Installation
Step 1:
The chamber can be installed either horizontally,
or vertically using the clamps provided. Vertical installation
is the preferred method with the inlet at the bottom (lamp
connection at the top) as it allows any air that may be in
the lines to be easily purged from the system.
If the chamber is being mounted horizontally, it should
be mounted so that water flows out of the threaded outlet
upwards. This ensures the chamber is completely full of water
before existing the chamber, allowing the water maximum
exposure time to the UV light.
Step 2:
The use of a by-pass assembly is recommended
as it will allow you to isolate the UV chamber. This will
allow for easier access in case maintenance is required
(See Figure 4).
Step 3:
Fasten chamber clamps to wall with screws
provided. The screws must anchor securely into solid
wood, concrete, or steel structure for adequate strength.
Do not attempt to secure screws into drywall (Figure 3a).
Install Chamber into clamps (Figure 3b).
Step 4:
For water supplies where the maximum flow rate is
unknown, a flow restrictor is recommended so that the rated
flow of your particular Microlene UV Disinfection System is
not exceeded. The flow restrictor should be installed on the
inlet port of the chamber.
Step 5:
It is recommended to have a licensed plumber
connect the UV chamber to the water supply and may be
a requirement depending on where you are located.
