installing the UV lamps:
single-ended units
Once is has been verified that there are no leaks in the
system, the unit is ready for UV lamp installation.
1. Turn off all power to the UV unit.
2. Depressurize the system.
3. Wear clean cotton gloves to prevent contamination of
the UV lamps.
4. Carefully remove the UV Lamp from the factory
packaging. Handle the lamp with care, as it is fragile.
5. Visually inspect all lamps for cracks or damage. Do
not install damaged lamps.
6. Using both hands, slowly insert the lamp into the
quartz sleeve by pushing it with one hand while
guiding it with the other in a level, horizontal
position. This is very important. If not installed
properly, lamp or quartz breakage will occur.
7. Twist the lamp into the locking mechanism of the
compression nut. This ensures the lamp is secure
within the chamber.
8. The lamp pins must be pushed down to fit securely
in the lamp socket connector.
9. Screw the lamp socket retainer cap clockwise into
place over the lamp socket. Only hand tightening
is required. Do not overtighten.
Step 6: Insert the UV lamp into the quartz sleeve
Step 6: UV lamp inserted
Step 9: Tighten the lamp socket retainer cap.
CAUTION!
Prior to energizing the ballasts and lamps, ensure there is no
water leaking into the quartz sleeves and compression nut cavities by
properly installing these components. Even a small leak can flood a
quartz sleeve and compression nut cavity.
During operation, high voltage is present at the lamp pins and recep-
tacles of the lamp connectors. Prolonged flooding of a quartz sleeve and
compression nut cavity can cause premature failure of the lamp due to
repeated arcing, overheating of the lamp connector cable, and may
result in a meltdown of the cable insulation.
