Spektron UV Wedeco Spektron Industrial UV Disinfection System

Meeting challenging hygiene standards

The Spektron Industrial models are specifically designed to meet the most stringent disinfection requirements of the food and beverage industry. The vessel’s inner surface, aseptic connections and solid stainless steel cabinet are features that ensure a high level of quality and consistency in taste and appearance. The systems are also suitable for sensitive applications in pharmaceutical and microelectronics industries.

Extensively tested and sustainable

The Wedeco Spektron Industrial system range is based on Xylem’s Wedeco Spektron technology, a proven, energy-efficient UV solution for the disinfection of drinking water, process water, and other high UV transmittance liquids, with more than 2,000 installed systems worldwide. The Wedeco Spektron drinking water UV systems have also been extensively tested to meet the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s UV Disinfection Guidance Manual (USEPA’s UVDGM, 2006) and certified to the German DVGW and Austrian ONORM standards.

High efficiency and adaptability

For improved economics and maximum sustainability, Spektron units employ Wedeco low-pressure, high-output, amalgam Ecoray UV lamps and ballasts. Used in combination with the variable power option, the Ecoray technology results in excellent energy efficiency under all operating conditions. Particularly in dimmed mode, they realize average energy savings of up to 20% compared to existing technologies. The Ecoray lamp also has higher energy efficiency compared to medium pressure lamps, further reducing energy costs. Thanks to reduced mercury content, Ecoray lamps are also more stable and sustainable - an environmentally friendly feature of Spektron units that can help reduce the carbon footprint. Ecoray UV lamps come with a lamp life guarantee up to 14,000 hours, reducing lamp maintenance.

The Spektron Industrial UV systems offer four different sizes, allowing adaptation to the customer’s flow range.

Operational simplicity

UV system management is made easy through several integrated and optional controls.  The Wedeco UV systems sensor-controlled OptiDose monitors operating conditions in real time, including flow, UV transmittance, and UV intensity. Its proven control logic adjusts energy consumption to the minimum needed to meet dosing requirements. No assumptions are made regarding process parameters, ensuring cost savings and disinfection confidence at all times.

The EcoTouch controller with HMI and integrated configurable alarm outputs allows for easy access of processed data. It has an optional SCADA connectivity, to ensure proper capture & processing of operational data. Plus, an automatic wiping system keeps the sleeves clean, minimizing manual cleaning effort, and Ecoray UV lamps come with a 14,000 hour lamp life guarantee, reducing lamp maintenance.
