UV-C DISINFECTION UV-C TREATMENT Over 100 years ago German scientists discovered that the top surface of lake-water was sterile when exposed to sunlight. Investigation led to the discovery of Ultraviolet light. Situated in the electromagnetic spectrum between X-rays and visible light, Ultraviolet (UV) light has many beneficial properties. UV light is split into four main categories, UV-A, UV-B, UV-C and Vacuum UV. The UV-C spectrum (200 to 280 nanometers) is the most lethal range of wavelengths for microorganisms. This range, with 254 nanometers being the peak germicidal wavelength, is known as the Germicidal Spectrum. UV-C light has the ability to cause permanent damage to a wide variety of nuisance microorganisms in water.

THE TARGETED MICROORGANISM Each type of microorganism requires a specific UV-C radiation exposure rate to successfully complete the disinfection process. The targeted microorganism must be directly exposed to the UV-C radiation long enough for the radiation to penetrate the microorganism’s cell wall. However, it takes only seconds for UV-C light rays to inactivate waterborne microorganisms by breaking through the microorganism’s cell wall and disrupting their DNA. This often totally destroys the organism, or at the very least will impair its ability to reproduce.

UV LAMP LIFESPAN TL-, PL- and T5 UV-C lamps have an average lifespan of 9000 hours (± 1 year). After that the lamp will still function for less than 80% and the strength is too low to kill algae and bacteria. Amalgam lamps have a lifespan of 12000 hours (± 1,5 years).

UV-C BENEFITS • UV is effective against all micro-organisms • Vastly improved water quality • Crystal clear water • Less use of other chemicals for water treatment • Fully automatic and cannot be overdosed • Lower cost in chemicals, energy and maintenance • UV is a non-hazardous, green technology

UV-C PRODUCTS UV-C ECONOMY

The Economy UV-C units are our first models for small ponds within a friendly price range. These UV-C units keep your pond clear and your fish healthy. The pond water is pumped through the UV-C device where it is exposed to UV-C radiation, produced by a special lamp. It ensures that bacteria and disease germs do not have a chance to develop. Floating algae are also destroyed by this radiation guaranteeing clear pond water. To achieve optimum performance the device usually is used 24 hours a day as long as the temperature does not drop below 8°C. These units come with hose connectors 1” – 25/20/15 mm.

IMMERSION UV-C

7201269

T5-lamp

Submersible UV-C lamps have a big advantage compared to conventional UV-C units: no pressure loss! These lamps can be used in filter tanks so the water can pass without any resistance/ pressure loss. NOTE: the UV-C radiation range is limited (dependant on i.e. the water clarity) so only a part of the water flowing by is treated. Please note: this product is only intended for professional use and is as such not suited for private use. It should be installed in a professional application or assembled with other appliances. Before using this product the installer/ user must take care the product complies to the latest European standards for UV-C units. The plastic end of the lamp has a 32mm diameter so you can use 32mm pipe clips to mount the lamp in a tank. A special tank connector is available for direct installation in i.e. filters (seeâ&#x20AC;Żpicture).

OZONE UV-C REDOX TURBO3 HIGH PRESSURE

Item No.

The ideal unit to combine ozone and UV-C technology! The unit has an air pump, a UV-C / ozone combination lamp and a static mixer. The lamp produces ± 4000 hrs ozone & ± 9000 hrs of UV-C radiation. The air pump pushes air past the combination lamp which produces about 0.6 grams of ozone. The ozone loaded air is mixed with water in the static mixer where the oxidation process takes place. The water mixed with ozone is then pumped through the combination lamp again but on the outside of the quartz glass. The water is exposed to UV-C radiation (25.000 mW UV-C Output) so that nearly all algae, bacteria and viruses are killed. The UV-C radiation will also break down any residual ozone. The equipment produces ozone which is 100% safe; there is no ozone left in the water flowing out. The UV-C Redox Turbo3 increases the capacity of the pond filter and enriches the pond water with oxygen. Inlet/outlet is 63mm.

POND FILTERS AND ACCESSORIES BANK FILTER

The water enters the filter through the universal hose coupling via the spraying pipe at the top. The filter contains three layers of filter material. The first layer consists of a filter mat, which traps the larger pieces of polluting material. Then the water passes through a mix of substrate, lava and zeolites. The porosity of the substrate and the lava makes for an excellent development of biological activity in the filter. The zeolites absorb harmful substances such as ammonia (NH3) and reduce unpleasant smells. Subsequently, the water flows through the bio blocks. Thanks to the special design of these bio blocks, an optimum bio culture is developed in the filter in a few weeks' time.

