3.

The POU system can process how many litres/min
- 20
- 11
- 25
- 45
- 8
Correct Answer

A. 11

POU - point of USE therefore it is a small unit - 11 l / min. At that maximum flow rate sufficient UV dose is guaranteed. Above 11l/min it is possible insufficient UV dose will be achieved

Rate this question:
4.

There are many ways to purify water. Sterilight uses which method to sterilize water?
- Reverse Osmosis
- Micro Filtration
- 5 Micron Filter
- Ultra Violet (UV)
Correct Answer

A. Ultra Violet (UV)

Explanation

It uses ultraviolet light to alter the structure of DNA in bacteria and viruses to make them inactive. Sterilizing water is NOT the same as filtering water - filtering water only removes particles larger than the set filter size. Sterilight does use filters before UV to remove particles.

Rate this question:
5.

Does a carbon filter effectively sterilize water for drinking?
- True
- False
Correct Answer

A. False

Explanation

No, a carbon filter (like those sold in retailers to fit taps) is only suitable for removing certain organic materials such as chlorine. It does not make water safe to drink.

Rate this question:
6.

RO (Reverse Osmosis) which is a different method of water purification is often used in residential applications because it can produce high volumes of water and does not need a storage tank.
- True
- False
Correct Answer

A. False

Explanation

False - as RO uses water pressure to force water through a very fine membrane it has a reduced capacity vs UV. Generally it needs a storage tank as it cannot produce enough water as the tap is turned on

Rate this question:
7.

UV water sterilisation is very effective when treating water from a bore-hole that is not clear as it contains lots of particles.
- True
- False
Correct Answer

A. False

Explanation

UV may not be suitable without some additional pre-filtration as if the water is very unclear those particles can reflect UV light and make it less effective. In such a situation Pennyware recommends the client first conduct a water analysis that we can arrange for the client. Thereafter we can recommend additional filtration if needed.

Rate this question:
8.

Is Sterilight UV effective in treating waterborne bacteria and viruses that are resistant to chlorine?
- True
- False
Correct Answer

A. True

Explanation

Yes, sometimes chlorine is NOT effective against some water-borne diseases. UV is very effective against most if not all such diseases. UV alters the DNA structure of a bacteria/virus thus making it inactive.

Rate this question:
9.

When using a Sterilight UV system it does the following to the water taste and looks.
- Give a slight chlorine taste
- The water has a metallic taste
- It does not change the taste of water as UV adds no chemicals
- The water colour changes slightly
Correct Answer

A. It does not change the taste of water as UV adds no chemicals

Explanation

UV is not a chemical process so it does nota lter the taste of water at all. It is simply UV light exposed to water. No chemicals are added.

Rate this question:
10.

Does a Sterilight UV system use any pre-filtration before UV sterilization?
- True
- False
Correct Answer

A. True

Explanation

Yes, 5 micron sediment filter to remove particles and a carbon filter to remove organic materials such as chlorine.

Rate this question:
11.

The Sterilight units have 2 pre filters before UV sterilisation. What is the first filter used for (the 5micron filter)
- Remove chlorine taste
- Remove viruses
- Remove particles and dirt that is less than 5 microns in size
- Remove particles and dirt that is more than 5 microns in size
Correct Answer

A. Remove particles and dirt that is more than 5 microns in size

Explanation

a human hair is approx 75micron so this removes particles a lot smaller than human hair. A human red blood cell is about 5 micron in size. many bacteria and viruses are smaller than 5 micron and therefore UV is needed after filtering to inactivate them.

Rate this question:
12.

