NSTALLATION

1.  Remove water purifi er from shipping carton. Inspect water purifi er, power cord and plug for damage. Do not operate if there 

is any damage to the purifi er, power cord or plug. Models S17A and S23A are shipped with the lamp already installed, while 
the lamp in the S37C and the S50C is packed separately. Keep the lamp aside for installation once the purifi er has been 
properly installed.

2.  Units occasionally experience damage in shipment due to the fragility of the quartz sleeve.  It is, therefore, recommended 

to inspect the water purifi er for damage to the quartz sleeve after it has been removed from the shipping carton. Each end 
of the unit as well as the inlet and outlet should be viewed to see if the quartz sleeve has experienced damage. If the quartz 
sleeve shows signs of damage it should be replaced before the purifi er is pressurized.  See “

Quartz Sleeve Cleaning or 

Replacement”

 in the 

“Maintenance”

 section for the proper method of replacing the quartz sleeve in your water purifi er.

3.  The water purifi er should be mounted horizontally on a fl at dry surface. Secure the water purifi er using the mounting  holes 

in the ballast housing or with the optional wall mounting kit. The purifi er should not be solely supported by its plumbing 
connections.

4.  The water purifi er must be connected to the cold water line only.

5.  Installation requires that a 5-micron sediment fi lter or fi ner be installed, in line, prior to the water purifi er. The sediment fi lter 

will stop or trap large particulates from entering the water purifi er. Particulates may cause damage to the quartz sleeve, as 
well as interfere with the purifi er’s ability to disinfect the water. The sediment fi lter may also help to reduce the amount of  
routine cleaning of the quartz sleeve.

6.  Shut off valves should be installed on both the inlet and outlet sides of the water purifi er. 

The use of bypass valves is not 

recommended

. The shut off valves allow the purifi er to be isolated from the water supply, which is required when removing 

the quartz sleeve.

7.  Unions should be installed on both the inlet and outlet of the water purifi er; this will allow easy removal of the water purifi er 

from the plumbing, if required. Apply Tefl on® tape to threads of inlet and outlet ports to ensure a tight seal.

8.  When all plumbing connections are complete, allow water to enter the water purifi er at a low fl ow rate, until the purifi er is 

full. 

NOTE: Close the purifi er outlet valve to pressurize the chamber.

 With the purifi er pressurized, it should be checked 

for leaks. Once it is determined that there are no leaks, the inlet valve can be fully opened. 

9.  For Models with lamps packed separately, install lamp following the steps in “Lamp Installation or Replacement” section.

       CAUTION: Lamp and quartz sleeve are easily damaged. Exercise care when handling.

10.         Plug water purifi er into approved ground fault circuit interrupt (GFCI) receptacle. Confi rm lamp operation indication at 

sight port.
