Application
The Viqua VH410 Ultraviolet (UV) water sterilizer is a popular and cost-effective solution for whole-house water purification. It effectively eliminates bacteria (including coliform and E. coli), viruses, cryptosporidium, giardia, and various other microbiological contaminants.
Description
The Viqua VH410 offers numerous convenient features, including a visual "lamp on" indicator light, an audible alarm for lamp failure, and an LED display showing the remaining lamp life and total controller run time. It also includes a stainless steel reactor chamber, a fire-polished domed quartz sleeve, and Viqua's Sterilume™-HO coated low-pressure germicidal UV lamp, allowing tool-free lamp replacement. Additionally, the VH410 is equipped with Viqua's BA-ICE-CL controller, which automatically senses line voltage between 100 and 240 volts, ensuring consistent UV output and performance under varying electrical conditions. This model provides a great combination of advanced features, high flow rate capacity, compact size, and affordability.

Prefiltration
A minimum pre-filtration requirement is a 5-micron sediment filter. All UV sterilizers need sediment pre-filtration to minimize or eliminate the chance of targeted contaminants "hiding" behind sediment particles in the "shadow" of the UV light, which would prevent them from receiving a full dose of UV radiation. Therefore, the manufacturer strongly recommends using sediment pre-filtration down to a level of 5 microns or smaller.
