The pond water is pressed with a pond pump through the housing, where it is channelled past the UV-light sterilizer. By means of UVC-radiation of the PL-lamp, harmful bacteria and germs are destroyed and the algae formation remains under control. The UVC-clarifier provides clear pond water within 14 days. You achieve the best result if you combine the UVC-clarifier with a biological filter.

A special insert in the inner housing of CUV-600 (without helix) ensures that the water flow moves in a spiral course around the UVC lamp. Consequently, the exposure time to the UV radiation of the water to be clarified is twice increased.
At the same time SunSun has mounted a Stainless Steel Mirror, which ensures that the unused UV light is reflected . Light that is not absorbed directly is mirrored in the pond water and can act again there. Thus, the contact time and the intensity of the water to be clarified is more than double the UVC radiation. For effective magnetization of the pond water 2 large ferrite magnets were installed in the chassis.

If compared with similar devices with reflector technology, this new model is not susceptible to sediments and dirt of the reflector, which reduces significantly the cleaning work.

Regarding koi ponds each m³ of pond water needs a 3 watt power of the UV sterilizer.

If there is a reason for assuming a high bacteria level and all your other posibilities have been exhausted then the long-term use of a UVC-clarifier for reducing the bacterial count is highly recommended. UV lamps clarify the water in the pond. Swimming algae proliferate in pond water under the influence of organic polllution very fast if exposed to strong sunlight and colour the water green. This happens especially in spring when the temperature rises and the sunshine duration increases.

UVC-pond clarifiers irradiate the water in a flow-through reactor with UV rays.The UV-C radiation destroys the swimmig algae. The algae agglutinate to large particles and ca be easily removed by means of mechanical filtering.
Our UVC clarifiers modify the tertiary and the quaternary structure of the algae proteins by means of UV-radiation. This means the destructions of the algae which can be removed from the water by pond filters.

Ocasionally you can hear the argument a UVC-clarifier is unnatural. Although this is right in principle, the statement is not convincing as a counter-argument, because from this point of view every pond filter or the whole aquarium is “unnatural”. Fish kept with a clarifier are said to grow soft and fall ill immediately after being put into other water. Firstly, that is not true, and secondly it could also be argued that a biological pond filter is harmful and a a relatively high nitrite content would contribute to the fish’s strengthening. Quite the opposite. In fact a UVC-clarifier helps balancing the natural biotope of the aquarium environment.

The life span of the UVC-light source varies between 7.000 and 10.000 operating hours. We recommend changing the light source and cleaning the quartz glass of the UV-lamp at the start of the season, when the water temperature of your pond rises. The flowing water is purged of harmful bacteria and germs. The reduction of germs has no negative effect on the pond’s microclimate because bacteria settle themselves on stones, the filtration surface and in the whole pond system for reducing pollutants and they can reproduce themselves. The UV-lamp can maintain the total microbial content of the water in near -natural proportions.

The water circulates through the two inlets of the UVC-clarifier and in the process all impurities like algae, bacteria or parasites are reduced. The more this circuit is maintained the more effective is the germ reduction.
