The present invention concerns a device () for the photochemical treatment of a liquid medium, the device () having at least one flow channel () for the liquid medium to pass through, said flow channel being delimited at least in sections by a UV-light-emitting surface () of at least one UV-light-producing body (). The at least one UV-light-producing body () is designed such that the passing liquid medium can be electrically contacted and replaces at least one electrode for producing the UV light in the device ().

Device for the photochemical treatment or cleaning of a liquid medium

The invention relates to a device for producing UV light. Said device provides light from light sources that operate in accordance with different physical principles. The device comprises a chamber having several gas-filled plasma chambers (), wherein the chamber has at least one area () transparent to UV light and/or VUV light. A first group () of plasma chambers is filled with an ionizable gas containing mercury and a second group () of plasma chambers is filled with a gas that forms excimers when suitably excited.
