KemConnect™ DEX benefits include

Effective and sustainable disinfection at low doses

PFA is highly effective at low doses with flexible disinfectant feed rates.

Because PFA is chlorine-free and does not produce toxic by-products, KemConnect DEX is a sustainable disinfection strategy.

Cost efficient and convenient

Unlike UV disinfection, KemConnect DEX requires a low capital investment and has a low energy demand, decreasing your operational costs. The on-site PFA production system is compact and can be used to disinfect all kinds of water.

Automated dosing and full process visibility

The disinfection process is monitored and controlled through a secure online platform. Customized email and SMS notifications and reports keep you informed about the process status.
