Step 9:
The reactor is now ready for water flow. When all plumbing connections have been
completed, slowly turn on the water supply and check for leaks. Make sure the by-pass valves are
functioning properly and that the water is flowing through the reactor. The most common leak
is from the o-ring not making a proper seal on the reactor. For new installations, review steps 7
and 8. For older systems drain the reactor, remove the o-ring, dry it and reapply silicon grease.
Reinstall the o-ring ensuring that it is properly sealed against the reactor and check again for
leaks.
Step 10:
Mount the controller to the wall so it is above or beside the reactor to ensure that no
moisture can deposit on any of the connections (see Figure 1). Always mount the controller verti-
cally. For monitored systems, insert the sensor connector into the IEP port located on the right
side of the controller (Figure 6). For the sensor to be recognised by the controller, the controller
power must be plugged in last.
Do not plug the controller power cord in before the last step.
Step 11:
Always hold UV lamps by their ceramic ends, not by the lamp quartz. Remove the lamp
from its packaging. Again, the use of cotton gloves is recommended. Insert the UV lamp into the
reactor, being careful not to drop it.
Step 12:
Plug the lamp connector into the lamp. Note the keying for proper alignment (see Fig-
ure 7a, 7b). Insert the lamp connector into the gland nut and turn the connector approximately
¼ turn to lock the connector to the gland nut as in Figure 8.
