WU-UV SERIES

 | Filtration & Ultraviolet Disinfection All-in-One Unit 

Installation Guide

Positioning Your System

Choose a location with a structurally appropriate mounting position. Allow a chamber 
length space above the unit for removal of the lamp and sleeve from the Radfire UV 

system during servicing and 120 mm below the housings for replacing the cartridges 
and maintenance. 

An isolation valve may be installed prior to the WU-UV system to isolate the unit for 

changing the cartridges, lamps and sleeve.

To protect your WU-UV system make sure the site is frost free and has adequate 

ventilation. Choose a location with adequate drainage and where water spillage will not 
cause damage that may occur over time from leaking pipe joints or seals.

Power Surge Protection

An electrical power surge or spike can travel on the supply lines and cause serious 
damage to your electrical equipment. The Radfire UV Electronic ballast has a fuse 
(non-replaceable) to protect the circuit. The fuse is not a lightning arrester and may not 
protect the Radfire if lightning or a very powerful surge hits the unit.

A suitable surge protection device must be installed with this product (not included). 

Puretec recommends the use of a surge protector or warranty may be voided.

It would usually be sufficient for the surge protector to be installed under the 

eaves of a house and/or out of the weather, otherwise, it would need to be suitably 

protected. Ensuring the surge protector is suitibly protected from water/moisture is the 
responsibility of the user. Alternatively a hard-wired outdoor surge protector my be 
installed by a qualified electrican or an outdoor rated surge protector may also be used.

Order code for surge protectors: PC-SURGE (sold seperately)

Do not use long extension leads as they may cause substantial voltage drop and/or poor 
lamp performance.

We recommend the use of an RCD or earth leakage circuit breaker 

on the power 

supply to your unit.
