CAUTION:
Broken Quartz is SHARP. It is recommended that protective goggles and gloves
are worn when handling.
1.
Follow the steps in “
Quartz Sleeve Cleaning or Replacement
” to remove lamp and quartz sleeve.
CAUTION:
Considerable force may be required to pull purifier from the mounting clips.
Exercise extreme care when removing purifier.
2.
Remove the tubing from the inlet and outlet fittings of the
Bio-Logic
®
Ultraviolet Water Purifier. See
“
Tubing Removal
” for the proper method of removing the tubing.
3.
Remove the water purifier from the mounting clips. Grasp the purifier chamber, and firmly pull each end free of
the mounting clips.
4.
Carefully remove as much of the broken quartz sleeve as possible, from each end of the chamber.
5.
Remove chamber head clamp, by using a 7/16" wrench to loosen and remove the 1/4" nut from the head clamp.
6.
Remove chamber head from the chamber.
7.
Any broken pieces of the quartz sleeve can now be removed through the open end of the purifier chamber.
Flush water through chamber being careful to remove all quartz fragments from the interior of the chamber.
Carefully
discard all pieces of the broken quartz sleeve.
8.
Inspect the large O-ring used to seal the chamber and the chamber head. Make sure the O-ring is seated
properly between the chamber head ring and the flare of the chamber head.
9.
To reinstall the chamber head, push chamber head flange into the chamber until both flared ends, of the
chamber and the head, mate against the O-ring.
10.
Replace the head clamp around the flared ends of the head and chamber. Install the 1/4" nut and tighten, using a
7/16" wrench, until approximately 7/8" to 1" of the bolt protrudes past the nut.
11.
Carefully insert quartz sleeve into chamber.
NOTE
: It is advisable to support the quartz sleeve with your finger
to guide it through the opening in the threaded gland fitting. Center the quartz sleeve in the chamber, making
sure the quartz sleeve protrudes an equal distance past each threaded gland fitting.
12.
Reinstall O-rings, Teflon® washers, and static gland nuts. Be sure O-rings are placed on quartz sleeve before
Teflon® washer. Tighten static gland nuts firmly by hand only,
DO NOT USE HAND TOOLS
. Tightening
with hand tools is likely to cause quartz sleeve to break.
13.
Remount the water purifier to system-mounting bracket, by firmly pressing the purifier into the chamber brackets.
14.
Reinstall the tubing; see “
Tubing Installation
” for the proper method of installing the tubing. Be sure that the
tubing from the outlet of the carbon filter goes to the inlet of the water purifier, and the tubing from system
faucet goes to the outlet of the water purifier.
15.
Lift the handle, of the system faucet, and lock the faucet in the “ON” position. Slowly open the supply valve,
and allow the system to fill with water.
16.
When water begins to flow from the faucet, allow water to run for several minutes until it is clear with no air
bubbles. Turn off the faucet and check the water purifier for leaks.
WARNING:
Germicidal ultraviolet rays are harmful to eyes and skin. Do not restore power to
water purifier until lamp and both easy-off end caps have been properly reinstalled.
