Also read the chapters 'UV lamp breakage' and 'Quartz tube breakage' where causes and warnings are
described.
If a UV lamp is defective or broken but the quarter tube is not defective, do the following:

8.5.1.1.1.1
Warning! Broken quartz is sharp. Use the correct protective equipment. (The
gloves supplied do not protect against cutting). Check the total system for quartz fragments
and take the right measures against this.
3. Remove the UV lamp (residues) from the irradiation chamber;
4. Collect any mercury released and dispose of appropriately;
5. If all remnants have been removed, a new lamp can be placed;
6. Switch on the UV system and ensure that the irradiation chamber is flowed through with sufficient water

In the case of a broken quartz tube, the instructions in the 'Broken quartz tube' section must also be
followed.
