Lync UV Maintenance
UV Lamps have a
1 year (9000 Hour) life span
under normal operating conditions. Quartz
sleeves should be cleaned with vinegar, citric acid, or a lime scale removing chemical annually
and replaced no less than once every 3 years. If the quartz sleeve cannot be cleaned, or if it is
discolored, is must be replaced. Pre filters should be maintained according to the
manufacturer’s instructions to ensure feed water requirements within this manual are met.