POND FILTERS AND ACCESSORIES

BEADFILTERS

Beadfilters are the most popular pond filters because they perform both mechanical- and biological filtration, are very compact in size and are very easy to install and to maintain. Beadfilters are closed (pressure) filters filled with thousands of small plastic beads. These beads float and therefore provide a means of mechanical filtration and the bacteria growth on the enormous surface of these beads provide the biological filtration. Xclear Beadfilters are made of a strong quality Polyethylene. All models are supplied with: a bottom drain to remove the sludge from the bottom, a 6-way valve, a transparent lid, beads and a blower. The Xclear beadfilters are available in 5 sizes for ponds from 10m³ to 100m³. Colour: Dark Grey Granite.

BEADFILTER BYPASS Installing this bypass allows the use of more economical (low pressure) pumps. Due to a very compact bypasssystem, the multi-way valve is completely unused during filtering as the water flows directly into the filter and also leaves the filter in a direct line. This action results in at least 30% less pressure loss (depending on the type of pump). The bypass system is very easy to install on all Xclear Beadfilter models, using the unions supplied.

XCLEAR FLOW-MATIC AUTOMATIC BACKWASH-SYSTEM FOR BEADFILTERS The Xclear Flow-Matic is an automatic backwash-system, that matches any beadfilter with side mount connections. It replaces the traditional 6-way-valves and takes care of less pressure loss thanks to the unique flow design. The FlowMatic uses 4 automatic 3-way-valves and a touch-screen controller. The controller starts and stops the circulating pump and the blower automatically and switches the automatic valves in the correct position for backwash, rinse and filtration. The user can decide how often the Flow-Matic carries out a backwash procedure. In addition to the automatic backwash function, the user can perform an extra (manual) backwash by using the function in the touch-screen controller. The duration of backwash and rinse is determined by the user. The controller can be equipped with a special wire to control Blue Eco pumps. This way, the user can control the RPM of the Blue Eco pump for Filtration and Backwash! This will give you the highest pump efficiency by using a low pump speed during filtration and a higher pump speed for backwashing. Ă&#x2DC;63mm connections.

BENEFITS: - Replaces the traditional 6-way-valve - Fits any beadfilter with side mount connections - Reduces the pressure loss significantly - Duration of rinse and backwash can be adjusted - Easy to install and maintain - Controlled by LCD Touch-Screen - On/Off-function for the circulating pump - Special Blue Eco control function

STATIC MIXER

Item No.

Type

4800016

Static Mixer Ø 75 mm

The Static Mixer comes with air inlet. You can easily connect the mixer to your existing plumbing system. The water is divided under pressure in the mixer, resulting in rotation. The pressure causes the oxygen to be drawn in through the air valve. The turbulent water flow then passes through the stainless steel vanes and the oxygen (possibly in combination with ozone) is quickly and efficiently mixed through the water. The final result is a good distribution of oxygen in your water. The mixer results in low hydrostatic pressure. You can also use the mixer in a low-pressure system. This means that it can be driven by an energy-saving pump.

DIRTY HARRY PRE-FILTER

The Dirty Harry pre-filter provides you with an additional tool to keep your pond clean. The Dirty Harry pre-filter ensures that larger pollutants in the pond water, such as leaves, small branches and larger algae particles are collected before they are caught up in the pump or in the filter. By pre-filtering the water, you prevent larger particles from clogging up or overloading the filter. The service life of the pond pump is protected because large particles will not damage the impeller of the pump. The housing of the Dirty Harry pre-filter is transparent, so it is easy to see when it needs cleaning.

Eco Switch

The Eco Switch is the ideal tool for switching two electrical devices for your pond, such as two pond pumps. This is a good alternative to a variable speed pump. The same energy-saving result can be obtained by controlling two different pumps (max. 400W) with the Eco Switch. A pond pump is usually switched on 24 hours a day in order to circulate the pond water through the filter. It is possible to save a lot of energy by switching from a heavy to a light pump at set times during the day and/or night. But the Eco Switch can, of course, also be used for other devices.

