    摘要: There is described In another of its aspects, the present invention provides a radiation source assembly comprising: (i) an elongate radiation source; (ii) a positioning element connected to a proximal portion of the elongate radiation source; and (iii) a connecting portion secured to a proximal portion of the positioning element and configured to engage a support element to maintain a distal portion of the elongate radiation source in a cantilevered position. The present radiation source assembly is configured such that the distal portion of the radiation source is cantilevered with the respect to the distal portion of the protective sleeve in which it is disposed. This feature obviates the need to use spacers, stops, springs and the like in a distal portion of the protective sleeve to maintain correct position of the radiation source within the protective sleeve. Further, the present radiation source assembly is advantageous in that allows for withdrawal of the radiation source from the radiation source assembly without the need to disengage all of the components. Thus, it is possible to replace a single radiation source by removing it from the protective sleeve during operation of the fluid treatment system. This operation can be accomplished quickly without the need to shut down the fluid treatment system or otherwise compensate for the fact that one of the radiation source is being serviced.

    摘要翻译: 在其另一方面,本发明提供了一种辐射源组件,其包括:(i)细长辐射源; (ii)连接到所述细长辐射源的近端部分的定位元件; 和(iii)固定到所述定位元件的近端部分并被构造成接合支撑元件以将所述细长辐射源的远侧部分保持在悬臂位置的连接部分。 本辐射源组件被配置为使得辐射源的远端部分相对于其所配置的保护套筒的远端部分是悬臂的。 该特征避免了在保护套管的远端部分中使用间隔件,止动件,弹簧等以保持辐射源在保护套筒内的正确位置的需要。 此外,本辐射源组件的优点在于允许辐射源从辐射源组件中取出,而不需要使所有部件脱离。 因此,可以在流体处理系统的操作期间将其从保护套筒中取出来替换单个辐射源。 该操作可以快速完成,而不需要关闭流体处理系统或以其他方式补偿辐射源中的一个被维修的事实。

    摘要: There is described a fluid treatment system. The fluid treatment system comprises: an open channel for receiving a flow of fluid and a fluid treatment zone. The fluid treatment zone comprising a plurality of elongate radiation source assemblies orientated such that: (i) a longitudinal axis of each radiation source assembly is transverse to a direction of fluid flow through the fluid treatment zone, and (ii) an end of each radiation source assembly is disposed above a predetermined maximum height of fluid flow in the open channel. A first baffle plate is disposed upstream of the fluid treatment zone. The first baffle plate is positioned such that a distal end thereof is below the predetermined maximum height of fluid flow in the open channel. In a preferred embodiment, the present fluid treatment system provides for an area in which a cleaning system for the radiation source assemblies can be “parked” when not in use. In the so-called “parked” position, the cleaning system may be readily accessed for servicing and the like without affecting the flow of fluid through the fluid treatment zone and a fluid treatment system. This is as significant advantage of the fluid treatment system.

The slidable element is: (i) coupled to the cleaning carriage, and (ii) magnetically coupled to a driving element disposed within the elongate housing. The elongate motive element has a second longitudinal axis that is oriented in a substantially parallel, non-coaxial relationship with respect to the first longitudinal axis. There is also disclosed a fluid treatment system comprising: a fluid treatment zone for receiving a flow of fluid; at least one elongate radiation source assembly disposed in the fluid treatment zone; a cleaning apparatus having at least one cleaning element in contact with an exterior surface of the at least one elongate radiation source assembly; and a motive element coupled to the cleaning system. The elongate radiation source assembly has a longitudinal axis disposed transverse to a direction of fluid flow through the fluid treatment zone and a distal end of the at least one elongate radiation source assembly is spaced from a surface of the fluid treatment zone to define a gap. The motive element is operable to move the cleaning system between a retracted position and an extended position.
