A method of cleaning fouling materials from a radiation module, the method comprising the steps of: (i) immersing at least a portion of the radiation module in a fluid; and (ii) subjecting the radiation module to vibration at a frequency sufficient to substantially inhibit fouling materials adhering to the at least one radiation source. A radiation module for use in a fluid treatment system comprising: a support member for mounting the module in the fluid treatment system; at least one radiation assembly extending from the support member; and a vibration generator associated with the at least one radiation assembly. The radiation module is self-cleaning and can take the form of a radiation source module or a radiation sensor module. Incorporation of the radiation source module in a fluid treatment system is also described. |