Size

Max. Dosage

0,7 ppm

The SMS-Alert is a mobile phone module with back-up batteries that sends text messages after power failure or flow switch activation. Failure of circulation pumps can have disastrous consequences for fish farms and ponds. The flow switch (included) will be activated when the water flow stops. The delay time before sending a text message can be adjusted set (standard delay is 1 minute, maximum delay is 16 minutes) so no text messages will be send during filter backwash when the pump is temporarily off. Extra connection available for an optional level switch that warns for too low or high water level. Delivered without a level switch.

SMS ALERT

Item No.

An ideal en effective method against (blanket)weed. The Copper Electrolyzer is installed before the pond return inlet. The pond water flows through the Copper Electrolyzer unit. A copper unit, or Electrolyzer, is positioned within the housing, and the copper unit discharges a minimal amount of copper into the water flowing through the housing. These copper ions (Cu2+) in the water have a positive charge and destroy the cell walls of algae, bacteria, viruses and other primitive organisms. As the cell wall is thereby damaged, these organisms are no longer able to take up any nutrients, and are therefore unable to multiply. The process of applying a positive charge to copper is called copper electrolysis. Inlet/outlet: Ø50 mm. PLEASE NOTE: (too much) copper is harmful for fish!

BENEFITS: - SMS Alert with flow switch - Works through SIM card - Worldwide use - Easy to access with cell phone - Recognises commands of 5 different cell phones - Automatic message when batteries needs replacement - Programmable settings

The Buyer will be obliged to take delivery of the goods upon VGE’s request. 2.2 Any delivery times quoted or agreed on by VGE may not be considered to be firm deadlines, unless explicitly agreed otherwise in writing between the parties. In the event of late delivery, VGE must be declared to be in default in writing, in which connection VGE will be granted a reasonable term of at least 14 calendar days as of the date of the receipt of notification to fulfill its obligations. In the event that such extended term is exceeded, the Buyer will be entitled to dissolve the agreement or part of the agreement only with respect to the goods not delivered.

The packaging will not be taken back. Should VGE, however, be obliged by law or any regulations to take packaging back, any costs related to taking back or processing packaging will be borne by the Buyer. 3. Price and Payment 3.1 Unless explicitly agreed otherwise in writing, all prices are quoted exclusive of VAT, transport and insurance costs and all other costs. A quoted or agreed price is valid for one order only, unless the parties have explicitly agreed otherwise in writing. 3.2 VGE will be entitled to adjust prices agreed upon before delivery in the event of increases in cost-determining factors such as fluctuations in exchange rates, raw materials, labor costs or in the event of government measures, provided that such increases or measures occurred after the conclusion of the agreement but before delivery. 3.3 Unless explicitly agreed otherwise in writing, the Buyer will pay the entire purchase price in advance upon placement of an order, in euros and by transfer to or deposit into an account indicated by VGE, without any deduction, discount or set-off. Submission of a complaint will not suspend the Buyer’s obligation to pay. 3.4 If the Buyer fails to timely make a payment in accordance with article 3.3, the Buyer will be in default and all claims of VGE will become fully due and payable immediately, without prejudice to any other rights that VGE may have by under these terms and conditions or the law. 3.5 If at any time Van Erp has doubts as to the Buyer’s creditworthiness, Van Erp will have the right, before commencing or continuing its obligations, to require the Buyer to provide adequate security in the amount of the sums which are or will be owed to Van Erp by the Buyer, whether or not immediately payable, under the agreement, all at Van Erp’s discretion. 3.6 In the event of untimely payment, VGE will be entitled to compensation of all extra-judicial costs, including but not limited to costs involved in sending reminders, one or more notices of default or demand notices, which extra-judicial costs will amount to at least 15% of the total amount payable, subject to a minimum of EUR 500, without prejudice to any other rights that VGE may have by virtue of these terms and conditions or the law. 3.7 In the event that VGE is fully or largely successful in legal proceedings against the Buyer, the Buyer will be obliged to compensate all costs incurred by VGE in connection with such proceedings, even to the extent that such costs exceed the cost award made by the court. VGE may invoke this clause irrespective of whether the Buyer has appealed against the relevant judgment at the court of appeal or the Supreme Court. 4. Retention of title 4.1 VGE will retain title to all goods delivered and to be delivered to the Buyer until full payment of all purchase amounts has been received, as well as any amounts owed by the Buyer pertaining to work performed by VGE in connection with such purchase agreements and any claims pursuant to any failure in the performance of such agreements on the part of the Buyer. 4.2 The Buyer will be obliged to store the goods delivered under retention of title with due care, ensuring that they are recognizable as the property of VGE. In addition, it will be obliged to insure such goods against, inter alia, fire and water damage and theft. The Buyer will pledge to VGE any claims it has pursuant to such insurance policies upon VGE’s first request, as additional security with respect to VGE’s claims against the Buyer. 4.3 In the event that the Buyer fails in the performance of any obligation vis-à-vis VGE, or in the event that VGE has good reason to fear that the Buyer will fail in the performance of its obligations, VGE will be entitled to recover the goods delivered under retention of title or to have such recovered, even when the goods have to be detached. The Buyer will cooperate accordingly. The Buyer will bear the costs of recovery, without prejudice to VGE’s right to further damages. 5.

