Sustainability is a cornerstone of modern AquaCulture solutions, and AquaShield delivers on this front with its energy-efficient and eco-friendly design. Whether used as an Aquaculture air pump, submersible water pump, or part of a larger system, AquaShield ensures optimal water quality without compromising on sustainability.
With IoT integration, operators can remotely monitor performance and receive notifications via SMS or email. This makes AquaShield an essential component of efficient aquaculture technology solutions. Combined with its compatibility for saltwater pumps, AquaCulture centrifugal pumps, and even propeller pumps, AquaShield offers unmatched flexibility for fish farms of all sizes.
For clearer water with high UV-t, DESMI also offers the AquaDose UV System, specially tailored for land-based aquaculture technology solutions.
FAQ
What is UV water treatment?
UV water treatment is an advanced method of disinfecting water by using ultraviolet light to neutralize harmful microorganisms like bacteria, viruses, and pathogens. It is widely used in Aquaculture systems, aquaponics setups, and fish farming as a chemical-free and environmentally friendly way to maintain clean water.
How does UV treatment help fish farms?
UV water treatment acts as a protective firewall in fish farming, preventing the spread of diseases by disinfecting intake water. It ensures the water is free from harmful microorganisms without altering its chemical composition, supporting healthier fish and more efficient operations in Recirculating Aquaculture Systems, off-shore fish farming solutions, and RAS Aquaculture.
Why use UV treatment in Aquaculture?
UV treatment is vital for Aquaculture and aquaponics systems because it:
- Removes harmful pathogens without chemicals.
- Protects fish farms and aquaponics setups from disease outbreaks.
- Improves water transparency and quality, especially in systems with submersible water pumps, salt water pumps, and utility pumps.
- Supports sustainability efforts, aligning with modern Aquaculture sustainability solutions.
How effective is UV water treatment?
UV water treatment is highly effective, particularly when designed for specific conditions like low UV transmittance. DESMI’s AquaShield UV System handles flows from 35 m³/h to 3,500 m³/h and excels in challenging environments with low water transparency. Its innovative design ensures reliable disinfection for Aquaculture water pumps, vertical pumps, and even efficient Aquaculture pumps.
How does UV water treatment work?
UV water treatment works by passing water through a chamber where ultraviolet light destroys the DNA of harmful microorganisms. Systems like AquaShield optimize this process by ensuring water passes close to the lamps for a longer duration, enhancing disinfection in Aquaculture fish farming and vertical multistage pump setups.
What is UV light used for in water treatment?
UV light is primarily used to disinfect water, eliminating bacteria, viruses, and pathogens. In Aquaculture, it is critical for maintaining water quality in fish farms, aquaponics systems, and RAS Aquaculture, ensuring clean water without the need for chemicals or additives.
How does UV treatment improve water quality?
UV treatment improves water quality by removing harmful microorganisms, making the water safer for fish farming and aquaponics. It is particularly effective in murky water conditions and integrates seamlessly with systems using submersible pumps, external water pumps, or Aquaculture dosing pumps to ensure optimal water transparency.
How to integrate UV treatment into my system?
Integrating UV treatment into your Aquaculture setup is straightforward with DESMI’s AquaShield UV System. It offers skid-mounted designs for easy installation and is compatible with vertical centrifugal pumps, salt water pumps, and Aquaculture air pumps. With IoT integration, AquaShield allows remote performance monitoring and alerts via SMS or email, ensuring seamless integration into any Aquaculture or fish farm UV system.
