Nuvonic UV Systems gain NVI approval, enhancing aquaculture biosecurity worldwide

October 25, 2023 - Nuvonic, a global UV technology solutions provider, today announced it has received approval from the Norwegian Veterinary Institute (NVI), a renowned biomedical research institute specialising in biosecurity. This achievement highlights the reliability, efficiency and biosecurity improvements in Nuvonic's UV water treatment systems for aquaculture businesses worldwide.

The NVI, renowned for its commitment to the well-being of fish, animals and humans, has approved Nuvonic's entire range of USEPA-validated Proline PQ IL (Inline) units. After rigorous testing to meet strict aquaculture biosecurity standards, these now fall under the 'RASline' banner. In a fast-growing industry with higher stock densities and stricter environmental rules, there's an urgent need for chemical-free disinfection to curb fish diseases and environmental harm. Nuvonic's RASLine range safeguards aquatic life, processes and the environment without chemicals.

Nuvonic provides six RASline models specially designed for efficient water treatment. Using medium-pressure UVC lamps, these UV systems are compact and energy-efficient. They can be customised to target specific microorganisms and precise dosages.

Owre Johnsen, a leading industrial equipment provider based in Norway, is partnering with Nuvonic and believes the NVI-approved UV systems will give further confidence in meeting the aquaculture industry's biosecurity measures. 

Danny van Kuringen, Regional Sales Manager - Central Europe, Nuvonic, said, "We're honoured to receive endorsement from the Norwegian Veterinary Institute. Nuvonic's NVI-approved UV systems empower aquaculture businesses by providing USEPA-validated UV equipment to prevent fish diseases. This means our systems offer precise UV treatment control, enhanced effectiveness thanks to multi-wavelength lamp tech, space-saving designs, energy efficiency and efficient management of high water flows. It translates to healthier aquatic life, sustainable processes and a more successful aqua cultural venture."

The NVI's endorsement process encompasses a rigorous evaluation comprising theoretical and practical assessments. Nuvonic has provided comprehensive validation results, technical data and capacity tables. It culminated in a live field test of the UV systems at a fish farm, ensuring that Nuvonic's UV solutions consistently deliver their promised performance and biosecurity enhancements.

Extending its global footprint, Nuvonic remains committed to growing its network of partners, fostering trust and enhancing security within aquaculture operations across Europe, South America, Africa and other regions.
