Electrical installation - UVC Models

The power supply must meet the specifications on the product.

The UVC is intended to be used with either a weatherproof cable connector or 
permanently connected to the fixed wiring in the main system other than by means  
of a plug and socket.

The cores in the supply cable are coloured in accordance with the following code:   

Brown = Live, Blue = Neutral.

Do not use the supply cable to lift the UVC as this may cause damage.

Testing/installing the UVC lamp

1. 

Unscrew the UVC electronics cover cap.

2. 

Inspect the UVC cap and Quartz sleeve for water leaks.

3. 

If there are no signs of leakage reverse the procedure ensuring that the Cover o ring is in place.

If there has been any damage to the unit please return to the point of purchase for  
inspection. This test should be repeated whenever the the bulb or quartz is changed.

Warning direct exposure to UVC light can damage your eyes or skin.

This unit is protected by a micro switch that prevents the UVC light  
from illuminating when the cover is removed even if the power is on.

the spay bar and hold a piece of plain paper up to  
the the UVC outlet a faint blue reflection should
