SANITRON
®
Models S37C the ballast housing is mounted to the purifier chamber using four (4) 1/4”-20 x 3/8” long
hex head bolts. Using a 7/16” wrench or an adjustable wrench, carefully remove the four (4) bolts with the lock and flat
washers, from along the top of the ballast housing, and set aside. Separate the housing from the chamber.
•
Keep ballast housing and mounting hardware in a clean, dry area.
2.
