Abstract: There is disclosed an optical radiation sensor system for detecting radiation from a radiation source. The system comprises: a housing having a distal portion for receiving radiation from the radiation source and a proximal portion; a sensor element in communication with the proximal portion, the sensor element configured to detect and respond to incident radiation received from the radiation source; and motive means configured to move the housing with respect to the sensor element between at least a first position and a second position. A radiation pathway is defined between the radiation source and the sensor element when the housing is in at least one of the first position and the second position. Movement of the housing with respect to the sensor element causes a modification of intensity of radiation impinging on the sensor element. In its highly preferred embodiment, the radiation sensor system is of a modular design rendering the sensor system appropriate for use with one or more of various radiation sources, fluid thickness layers and/or in UVT conditions. In this highly preferred form, the sensor system may have built-in diagnostics for parameters such as sensor operation, radiation source output, fluid (e.g., water) UVT, radiation source fouling (e.g., fouling of the protective sleeves surrounding the radiation source) and the like. Other advantages of the present radiation sensor system include: incorporation of an integrated reference sensor, safe and ready reference sensor testing, UVT measurement capability and/or relatively low cost and ease of manufacture.

The first flow path may provided treated liquid at a first outlet (2816) of the liquid treatment system (2804). A second flow path included in the liquid treatment system may provide untreated liquid at a second outlet (2818) of the liquid treatment system (2804). The first and second flow paths may be included in a housing (2808), and may be selectable with a switching mechanism by a user of the liquid treatment system (2804). The housing (2808) may be mounted at the end of a faucet (2802). The hydro-generator (2992) may generate electric power for use by the ultraviolet light source (2984) and a processor. The processor may monitor the electric power and energize the ultraviolet light source (2984) with the electric power when the rotational speed of the hydro-generator (2992) enters a determined range.

Abstract: An ultraviolet fluid treatment system having feedback control using a kinetic model and a reactor model that interact with one another. The kinetic model uses readily measured fluid properties upstream and downstream of a radiation zone to calculate the conversion of a target contaminant as it passes through the fluid treatment system. This obviates the need to measure the contaminant concentration directly, which generally is too slow to permit real-time control. A reactor model relates system operating cost to system operating parameters, such as electrical power consumption and/or rate of oxidant addition, where applicable. The reactor model is linked to the kinetic model and is used to optimize operating cost by adjusting system operating parameters based on a comparison between the conversion obtained from the kinetic model and the overall treatment objectives. A control center, an ultraviolet fluid treatment apparatus, and a method of treating a fluid are also disclosed.
