reflection of the UV-C radiation, increasing the efficiency by up to 35%.
Research has shown that UV-C light disinfects swimming pool water up to 80%, while copper
disinfects up to 20% of the swimming pool water. Assuming that these values are 100%
correct, the combination of UV-C with copper electrolysis makes it possible to swim safely
without having to use any chemicals. Thanks to the Blue Lagoon UV-C Ionizer, your swimming
pool water will be disinfected efficiently and safely, and the quality of your water will remain
excellent.
