Service Systems International Receives Order for Full-Scale Production Demonstration Unit from USFilter
July 19, 2001: VANCOUVER, British Columbia – Service Systems International, Ltd. (OTCBB: SVSY) announces the supply of a new full-scale Production Demonstration Unit (PDU) of its patented Ultra Guard® UV wastewater disinfection system to USFilter’s Wallace and Tiernan Products, the Company’s Strategic Alliance partner in North, South and Central America and the Caribbean.
Service Systems will supply a full-scale testing demonstration unit for exclusive use by USFilter’s Wallace and Tiernan Products at locations in North America. This unit will be manufactured at Service Systems’ facilities near Vancouver, Canada. The PDU will include the latest Ultra Guard® technology including the patented Single Lamp Reactor (SLR), fully automated computer operation and quartz sleeve cleaning features. USFilter’s Wallace and Tiernan Products has dedicated the support equipment and staffing resources to operate the unit at wastewater treatment facility demonstration sites.
The full-scale PDU offers significant advantages in marketing the Ultra Guard® UV disinfection system. By locating the unit on-site at a potential customer’s facility, the testing can provide accurate assessment of the disinfection capabilities and demonstrate the significant operational cost saving in a potential client’s actual conditions. Potential customers can better identify specific problems that may be particular to their wastewater flow. This real world testing results in better project capital cost estimates, more accurate need assessments leading ultimately to greater client satisfaction.
Prior to the Strategic Alliance, the use of existing PDU systems as a testing mechanism by Service Systems has resulted directly in contracts or opportunities for future business with the customer participating in the trial.
“We are pleased to provide our Strategic Alliance partner with this outstanding tool that verifies the capabilities and benefits of the Ultra Guard® disinfection system,” said President, Ken Fielding. “USFilter’s Wallace and Tiernan Products has committed the resources to see our product properly demonstrated in real world conditions.
