(D) INSTALLATION

DIMENSIONS

INSTALLATION NOTES AND CAUTIONS:

—

  The Aqua Flo AQUV Water Disinfection System is designed for installation on the cold water line only at the point of entry (POE). The system must  

  be installed in accordance with all local, state or provincial regulations.

—

  The system requires a constant power supply of 110V AC.

—

  It is strongly recommended to have a dedicated electrical circuit for the UV system. A CSA or equivalent certified surge protector must be installed  

  to protect the ballast from electrical surges. We recommend surge protector rated for a clamping voltage of less than 400 Volts, response time of   

  less than one nanosecond, and energy absorption of at least 600 Joules.

—

  The AQUV-8R12 and 8R22 systems have been designed for a maximum flow rate of 8 US GPM (45 liters per minute). If higher flow rates exist    

  occasionally, it is recommended that a flow restricter be installed at the inlet port (8 US GPM).

—

  The system should be installed indoors in a protected area where the temperature does not fall below 4°C (40°F).

—

  For optimum performance, the system should be wall-mounted in a vertical position with the lamp connector at the top.  

—

  It is highly recommended to install bypass piping with a shut-off valve around the unit. This way you can still have water in case you need to  

 

  remove the UV unit for service. 

—

  Provide a minimum clearance of 3 feet above the unit for lamp replacement.

—

  Use only Teflon tape for all connections. Do not use any other sealant on the threads.

CAUTION!

** Install a pressure regulator and water hammer 

arrestor if pressure exceeds maximum rating at 

any time. Note: If daytime pressure is over

80 psi, night time pressure may exceed  

maximum pressure rating.
