UV-C LAMP REPLACEMENT

The UV-C lamp has a useful life of about 8,000 hours. 

To ensure effective performance, replace the UV-C lamp

before it expires.

   How to replace the UV-C lamp

Disconnect the sterilizer from the power supply.  (It is also necessary to disconnect the
power to the water pump).  

Remove the threaded cap to 
uncover the lamp socket.

Unplug the UV-C lamp out of the main body.

Pull the UV-C lamp out of the socket
(Be careful not to touch the lamp as it
may be hot).

Make sure that the pins of the lamp plugs
into the socket indicated with a "click".

Reverse steps 5-1 to reassemble the Turbo-Twist.

Please read the instructions in their entirety before 

attempting to use this unit.

Never look directly at the unshielded
lamp as the ultraviolet radiation 
emitted from the lamp can be harmful.

Do not pull cord to disconnect power.

Cut off the power and stop using if
the unit was submersed or dampened 
by water

Cut off the power immediately if water
enters into the Quartz Housing.

Cut off the power if there is a burning
or smoking smell.

Never connect the sterilizer to the
power outlet while hands are wet.

Always leave a drip-loop in the power
cord to prevent water from running
down the length of the
cord and reaching
the power
outlet.

Though the Turbo-Twist is water 
resistant, it should never be 
intentionally submersed in water.  
Always install the sterilizer in a location 
where there is little likelihood of flooding 
or water dripping directly onto the unit.

The water temperature flowing 
through the unit should be below 
105

o

F (40

o

C).

Make sure that appropriately sized
hose lock nuts are positioned on 
hose barbs before attempting to 
connect tubing.

Always disconnect the unit from the 
power supply before shutting down 
the flow of water to prevent the unit
from overheating.

Only a 120V (60 Hz) electrical
source should be used with the 
Turbo-Twist.
