A disinfection reactor (7) is provided in a device for disinfecting water flowing through a sanitary device. A flash lamp generating a UV light, more particularly a xenon-quartz flash lamp (14), is located inside said reactor. The water flowing through is impinged upon by the flashes of said flash lamp (14) and the germs contained therein are killed. In order to enhance the service life of the flash lamp (14) and reduce energy consumption of the device, a through-flow rate sensor (6) is located in the water path (1). The output signals of said sensor, which represent the rate of water flowing through per time unit, are fed to a microprocessor (11) that controls the pulse generator (12), whose output signals serve to feed the flash lamp (14), in such a way that the repetition frequency of said signals increases as the amount of water measured per time unit rises. |
