Installation

3.1 UV System

The UV system is designed to be mounted either horizontally or vertically at the point-of-use or point-of-entry depending on 
the specific flow rate of the unit. 

If installing the chamber in horizontal position the outlet port must be pointing upwards to ensure all air is fully purged from 
the chamber.

Note: 

The ideal installation is vertical with the lamp connector on top. This is to prevent water damage from occurring on the 

lamp pins and lamp connector.

The controller should be mounted either above or beside the chamber. Always mount controller horizontally to prevent 
moisture from running down cordage and causing a potential fire hazard. Drip loops in all cordage connected to 
controller is highly recommended. Refer to 

Figure 6
