UV Lamp Replacement Instructions
UV lamps should be replaced every 12 months. There is no need to disconnect the UV from the water supply
before replacing the lamp. The quartz sleeve can be re-used, but is very fragile. It is recommended to have a
spare quartz sleeve on hand in it is broken during the lamp change.
1.
Disconnect the main power source and allow the unit to power down.
2.
Remove the ballast/connector by sliding the metal ring away from the body of the connector (Figure1). Do not twist
the lamp from the connector, simply slide the two apart. Fully remove the lamp from the reactor chamber, being
careful not to angle the lamp and damage the quartz sleeve (Figure 2).
3.
Remove the new lamp from the protective packaging. Handle the lamp by the ceramic ends, avoid touching the
glass. If you must touch the glass, use gloves or a soft cloth.
4.
Carefully insert the lamp into the reactor vessel (inside the quartz sleeve). Leave about two inches of lamp protruding
from the chamber (Figure 3).
5.
Attach the ballast/connector onto the UV lamp. The connector is “keyed” and will only allow correct installation in one
position. Ensure the connector is fully seated onto the UV lamp (Figure 4).
6.
Once the lamp is fully seated on the connector, slide the ballast/connector over the aluminum retaining nut. Make
sure the metal retaining ring on the ballast/connector is pulled out, allowing the connector to slide completely over the
retaining nut. Slide the metal ring back in to lock the connector into place (Figure 5). As the ballast/connector is
keyed to the reactor chamber, make sure the depression on the connector is located over the ground lug located on
the reactor chamber (Figure 1).
