Ultraviolet (UV) light in pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries is used at several points in the water treatment process to protect materials, pipelines and products from microorganisms, residual disinfectants and organics in the water. 

bestUV delivers systems designed for these special requirements, including material certificates (3.1B), FDA-approved components, special construction of the UV measurement device, and any kind of hygienic tri-clamp connection (DIN, ISO, SMS) used at the site. 

construction of the UV reactor and quality of welds

construction of the UV measurement device

material and roughness of the UV reactor and internals

type of inlet and outlet connections

type and material of O-rings

The selected UV reactor and internals are also resistant to high CIP-temperature, resistant to CIP-chemicals and resistant to present residuals.

disinfection (inactivate present microorganisms)

deozonation (breakdown of ozone)

dechlorination (breakdown of free chlorine)

dechloramination (breakdown of bounded chlorine)

TOC-reduction (breakdown of small organic matter)

Each application requires a specific UV dose ranging from 40 up to 1500 mJ/cm2.
