Proof Is In The Science Regardless of UV system manufacturer claims, the Spectra Chart below clearly illustrates just how much more efficient LP UV technology is compared to MP at inactivating waterborne pathogens and Chloramines. The chart reveals the spectral output of both LP and MP UV lamps and the specific light-spectra that inactivates pathogen-DNA, Chloramines and Free-Chlorine.
