UIDELINES
:
1) Release the pressure in the UV treatment chamber before attempting to
remove the protective covers and sealing items.
2) Disconnect all power to the UV unit before servicing. The unit operates on
high voltage and
should only be serviced by qualified personnel.
3) Do not allow the unit to overheat by operating without water flow. Standard
flow rates are based on water temperatures of 40
°
F to 80
°
F. For applications
outside these temperatures, contact customer service for assistance. In no
case should the water temperature be below 35
°
F or above 120
°
F. For heat
sanitization above 170
°
F, stainless steel compression nuts and Viton
elastomers are recommended. With these components, sanitization up to
250
°
F (121
°
C) is allowed in a non-operating state.
4) Intermittent operation is allowed as long as the water temperature does not
exceed 120
°
F; optional devices (T-120 or monitoring stations) are available to
prevent this problem. Should the unit be used for batch flow operations, it can
be turned “ON” and “OFF” manually. Make sure the unit is allowed to warm
up for at least 3 minutes before use, and make sure the unit is turned “OFF”
after each session.
5) Do not allow the flow rate to exceed the maximum rated capacity.
6)
DO NOT electrically cycle the UV unit more than 3 “ON/OFF” cycles in a 24-
hour period
. Cycling more than this will reduce End-Of-Life (EOL) output
and/or cause premature lamp failure.
NOTE:
DO NOT look at the lighted blue UV lamps. DO NOT operate the UV lamps outside of the
UV treatment chamber.
EXPOSURE CAN SEVERELY BURN AND DAMAGE EYES AND SKIN!