responsible to ensure that the goods comply within any laws and other requirements applicable in such other country, unless the parties have (i) explicitly agreed otherwise in writing and (ii) the Buyer has correctly informed VGE on the exact content of such requirements. 5.4 VGE is at all times entitled to effect adjustments in the goods to be delivered, in order to improve them or comply with government regulations. 5.5 VGE has no obligation and Buyer shall have no rights in relation to any characteristics and/ or performance of the goods other than the characteristics and the performance that are applicable or agreed pursuant to this article 5. 6.

The Buyer will bear the risk for inspecting the goods by means of random checks and may not rely on the fact that it did not observe a defect that was visible and could have been discovered upon delivery because it—or a third party engaged by it—did not inspect the entire shipment. 6.3 In the event that a good does not comply with article 5 of these conditions, VGE will only be obliged—to be decided at the VGE’s discretion— to repair the defect, to replace the relevant good or to credit or refund the amount charged in connection with the defective good in whole or in part, according to its own reasonable judgment and to the exclusion of any other rights of the Buyer by law. 6.4 The Buyer will not be entitled to any claim if the non-compliance with article 5 cannot be attributed to VGE, e.g. results from any transport, incorrect operation, installation, storage or maintenance by the Buyer or a third party. 6.5 Any and all claims for payment of an amount of money and/or repair of the relevant good and/or replacement of the good and/or supply of any missing part, on whatever basis, as well as any right to dissolve the agreement will lapse at the earliest of the following times: a) upon late reporting pursuant to article 6.1 or b) 12 months after the delivery date. 7.

Force majeure 8.1 If VGE fails in the performance of its obligations due to an event of force majeure, it will not be liable. To the extent that the circumstance making performance impossible is not of a permanent nature, VGE’s obligations will be suspended. In the event that the period during which performance is not possible due to force majeure exceeds 2 months or is expected exceed 2 months , both parties will be entitled to cancel the agreement, without any obligation to pay the damages that may arise as a result. 8.2 In the event that VGE has already partially fulfilled its obligations upon the occurrence of the situation of force majeure, or is only able to fulfill its obligations in part, it will be entitled to separately invoice the part already supplied or the part that can still be supplied and the Buyer will be obliged to pay that invoice as if it pertained to a separate agreement. 8.3 A situation of force majeure affecting VGE within the meaning of this article will be deemed to have occurred in the event of, inter alia, strikes, a shortage of raw materials, delay, transport problems, war or threat of war, full or partial mobilization, riots, sabotage, floods, fire or other forms of destruction within VGE’s company, lockouts and industrial actions, breakdowns of machines or tools or other breakdowns within VGE’s company. A situation of force majeure must also be deemed to have occurred on the part of VGE in the event that one or more of the above-mentioned circumstances occurs within the companies of VGE’s suppliers and as a consequence VGE cannot or could not perform its obligations, or cannot or could not perform such in good time. 9. Suspension and dissolution Without prejudice to VGE’s rights under these terms and conditions or under the law, VGE will at any event be entitled to suspend (further) performance or to dissolve any agreement concluded with the Buyer, in whole or in part, if (i) any goods made available by VGE to the Buyer become subject to attachment, (ii) the Buyer is granted a suspension of payments or is declared bankrupt, (iii) any permits or licenses required for the performance of the agreement are withdrawn, (iv) the Buyer fails to fulfill one or more of its obligations ensuing from any agreement with VGE, (v) VGE has sound reasons to believe that the Buyer is or will be unable to fulfill its obligations under any agreement, or (vi) the Buyer ceases its business or if a change occurs in the control of that business.
