ON PRE-BUILT UNITS STEPS 6 & 7 HAVE BEEN PRE-ASSEMBLED
Step 6:
Once the system has been plumbed in, gently remove the
quartz sleeve from its packaging being careful not to touch the length
with your hands. The use of cotton gloves is recommended for this
procedure as oils from the hands can leave residue on the sleeve
and lamp which can ultimately block the UV light from getting to the
water.
Carefully slide the sleeve into the reactor until you can feel it hit the
opposite end of the reactor. Align the sleeve so it centered along the
length of the reactor, then gently push it in to lock it into the internal
centering springs in the far side of the reactor. CAUTION: Pushing
too hard when the sleeve is not aligned can damage the centering
springs. Slide the o-ring onto the sleeve until it is butted up against
the reactor.

Sleeve Installation
Step 7:
Hand tighten the provided gland nut over the quartz sleeve onto the threaded end of
the reactor. It has a positive stop to prevent over-tightening. A firm force may be required to fully
tighten the gland nut, but DO NOT USE TOOLS for this step. Insert the provided stainless steel
compression spring into the quartz sleeve. The spring works with the lamp and lamp connector
to create the proper lamp alignment.
PLEASE NOTE:
DO NOT install a UV lamp inside the quartz
sleeve without the sleeve spring in place.
EXTRAS
Step 8:
Install the UV sensor
(optional extra)
. Align the flat portion so it faces the gland nut
end and matches up with the half metal lip on the sensor port (see Figure 5). Insert the sensor
so it is fully seated and hand tighten the sensor nut. If no sensor is being installed insert the glow
nut into the port.
