Description
Overview
The 145 W submersible UV-C light is a locally manufactured in-tank disinfection unit for large storage tanks of 10,000 L and up. It hangs in the water and deactivates bacteria, viruses and other pathogens before they reach your taps.
Unlike a single-pass UV device, a submersible light works on the whole volume of the tank, so the water has much more dwell time under the lamp. It also stops stored water going sour and discourages insects. The lamp sits in a quartz sleeve, emits germicidal UV-C at 253.7 nm and is rated for 9000 effective hours.

Where it works
Big tanks on farms, mines and municipal sites hold water for days, and that is exactly when bacteria multiply. A 145 W light suits a 10,000 L or 20,000 L tank on a Free State farm, a lodge in the Bushveld or a clinic storing borehole water. Match the light to your water source: a borehole report will tell you what filtration is needed, rainwater from a clean roof needs little, and municipal water can be filtered for drinking. For best UV-C results, filter down to 0.2 micron first. If daily draw is very high, you may need extra UV capacity.

Questions about this product
What size tank is the 145 W light for?
It is sized for tanks of 10,000 L and upwards. For tanks of 2000 L to 5000 L, the 55 W submersible light is the right match. If your tank sits between those sizes, or you draw most of the water out daily, ask us before you buy so the UV dose matches your usage.
Do I need a filter as well?
Yes, filtering helps a lot. UV-C works best when particles are removed first, down to about 0.2 micron, which keeps minerals in the water. Borehole water should be tested to decide the filtration, municipal water can be filtered for drinking, and clean roof runoff needs the least.
Do you deliver this to Bloemfontein or Mbombela?
Yes. Kamano delivers with its own trucks from Polokwane to all nine provinces in 1 to 3 days. The light ships at about 5 kg, which falls in our R550 band for orders up to 30 kg, and delivery is free on orders of R20,000 or more (VAT incl.).
What if power cuts out?
After an interruption, you may need to unplug the unit for five minutes before restarting. The manufacturer guarantee excludes a broken or damaged lamp, glass or components, so handle the quartz sleeve with care when you hang it.
