The UV Turtle is to be used after any Secondary or Advanced Secondary treatment. The UV Turtle delivers a more consistent, higher quality effluent. Keeping the effluent quality high and the turbidity low helps the UV bulb achieve a better long-term disinfection rate and extend bulb life.Re-aeration also aids in the denitrification of the waster-water before entering the receiving environment.
The Control Panel for the UV bulb is remote mounted with ballast, sensor card and 40' cord. This keeps electrical components away from moisture inside of the tank, giving the UV Turtle reliability in real-world field conditions. The control panel also alarms when the UV bulb is getting ready to go out, not simply when it does go out. This allows time for a service operator to replace the failing bulb before complete failure, preventing non-disinfected effluent contamination.
The UV Turtle is great for discharging situations,subsurface dispersal of effluent within close proximity to groundwater or any environmentally sensitive receiving area. The UV Turtle is a passive gravity system that is rated for 600 GPD.
