ETS closed system technology delivers safe drinking water to South Africa

ETS, pioneers in the design and engineering of Ultraviolet treatment systems have supplied Rand Water, South Africa's largest supplier of potable water to the Gauteng area with a state-of-the-art compact, closed chamber, Ultraviolet disinfection system for the treatment of potable drinking water.

ETS' water treatment package consisted of two, 12 lamp ECF medium pressure chambers that was sized specifically for Rand Water, who have adopted UV treatment into their disinfection policy.

ETS' closed system design is perfectly suited for potable water applications, which typically have a large flow.  The UV disinfection Eco-line system installed at Rand Waters Zuurbekom pumping station is capable of treating up to 2000 m3/hr of drinking water.  Additionally UV will provide protection against chemically resistant microorganisms such as Cryptosporidium without the use of additional chemicals, vastly improving the quality of the water.

The in line ECF UV system features automatic wipers to prevent the build-up of deposits on the quartz tube, and UV monitoring to ensure the system consistently runs at an optimum level. An integrated state-of-the-art ETS SPECTRA control system provides Rand Water engineers with data on flow, UV dose and lamp intensity, whilst the SPECTRA's built in data logger provides performance data which can be easily downloaded to a PC or Laptop for review.

With over 25yrs of experience and achievement, ETS is a world leader in Ultraviolet technology. Strong commitment to innovation and development means that ETS range of Ultraviolet products offer customers the best choice available when quality, reliability and consistency need to come as standard.
