How It Works
The S36RL Sterilight Lamp functions as the ultraviolet light source within your water treatment system. When water passes through the UV chamber, this lamp emits germicidal UV rays that disrupt the DNA of bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens, preventing them from reproducing and effectively disinfecting the water.
Installed inside the UV housing, the lamp operates efficiently at a flow rate of 12 gallons per minute, ensuring that water receives adequate exposure time for maximum microbial reduction. This process helps maintain safe water quality without the use of chemicals.

Once installed, you’ll notice immediate improvement in water clarity and confidence in your system’s disinfection capabilities. During the first few days and weeks, the lamp works consistently to neutralize microorganisms, providing peace of mind for your household or facility.
Over time, regular replacement as part of your UV equipment maintenance schedule will keep performance optimal. The lamp’s durable construction supports long-term reliability, minimizing the need for frequent interventions and helping you maintain a safe water system with ease.
