A radiation source module comprising a support member, a radiation source assembly connected to the support member, the radiation source assembly comprising at least one elongate radiation source having a source longitudinal axis and a module-to-surface seal disposed on a first elongate surface of the module, the first elongate surface comprising a first longitudinal axis transverse to the source longitudinal axis, the seal operable to provide a substantially fluid tight seal between the first surface and a second surface which is adjacent to the first surface. A fluid treatment system employ the radiation source module is also described.

Fluid treatment system and radiation source module for use therein

A fluid treatment system for placement in a flanged pipe fluid conveyance system includes: a first flanged opening and a second flanged opening in substantial alignment to define a flow axis aligned substantially parallel to a direction of fluid flow though the first opening and the second opening; and a third flanged opening comprising a first cover element. The first cover element has connected thereto at least one radiation source assembly comprising at least one elongate radiation source having a longitudinal axis substantially transverse to the flow axis. The fluid treatment system may be advantageously utilized to treat fluid such as water, e.g., municipal waste water, municipal drinking water and the like. The fluid treatment system can be readily 'spliced' into existing into existing piping systems. This facilitates installation of the system and also allows for a significant lowering of manufacturing costs of the system.

Fluid treatment system

Fluid treatment system and radiation sources module for use therein

A cleaning apparatus for a radiation source assembly in a fluid treatment system is described. The cleaning apparatus comprises: a carriage movable with respect to an exterior of the radiation source assembly; at least one cleaning sleeve in sliding engagement with the exterior of the radiation source assembly, the at least one cleaning sleeve being moveable with respect to the carriage; and drive means coupled to the carriage to translate the carriage whereby the at least one cleaning sleeve is translated over the exterior of the radiation source assembly. A radiation source module comprising the cleaning apparatus is also disclosed. The radiation source module is particularly useful for ultraviolet radiation of wastewater while having the advantages of in situ cleaning of the radiation source when it becomes fouled. Radiation source replacement is also facilitated.
