For safe and bacteria-free drinking water, a UV choke (electronic ballast) is one of the most important parts of your RO + UV purifier. If the UV lamp is not glowing or sterilization isn’t working, the choke usually needs replacement.
At Romegamart, you can buy 100% original UV chokes compatible with all major brands like Kent, Aquaguard, Livpure, and Pureit—available at both wholesale and retail prices.
A UV choke regulates voltage and current to the UV lamp inside your water purifier. It ensures the lamp runs at the right intensity and lasts longer.
Functions of a UV Choke:
