Abstract
A water disinfection chamber includes one or more UVC LEDs. The chamber is constructed of Teflon or employs a Teflon PTFE liner to increase UV reflections through the volume of the chamber. LEDs are positioned in specific locations to both provide maximum UV intensity in the main fluid flow path and an angle to allow enough reflections to fill the chamber with UV light to disinfect the fluid flowing through the chamber. The chamber is scalable in size and in the number of LEDs employed including the number of rings where LEDs are located.
