Aquaray* HiCAP UV Disinfection Systems

Designed for low profile, large wastewater flows

The Aquaray HiCAP, equipped with high power amalgam UV lamps, is designed for medium to large flow wastewater and reuse applications. The minimized footprint of Aquaray HiCAP makes it ideal for retrofitting existing chlorine contact basins. 

Overview

The Veolia Aquaray S is the new generation of Aquaray horizontal UV disinfection equipment incorporating the latest electronic ballast and communication technology with powerful long-lasting low pressure high output lamps. The power supplies for the lamps are located inside a sealed aluminum extrusion directly on top of the module. This Power Bar also handles the lamp controls plus data exchange with the Power Distribution and Data Center (or communicates with an optional PLC based control system). The self-supporting modular units are placed into the wastewater channel (concrete or stainless steel) in multiple configurations to provide the required level of disinfection.
