WORKING METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MONITORING A UV DISINFECTION INSTALLATION

摘要

A working method and an apparatus of a UV disinfection installation contains a water-flooded reactor chamber and at least one UV radiation source. The UV radiation source is arranged such that it can radiate in the reactor chamber. A UV sensor and an evaluation unit for the sensor signal are provided. The apparatus attains a high cleaning performance with little constructional engineering complexity. The cleaning performance is able to be detected exactly for the entire irradiated flow volume, and which is attained by virtue of the radiation source consisting of UV LEDs which are at least arranged on one side of the reactor chamber and by virtue of the UV sensor is arranged on the same side between the UV LEDs and by virtue of at least the inner surface of the reactor chamber lying opposite this side being embodied as a reflection surface for the UV light.
