Abstract:
A device for disinfecting water of a swimming pool, comprising an inlet for water from the swimming pool and an outlet for the water, an ozonation device, and a mixing section for ozone-containing water, wherein the ozonation device comprises at least one UV light source for generating ozone, and an admixing unit for admixing the generated ozone to the water of the inlet, and the mixing section comprises a housing which is connected to the inlet, wherein the UV light source is arranged within the housing so as to emit UV light directed into the housing interior. It is proposed according to the invention that the housing has deflecting surfaces for water protruding into the housing interior, which ensure a meandering flow within housing. The device according to the invention enables improved disinfection and can be designed to be more space-saving and visually appealing than conventional devices.

Claim (Index 1):
A device for disinfecting water of a swimming pool, comprising:\n an inlet for water from the swimming pool and an outlet for the water, an ozonation device, and a mixing section for ozone-containing water, wherein:\n the ozonation device includes at least one UV light source for generating ozone, and an admixing unit for admixing the generated ozone to the water of the inlet, \n the mixing section comprises a housing which is connected to the inlet, \n the at least one UV light source is arranged within the housing so as to emit UV light directed into the housing interior, \n the housing has two deflecting surfaces for the water which protrude into the housing interior, which form a first housing chamber, a second housing chamber and a flow channel located between the deflecting surfaces within the housing, wherein:\n to ensure a meandering flow within the housing the inlet opens into a lower region of the first housing chamber, the first housing chamber opens in an upper region into an upper end of the flow channel, the flow channel opens with its lower end into a lower region of the second housing chamber and the second housing chamber opens into an outlet in an upper region, and within the first housing chamber and the second housing chamber in each case a UV light source provided with a casing and crossing the respective housing chamber is arranged, and \n the casings of the two UV light sources are connected to one another via an air flow channel which has a suction opening for air and a discharge opening connected to the admixing unit.
