Installation: BIO-1.5 and BIO-3.0 using ballast no.10-0518A 120v 50/60Hz
and using ballast no.10-0514A 230v 50/60Hz
IN ORDER TO PERFORM THIS TASK, BE SURE TO WEAR THE FOLLOWING
SAFETY EQUIPMENT: SAFETY GLASSES OR A FACE SHIELD, AS WELL AS GLOVES.
1.
Remove water purifier from shipping carton. Inspect water purifier, power cord and plug for damage. Do not operate if there
is any damage to the purifier, power cord or plug. All models, of the
Bio-Logic
®
line of water purifiers, are shipped with the
lamps packed separately. Keep the lamp aside for installation once the purifier has been properly installed.
2.
Units occasionally experience damage in shipment due to the fragility of the quartz sleeve. It is therefore recommended to
inspect the water purifier for damage to the quartz sleeve after it has been removed from the shipping carton. Each end of the
unit as well as the inlet and outlet should be viewed to see if the quartz sleeve has experienced damage. If the quartz sleeve
shows signs of damage it should be replaced before the purifier is pressurized. See
“Quartz Sleeve Installation, Cleaning, or
Replacement”
in the
“Maintenance”
section on
Page 11
for the proper method of replacing the quartz sleeve in your water
purifier.
3.
The water purifier should be mounted horizontally on a flat dry surface. The purifier should not be solely supported by its
plumbing connections. Secure the water purifier using the mounting clips.
4.
The water purifier
MUST
be connected to the cold water line only. Inlet water temperature should not exceed 100
o
F.
5.
Installation requires a 5-micron sediment filter be installed, in line, prior to the water purifier. The sediment filter will stop or
trap any particulates from entering the water purifier. Particulates may cause damage to the quartz sleeve, as well as interfere
with the purifier’s ability to disinfect the water. The sediment filter may also help to reduce the amount of routine cleanings of
the quartz sleeve.
6.
Shut off valves should be installed on both the inlet and outlet sides of the water purifier.
The use of bypass valves is not
recommended.
The shut off valves allow the purifier to be isolated from the water supply, which is required when removing
the quartz sleeve.
7.
Unions should be installed on both the inlet and outlet of the water purifier; this will allow easy removal of the water purifier
from the plumbing, if required. Apply Teflon
®
tape to threads of inlet and outlet ports to ensure a tight seal.
8.
When all plumbing connections are complete, allow water to enter the water purifier at a low flow rate, until the purifier is full.
NOTE:
Close the purifier outlet valve to pressurize the chamber.
With the purifier pressurized, it should be checked for
leaks. Once it is determined that there are no leaks, the inlet valve can be fully opened.

9.
Unpack the lamp and ballast. While holding lamp end, carefully push lamp socket on. Carefully slide lamp straight into the
quartz sleeve, without angling. Push the End Cap on, over the static gland nut. Attach the ground connector to the grounding
tab of the chamber with included hardware (see photo on
Page 8
).
To ensure proper operation and safety of the purifier, your unit must be connected to a known good ground.
Lamp and quartz sleeve are easily damaged. Exercise care when handling.
