supplied protectors in North America, and into equivalent protectors outside
North America (not supplied with systems in those markets).
UV Pure Technologies’ UV water purification system models are designed to
operate within normal power grid specifications (voltages and frequencies),
worldwide. However power spikes, surges and brownouts are a common
occurrence in all countries. When that happens, line voltages may fluctuate
outside the systems’ operating specifications.
Installation of the supplied TVSS/SPD between the UV system and the power
source will increase the ability of the system to survive transient events on the
AC power. This will help to ensure uninterrupted water treatment and reduce the
risk of costly repairs due to damage from power spikes, surges and brownouts
which are NOT COVERED BY UV PURE TECHNOLOGIES’ Limited Warranty.
Shutting Down of Unit and Seasonal Use
To power down the Hallett, press Enter when the screen displays “Unit Treating”.
Select
Shutdown Unit
from the main menu and after the message

appears, unplug the unit. If an alarm condition exists, the
Hallett is to be simply unplugged to power down.
The Hallett can operate for extended periods of time without water usage
as
long as the water supply is present.
The unit may be shutdown in the case of
seasonal residences or during a vacation. If the possibility of freezing exists, the
unit and any filters must be drained. (See Draining the Unit.) Upon returning,
reconnect all fittings, close all valves and turn on water supply. Plug in the Hallett
and when operational, flush the water through the unit for at least 15 minutes.
Caution:
When the unit is not operating, the solenoid valve remains closed. If the
solenoid valve is forced open or if the optional bypass piping is used, untreated
water may enter the plumbing system. Emergency use of untreated water is the
only situation where the bypass piping should be used. Any water used for
drinking should be boiled. Unplug the unit if the bypass is used.
Do not run the
unit dry. This will cause potential damage and scratching of the quartz
sleeve.
Disinfecting the Plumbing
Disinfection of the household or facility plumbing should be performed after the
Hallett has been installed and is operating. This procedure should also be done if
the unit is not functioning normally, if a bypass has been used, or if there has
been a high background bacteria count in a water sample. UV Pure has found
that disinfecting the plumbing will ensure that any potential bacteria or
contaminants in the distribution system are treated prior to system use.
Please note that this procedure is ineffective against protozoa that can be found
in surface water or shallow wells under the influence of surface water. Under
these circumstances, it is important to perform the disinfecting procedure and
then operate the Hallett.
UV Pure has found that this procedure does not work with sediments or heavy