The second pre filter in the Sterilight system is an activated carbon filter. What does it do?
- Removes organics such as chlorine
- Removes carbon from the water
- Adds activated carbon to give water a better taste
- Nothing
Correct Answer

A. Removes organics such as chlorine

Explanation

Charcoal is carbon. Activated charcoal is charcoal that has been treated with oxygen to open up millions of tiny pores between the carbon atoms. The use of special manufacturing techniques results in highly porous charcoals that have surface areas of 300-2,000 square metres per gram. These so-called active, or activated, charcoals are widely used to adsorb odorous or coloured substances from gases or liquids.
The word adsorb is important here. When a material adsorbs something, it attaches to it by chemical attraction. The huge surface area of activated charcoal gives it countless bonding sites. When certain chemicals pass next to the carbon surface, they attach to the surface and are trapped.
Activated charcoal is good at trapping other carbon-based impurities ("organic" chemicals), as well as things like chlorine. Many other chemicals are not attracted to carbon at all -- sodium, nitrates, etc. -- so they pass right through. This means that an activated charcoal filter will remove certain impurities while ignoring others. It also means that, once all of the bonding sites are filled, an activated charcoal filter stops working. At that point you must replace the filter.

Rate this question:
13.

Does UV treat E Coli bacteria?
- True
- False
Correct Answer

A. True

Explanation

Yes, e coli is a water borne bacteria that is very effectively treated by UV - this is important in areas such as Grahamstown in the E Cape where e coli from sewage has contaminated drinking water lines due to poor maintenance practice

Rate this question:
14.

How do you know if the Sterilight UV system is working?
- Has an audible alarm to notify you the lamp is not working
- Has a visual countdown and count-up monitor showing lifetime of lamp
- The system automatically shuts down if there is a problem
- The system shuts off the water if there is a lamp problem
Correct Answer(s)

A. Has an audible alarm to notify you the lamp is not working
A. Has a visual countdown and count-up monitor showing lifetime of lamp

Rate this question:
15.

How much does it cost in electricity to run a Sterilight POU system
- About the same as 20W light bulb (around 2c/hour) (R15 per month)
- The same as a kettle
- About the same as a geyer - around 2000W/hour
Correct Answer

A. About the same as 20W light bulb (around 2c/hour) (R15 per month)

Explanation

UV from Sterilight uses very liitle electricity- 2c per hour = around R15/month

Rate this question:
16.

Does a Sterilight UV system need an electrical connection?
- True
- False
Correct Answer

A. True

Explanation

A Sterilight UV system does require an electrical connection. UV systems use ultraviolet light to disinfect water by killing bacteria and viruses. In order for the system to generate the UV light, it needs to be connected to a power source. Without an electrical connection, the UV system would not be able to function and effectively treat the water. Therefore, the statement "True" is correct.

Rate this question:
17.

What type of electrical connection does a Sterilight UV system use
- 3 phase 320V
- 3 phase 220v
- Standard 220V residential supply
- 12V system - you need a step down transformer to convert from 220V to 12V
Correct Answer

A. Standard 220V residential supply

The unit is supplied complete with a 2 prong plug for a normal house plug

Rate this question:
18.

The UV lamp needs replacing after how long?
- 9000 hours
- 365 Days
- 19 000hours
- 180 days
Correct Answer(s)

A. 9000 hours
A. 365 Days

Explanation

The UV lamp loses around 10% of its effectiveness after a year - this happens slowly. While it will still work it is not recommended as it cannot be guaranteed to be effective. Many chinese equivalent units loose around 40% UV effectiveness after 3 months so a big difference in quality

Rate this question:
19.

Why does the UV lamp need replacing?
- It gradually loses its effectiveness but will still work after the recommeded replacement time but not at the most effective level to guarantee effectiveness in treatment
- It suddenly loses its effectiveness and if not replaced on time will not work at all
Correct Answer

A. It gradually loses its effectiveness but will still work after the recommeded replacement time but not at the most effective level to guarantee effectiveness in treatment

Explanation

The UV lamp needs replacing because it gradually loses its effectiveness over time. Although it may still work after the recommended replacement time, it will not be at the most effective level to guarantee effectiveness in treatment.

Rate this question:
20.

What is the maximum working pressure for Sterilight UV systems
- 6bar
- 11bar
- 8bar
Correct Answer

A. 8bar

Explanation

It is important the water pressure < 8 bar to protect connections and also ensure water flow rates are matched to UV availability. Above 8 bar needs a PRV to be fitted which we can supply

Rate this question:
21.

