CONNECTION TO YOUR PIPEWORK
evoUV Aquarium UV Steriliser is supplied with 19mm hosetails, complete with
nuts and white flat rubber washer. Place the hosetail and nut over the male thread
at each end of the unit. Rotate the hosetail to the position of your choice before
doing up the nut until hand tight. The nut should be tight enough to prevent leaks
but not overtightened using tools as it may crack or damage the thread.
Slide flexible pvc hose (not supplied,) over the barb of the hosetail at each end.
This can be eased by dipping the end of the flexible pvc hose into hot water for
ten or more seconds, which will soften it, make it more stretchy and the water will
help to lubricate it.
If the hose is of the correct corresponding internal diameter no extra hose clips
should be necessary, although for extra safety and owner peace of mind, non-
corrosive hose clips can be used (not supplied)
IMPORTANT:
Do not overtighten fittings.
