Oasis to launches first water cooler with Philips InstantTrust disinfector inside

March 20th, 2012 by nwp

Oasis International announced its new partnership with Philips Lighting for the integration of the InstantTrust UV-disinfector in its water coolers. The first water dispensed from coolers can be disinfected instantly and efficiently, on-demand with the Philips InstantTrust solution and will soon be available in the Oasis Kalix water cooler, the Aqua Pointe and VersaFiller® bottle fillers.

Quick disinfection
Philips InstantTrust disinfects water as its being dispensed, up to 4 liters/minute, its simple and quick disinfection process is ideal for water dispensing solutions such as OASIS’ bottle refill stations and water coolers. Its unique design works independently of water temperature, disinfecting both hot and cold water on-demand.

Entire Oasis’ product line
The new Philips InstantTrust solution is designed to fit point-of-use water delivery solutions including taps, water pitchers, under-sink water filters and portable counter-top systems. Oasis and Philips keep working closely to make it possible to integrate the InstantTrust into its entire product line.
The Kalix will be the first of the Oasis water cooler line to include Philips InstantTrust. It’s the industry’s only cooler with the revolutionary Pressure Vessel Direct Chill (PVDC) system, in a stylish, modern design.

Cleaner and better-tasting water
John Kucharik, CEO and President of OASIS states: “We’re very proud to be working in partnership with Philips Lighting and providing this unique, state-of-the-art UV disinfection technology in our water coolers and bottle fillers. By adding Philips InstantTrust into our water coolers and bottle fillers we’re the only company to offer a solution that disinfects water just before it’s served. This partnership exemplifies our commitment to developing innovative water-friendly solutions that provide fresh, great-tasting, safer water for everyone, everywhere.”

Hendrik-Jan Dreuning, Global Marketing Director UV Purification at Philips Lighting stated: “Philips is committed to enhancing people’s health and well-being, and thanks to InstantTrust, we can ensure cleaner water is always within reach: anytime, anywhere. We’re pleased to be working Oasis, a global company that offers innovative solutions for water coolers, and look forward to a rewarding partnership. Together we’ll be making safer water available for people around the world.”

Philips new point of use UV-filter treats pathogens instantly

November 9th, 2011 by nwp

Philips Special Lighting launched its new InstantTrust point of use (POU) system at the Aquatech Amsterdam 2011 trade fair on November 2.

The new UV-filter has the latest UV-light technology and solves limitations of current UV-technology. For instance, when switched on, it kills all pathogens immediately. Another remarkable capability is the fact that it can treat both hot and cold water.

Part of smaller water equipment
Philips InstantTrust is very compact so it allows manufacturers to integrate the solution into smaller equipment than ever before and gives them stylistic freedom to design sleek products ideal for the small and modern home. The POU filter is ideal for instant disinfection of small quantities of cold water (up to flows of approximately 4 liters/minute).

State-of-the-art UV disinfection technology
Frank Kauffmann, General Manager Special Lighting said: “We are very proud to be launching this unique, state-of-the-art UV disinfection technology today: It is a testament to our continued commitment to developing innovative technologies that help enhance the health and quality of people’s lives.”
