Bion Systems delivers advanced copper-silver ionisation technology to control harmful waterborne pathogens, including Legionella, Pseudomonas, E.Coli and Salmonella across healthcare, aged care, residential, and industrial water systems – providing a safe, effective, and environmentally responsible solution.
Bacteria in water is often treated with chlorine or UV, but these are short-term fixes. Bion Systems delivers system-wide, long-lasting disinfection – eliminating both free-floating bacteria and biofilm-embedded pathogens.
Bion Systems AccuionTM Copper Silver Ionisation technology is the world’s first fully automated, self-compensating, proportional dosing Copper Silver disinfection system. The AccuionTM is cost effective, safe, environmentally friendly and scientifically proven to eliminate biofilm and a plethora of harmful waterborne pathogens including Legionella bacteria, Pseudomonas, E.Coli and Salmonella.
Bion Systems AccuionTM Silver Ionisation technology is suited to specialised applications where the addition of copper is not required, such as bottled water and beverage production, shipboard potable water disinfection and Central Sterile Services Departments (CSSD). Featuring the full suite of AccuionTM technological features, our Silver Ionisation system is an advanced and efficient disinfection system, that provides biological control with low levels of ion addition.
Copper Silver effectively kills planktonic (free floating) bacteria in the water such as Legionella, Pseudomonas and many others
Copper Silver powerfully penetrates biofilm. Once the sessile organisms within are killed, the biolfilm naturally dissolves.
Originally developed in the 1960’s as part of NASA’s Apollo Space Program, the efficacy of Copper Silver has been rigorously studied and proven in scientific literature
Highly reliable and effective, with minimal running costs and long service intervals
Copper Silver will not corrode pipework or damage plastic components, which are common side effects of chemical dosing
As natural elements, Copper and Silver do not produce any harmful bi-products
Copper Silver Ionisation technology works by using electrical currents to release minute doses of copper and silver ions into the water. These ions are natural biocides, that kill both free floating waterborne pathogens and the sessile versions of the organisms that reside within the biofilm, providing round the clock protection against harmful pathogens.
Where can an AccuionTM system be used?
Bion Systems build a range of units to suit a wide array of applications from large hospitals, aged care facilities, dental clinics, food processing, beverage production, pharmecuetical manufacturing, hotels and restaurants, commercial buildings and apartments, cooling towers, marine vessels, mining applications and AI data centres.
Wherever public safety and water quality is paramount, our systems will deliver outstanding results. Contact us if you would like to discuss your application.
How much does the system cost?
AccuionTM units are sized according to the peak flow rate demands of a facility’s water distribution system. The pricing of our models will naturally differ depending on these requirements. Our off the shelf models range from smaller units that treat up to 50 litres per minute, through to units capable of treating up to 1200 litres per minute peak flow. Custom units are available on request for any flow rate.

What is the difference between UV sterilisation and Copper Silver Ionisation?
UV sterilisation is only effective at its point of use. Whereas copper silver ionisation is a residual disinfectant, that remains active through the entire water distribution system.

What are the benefits of Copper Silver compared to chlorine dosing?
Copper Silver Ionisation effectively kills Legionella. Chlorine does not kill this microorganism. It only temporarily disables it. This alone is good reason to use Copper Silver Ionisation at your facility.
Additionally, Copper Silver Ionisation does not damage pipework, or components of the water distribution system or process. Chlorine being an oxidising biocide, is very harmful to copper pipework, plastic and synthetic components, adding tens of thousands of dollars to maintenance and repair bills.
