The water detection electrode 10 is one in which two electrodes made of titanium, stainless steel, copper, platinum-plated titanium, or the like are separated from each other, and a power source of 24 V AC or less is constantly applied. Therefore, when water enters, the circuit is activated, and the circuit that stops the power transmission to the ultraviolet lamp 4 is activated. For this water detection electrode 10, a stainless steel rod was used because of its low cost, and 12 V AC was applied.
The alternating current of 12 V was selected for the reason that the life of the water detection electrode 10 is extended by changing the alternating current and that the influence on the human body due to the leakage of water during conduction is small by changing the alternating current to 12 V.

FIG. 3 is an electric circuit diagram used in the water sterilizer of the present invention. AC 12 exchanged from 100V by transformer 14
V is on the water detection electrode 5. On the other hand, AC 12V is
It is converted to direct current by the diode 15 and input to the comparator 16. The comparator 16 has a potential when there is no conduction of the water detection electrode 5 (no entry of water into the space 2 inside the water blocker 3) and a potential when there is conduction (with entry of water into the space 3). The potential of the relay 18 is compared, and the input to the transistor 17 is performed only when there is an abnormality with conduction.
Is activated and the power transmission of the ultraviolet lamp 4 is stopped. On the other hand, in a normal use state in which there is no conduction to the water detection electrode 5, the comparator 16 does not input to the transistor 17, so that the relay 18 does not operate and power transmission to the ultraviolet lamp 18 is not hindered.

This sterilizer has a quartz tube, which is the main blocker, placed in the center of a stainless steel metal container with an internal volume of 1.5 liters, and a 13 W output UV lamp in the center of the space inside the quartz tube. It is arranged. Water stays in a running channel formed between the inside of the metal container and the outside of the quartz tube. A water detection electrode, in which two stainless steel rods are arranged apart from each other, is attached to the space inside the quartz tube, and 12 V AC is constantly applied. The water detection electrode was made conductive when water entered, and power transmission to the ultraviolet lamp was stopped.
