WEDECO Quadron

The WEDECO Quadron™ system is the ideal solution whenever the space available for installing a UV disinfection system is at a premium. With a reactor length of just 1,200 millimeters (47.24”) and a maximum flowrate of 4,100 m³/h (26 MGD), this UV system offers tremendous flexibility and capability for water treatment plants large and small.

The unique shape, in conjunction with the patented OptiCone™ flow diverter at the inlet, guarantees excellent flow conditions at every installation situation. Even with a close coupled 90 degree bend, the OptiCone™ still ensures even flow distribution without turbulence or cavitation.

Fitted with variable power medium pressure UV lamps, the Quadronsystem is designed for high performance in order to ensure successful disinfection and is ready for every eventuality. The chemical-free cleaning system and one sensor-per lamp monitoring system ensure that correct UV dose is always applied.

The safest choice in the medium range

During the validation of the WEDECO Quadron system in accordance with the US Environmental Protection Agency’s UV Disinfection Guidance Manual (UVDGM), not only different quartz sleeves materials have been tested but also other influencing factors, such as the spectral absorption of the water (between 200 and 320 nm).

As a result of the extensive validation testing conducted for the Quadron unit, it is now possible to safely design and operate a medium pressure drinking water system.

Efficient Disinfection, Through Superior Design

Thanks to its compact dimensions, high UV performance and optimized flow conditions, the WEDECO Quadron system is the ideal alternative to chlorination systems or outdated UV systems.

From the bend to the straight

The patented OptiCone™ flow diverter is the result of intensive development work using complex Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations. Using its three guide pipes, the diverter channels the flow into the optimum distribution across the lamps. Even with 90 degree feeds, the OptiCone still achieves even flow distibution without turbulence or cavitation.

Field bus reduces installation effort

A compact junction box is used to gather all sensor signals and field bus technology is used to transfer these to the control cabinet. This considerably reduces the wiring work required locally and makes the installation less susceptible to electrical interference signals.

Consistent performance across the entire length

The WEDECO Multiray™ high performance medium pressure UV lamps span the entire radiation chamber, irradiating the complete water column. This ensures even disinfection right into the last corner. Each Multiray lamp is monitored by its own US EPA-compliant UV sensor. A chemical-free cleaning system cleans the quartz sleeves and the windows of the sensors automatically, thereby guaranteeing a consistent high level of disinfection.

Maintenance made easy

All fittings are easy to access and are arranged along one side to simplify regular maintenance. In addition to UV lamps, it is also possible to replace the sensors quickly and easily without having to empty the radiation chamber. A service hatch enables work to be carried out inside the system. The wiper rings can be changed with ease without requiring tools.

Square design reduces pressure loss

Unlike other medium pressure systems, the square design means that there are no dead zones in the flow. This means that there is very little head loss and no need for additional pumps either up- or downstream. Combined with the OptiCone the design results in optimal flow distribution.

The electronic ballast is optimized to the UV lamps to create a particularly high level of operational safety and long lamp life. The output is continuously adjustable from 30-100%, allowing the automatic dose controller of the Quadron system to always operate at maximum efficiency. Thus, increasing the UV systems lamp life and minimizing power consumption.
