QUICK TECHNICAL ANSWER

What is a TOC UV Degradation System?

KONCHE TOC UV systems: the 185 nm polishing stage that photo-oxidizes organics into CO₂ and water — the end-of-train guarantee of ≤0.5 μg/L TOC at 0.5–20 m³/h.

What it delivers

  • Outlet TOC ≤0.5 μg/L from feed water up to 50 μg/L
  • Dual-wavelength duty: 185 nm destroys TOC while 254 nm sterilizes simultaneously
  • Compact in-line 316L body — retrofittable to new and existing recirculating loops

Why trust KONCHE

  • Nearly 30 years matching TOC-UV stages inside ultrapure-water trains
  • Imported synthetic-quartz lamps, 8,000–10,000 h life with high 185 nm transmission
  • Ionized by-products captured by the downstream polishing bed — sizing verified against your water report

PRODUCT DOCUMENTATION

Dual-wavelength 185 nm + 254 nm UV for TOC degradation and microbial control in ultrapure-water loops. The system is typically installed after EDI or a polishing mixed bed, with selected configurations targeting TOC ≤0.5 μg/L and flow of 0.5–20 m³/h.

KONCHE TOC systems use 185+254 nm dual-wavelength lamps in 316L electropolished chambers with synthetic-quartz sleeves. Capacities span 0.5–20 m³/h with lamp life 8,000–10,000 h; the unit installs after EDI, before or after the polishing mixed bed. Typical projects: semiconductor wafer rinsing, PCB/FPC cleaning, pharmaceutical purified water, optoelectronic panels and laboratory ICP-MS/HPLC water.

Installed after EDI or a polishing mixed bed; selected configurations target TOC ≤0.5 μg/L at 0.5–20 m³/h. 316L chamber, synthetic quartz sleeve, lamp life 8,000–10,000 hours.
TOC UV WORKING PRINCIPLE — 185 nm photolysis generates hydroxyl radicals (·OH) that oxidize trace organics into removable species, while 254 nm output provides microbial inactivation; installed after EDI or the polishing mixed bed.

The 185 nm wavelength generates hydroxyl radicals that oxidize organic compounds. The 254 nm wavelength provides microbial inactivation. Together they reduce organic load and protect high-purity water quality.

FAQ

Why are two wavelengths used?

185 nm supports organic oxidation while 254 nm supports microbial inactivation.

Where is TOC UV installed?

It is normally installed after EDI or a polishing mixed bed, close to the ultrapure-water storage or distribution loop.

What TOC can be achieved?

Selected configurations target ≤0.5 μg/L. Actual performance depends on feed-water TOC, flow, UV transmittance, lamp condition and system design.

How is lamp life managed?

Track operating hours and UV intensity, clean quartz regularly and replace the lamp when intensity or operating hours reach the maintenance limit.
