EmailThe Crystal Quest UV replacement lamp for Crystal Quest UltraViolet Sterilizer systems. Uses natural ultraviolet light energy to eradicate microbiological contamination. Water enters through the bottom part of the reactor chamber and swirls around a high output, low pressure mercury vapor lamp thermally protected by a quartz sleeve.
UV replacement light bulb emits powerful ultraviolet light. Energy components contained in microorganisms absorb the light energy; this disrupts the DNA and prevents reproduction.
The UV lights should be replaced annually. Hard glass germicidal lamps provide an economical way of treating water requiring a 99.99% reduction of bacteria and virus and protozoa. This process is accomplished without adding any harmful chemicals to your drinking water.
UV Bulbs have 2 prongs on both ends.
