Abstract: The invention relates to a device and method for UV irradiation of treated waste water. The device comprises a plurality of UV modules, each UV module being an immersed radiator that comprises a low-pressure mercury radiator surrounded by a round sheathing tube permeable to UV rays. Each UV module is assigned to an irradiation chamber of square cross-section, the midpoint of which is also the midpoint of the UV radiator. The distance between the UV modules is selected in such a way that the cross-sectional area of the irradiation chamber of each UV module is not more than ten times larger than the cross-sectional area of the UV module itself.
Abstract: A gaiter or bellows for a power-assisted steering system for motor vehicles is connected on one hand to a steering gear housing and on the other hand to an adjacent track rod. The gaiter or bellows is characterized in that it is manufactured at least partially from a gas permeable, liquid repellent material. In a common configuration the power assisted steering system has a steering rod disposed in a general longitudinally extending manner in a steering gear housing as well as having track rods associated with the steering rack. The gaiter or bellows is connected in such an application at one end to the steering gear housing and at the other end to an adjacent track rod.
