NSTALLATION
:
Once it has been verified that there are no leaks in the system, the unit is ready for UV
lamp installation.
1. Remove all the power to the UV unit.
2. Depressurize the system.
3. Wear clean cotton gloves to prevent contamination of the UV lamps.
4. Carefully remove each UV lamp from the factory packaging.
Handle these with
care, as they are fragile.
5. Visually inspect all lamps for cracks or damage. Do not install damaged
lamps.
6. Using both hands,
slowly
insert the lamp into the quartz sleeve by pushing
one end of the lamp with one hand, while continuing to support the lamp in a
level horizontal position with the other.
This is very important; if not installed
properly, lamp or quartz sleeve breakage will occur.
7. Twist the lamp into the locking mechanism of the compression nut. This
ensures that the lamp is secure within the quartz sleeve.
8. Each lamp socket is identified with a number that corresponds to each lamp
position marked on the endplate. Match the lamp socket and connect to the
appropriate lamp.
9. The two pins in the lamp must be pushed down to fit securely into the pins
with the connector.
10. Rotate and screw the lamp socket cap into place. Only hand tightening is
required.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN!
11. Install the compression nut caps and the compression nuts on the second
endplate and tighten by hand.
NOTE:
If the unit is supplied with a monitoring system, recalibration must be performed after the
first 100 hours of operation on new UV lamps, both at the time of installation and each time the UV
lamps are replaced. Failure to correct may result in incorrect readings of relative UV irradiance
(percentage).
