UV Pure’s patented Crossfire Technology® is at the core of all our systems.

UV Pure’s patented Crossfire Technology® is at the core of all our systems.

  • It is a better mousetrap. Proven since 1998 in over 12,000 applications, globally.
  • It means effective treatment in conditions 10 times worse than conventional “light in a pipe” UV systems can handle.
  • It means a disinfection dose 2.4 times greater than conventional UV systems for the same energy input and cost.
  • It means no fouled quartz, no messy, costly, manual cleaning, and no broken quartz.
  • It means easy lamp changes.
  • It means no false alarms from overheating.
  • It means no operator exposure to the water stream.
  • It means Pure safe water. Always®

Features And Benefits Of Core Crossfire Technology

Most Effective UV Treatment

  • Validated to reduce pathogens to safe levels – minimum of 99.99% reduction, in real world conditions - not just in a test lab
  • Effective in very low UVT wastewater and surface water treatment applications
  • Effective in a water ten times harder than conventional UV systems
  • Elliptical reflectors focus energy 360° - ending UV shadowing
  • Reflective technology reuses energy with elliptical reflectors means 2.4 times more efficiency with the same input energy as conventional UV systems
  • Lamps are air cooled, do not overheat meaning no loss of dose in no-flow or low-flow conditions
  • Lamp output optimized for a broad range of air and water temperatures

Crossfire Technology is self-cleaning

  • Automatic mechanical self-cleaning
  • Eliminates quartz fouling from minerals and bio-film and operator exposure to potentially toxic wastewater
  • No risk of false alarms due to fouling
  • No need for water softeners ahead of the UV system in potable applications like conventional UV requires

Smart technology engineered to be fail safe and risk free

  • Dual smart UV sensors continuously monitor UV Dose, Lamp Intensity (UVI), and net UV Transmittance (UVT)
  • 4-20 mA output available
  • Digital monitor, visual, and audible alarms and event notifications
  • On-board data logging and self-diagnostic trouble shooting logic
  • Automatic solenoid shut-off valve
  • Hard contacts for remote start/stop and remote alarm

Engineered to be virtually maintenance free

  • Simple and easy lamp changes
  • Engineered to eliminate nuisance alarms
  • Standard power conditioner protects against surges and brown-outs (115 volt models)

Low operating and total lifetime costs

  • Industry leading Warranty
  • No cost of water softening equipment for effective treatment like conventional UV systems
  • Automatic self-cleaning means no labor to clean quartz, no quartz breakage costs
  • Quick lamp replacement time reduces labor costs
  • Low energy costs and inexpensive long-lasting LPHO lamps
  • Simple, inexpensive power requirements – single phase 115 or 240 volt
  • No special infrastructure required for mounting, template included
  • Redundancy incorporated in multiplexed higher flow applications – no extra unit(s) needed

Quick and easy to install

  • Small footprint and compact size minimizes cost per square foot
  • Standard Stainless Steel flexible hoses mean no hard piping
  • No extra, wasted space required for lamp removal
  • 24 hour initialization programming manages first time use minimizing commissioning wait time (H15xs and all Upstream models)
