FCL0017
Replacing the UVC lamp
The UVC lamp is a wear part. Replace the UVC lamp when the indicated operating hours have
been reached. This ensures optimum filtering performance.
Prerequisite:
•
The UVC unit head has been removed. (

•
Only use UVC lamps, the identification and power data of which correspond to the information
on the type plate. (

Technical data)
How to proceed:
•
Removal: Turn the bayonet ring all the way to the “lock open” position to remove the holding
plate and the UVC lamp.
•
Installation: Turn the bayonet ring all the way to the “lock closed” position. Otherwise you
cannot install the UVC unit head.
–
On delivery, the bulb of the UVC lamp is protected by a transport guard. The lamp guard is
not required for the lamp function and does not need to be reinstalled.

If necessary remove a lamp guard stuck in the quartz glass as follows:
−
Remove the quartz glass. (

−
Carefully and steadily knock the rotor lid with the quartz glass against a firm surface. The
lamp guard will slowly slide out of the quartz glass.

OSRAM UVC lamps can only be installed without the holding plate. OASE therefore recom-
mends using Philips UVC lamps.