Why do you need to make sure a Sterilight UV system does not operate at higher than the recommended water inlet pressure
- The inlet is too small
- The UV dosing may be less effective as water will flow faster through the chamber than designed for at excessive water pressure and so water may not receive a sufficient UV dose.
- There could be a risk of mechanical failure of a connection fitting or filter housing at higher than recommended pressures
- The 5 micron filter is not designed to operate at pressures higher than 5bar
Correct Answer(s)

A. The UV dosing may be less effective as water will flow faster through the chamber than designed for at excessive water pressure and so water may not receive a sufficient UV dose.
A. There could be a risk of mechanical failure of a connection fitting or filter housing at higher than recommended pressures

Explanation

Operating a Sterilight UV system at higher than the recommended water inlet pressure can have several negative consequences. Firstly, the UV dosing may be less effective as water will flow faster through the chamber than designed for at excessive water pressure. This means that the water may not receive a sufficient UV dose, leading to ineffective disinfection. Additionally, there is a risk of mechanical failure of connection fittings or filter housings at higher pressures, which can result in leaks or breakages. It is also mentioned that the 5 micron filter is not designed to operate at pressures higher than 5bar, further emphasizing the importance of maintaining the recommended water inlet pressure.

Rate this question:
22.

When recommending a UV system is it important to work out how many litres per minute a client will be using?
- True
- False
Correct Answer

A. True

Explanation

Yes, because a certain amount of UV is required per litre of water through the chamber so a higher requirement may need a larger unit. We offer non stocked units that can process many hundreds of litres per minute for large commercial applications.

Rate this question:
23.

How often should a client change the 5 micron pre filter and the carbon filter
- It depends on the water quality and water source
- Every 9000 hours
- Every 3 months
Correct Answer

A. It depends on the water quality and water source

Explanation

For normal municipal tap water the pre filters should last a year and can be changed when the UV lamp is changed. For borehole water etc, depending on the water quality, 6 month change interval is better,

If a client paid R5 000 for a POU system and after a year paid R95 for a replacement 5 micron cartridge plus R155 for a replacement carbon filter and R790 for the replacement UV lamp, how much would it have cost the client for a whole year PER LITRE OF WATER used for drinking in the family, assuming the family used 5l of water per day each day of the year Based on your answer would the client have saved money or spent more money using the system rather than buying bottled water that cost R5/litre?
- R3.31 per litre
- R5.25 per litre
- Client would have saved money (Saved R3 085)
- Client would have spent more money (Spent R500 more) by installing a POU system
Correct Answer(s)

A. R3.31 per litre
A. Client would have saved money (Saved R3 085)

Explanation

The cost per litre of water used for drinking in the family for a whole year can be calculated by adding up the costs of the replacement cartridges, filter, and UV lamp and dividing it by the total litres of water used. In this case, the cost would be (R95 + R155 + R790) / (5l/day * 365 days) = R3.31 per litre. Therefore, the client would have saved money by installing the POU system, as the cost per litre is lower than the cost of buying bottled water at R5/litre. In total, the client would have saved R3,085.

The Sterilight system is supplied with a 5 micron pre filter for removing sediment and particles. Will it remove a human hair? if so approximately how large is a human hair in micros?
- Yes it will remove a human hair
- No - a human hair is less than 5 microns
- A human hair is approximately 75 microns (much larger than 5 micros
- A human hair is around 2 microns (smaller) so will pass through the filter
Correct Answer(s)

A. Yes it will remove a human hair
A. A human hair is approximately 75 microns (much larger than 5 micros

Explanation

A "micron" is an abbreviated term for "micrometer", or a millionth of a meter (1/1,000,000 meters). This is about .00004 inches. For Size comparison, a human red blood cell is about 5 microns across. A human hair is about 75 microns across (depending on the person). Bacteria can be between about .2 microns and 3 microns in size. Therefore the 5 micron filter removes most particles but UV sterilization is needed to inactivate bacteria and viruses less than 5 micron size
