Start-Up
WARNING!
In the case of applications with stringent disinfection requirements (e.g. drinking water
disinfection), disinfect/sterilise the piping system, e.g. in a high-chlorinating process, prior
to initial operation!
This is particularly necessary in piping systems that have already been subject to soiling,
germs or micro-organisms.
6.1
Checking the Radiation Chamber for Leaks and Venting
Release (open) vent screw on radiation chamber
Slowly open shut-off valve upstream of radiation chamber
Fill radiation chamber until water emerges at the vent screw
Close vent screw, use only slight force
Check radiation chamber for leaks
Open shut-off valve downstream of radiation chamber
(necessary only for manual shut-off valve)
6.2
Switching On Disinfection System
ATTENTION!
Do not switch on the system before the radiation chamber is filled with water!
Switch on master switch or connect power plug
Check parameters in programming mode of the control system and change if necessary
(see 4.3 Operating Status)
ATTENTION!
Make sure that the UV lamps are operated at the standard current!
Switch on UV disinfection system with the START/STOP key;
press the START/STOP key and hold for at least 2 seconds.
If the control assumes the PAUSE state, operate the pause contact
After being ignited, it can take several minutes for the UV lamps to reach their full UV output.
IMPORTANT!
Observe the supplementary operating instructions provided for special applications, in
which the sensor signal is displayed in %.
6.3
Calibrating UV-C Sensor
The UV-C sensor is calibrated at the factory and does not need recalibration.
If recalibration is required, please send the system in to ProMinent.
IMPORTANT!
Observe the supplementary instructions for special applications, in which the sensor signal
is displayed in %.
All new UV lamps require a burn-in period of 100 to 200 hours. Therefore, check the safety
threshold and the warning threshold approximately 200 operating hours after commissioning
(start-up).

Maintenance
Maintenance of the UV disinfection system is restricted to cleaning the lamp protective tubes as
well as to replacing the UV lamps at the end of their maximum permissible useful life.
In the case of systems that have a fan installed in the control cabinet, the filter mats of the fan
and the air outlet filter in the control cabinet should be replaced at regular intervals (normally
once a year).
An operation log should be kept for documentation purposes; a corresponding form can be
found in the annex.
