The quartz sleeves designed for this series are open on both ends. The following are the
guidelines and procedure for quartz sleeve installation.
1. Turn off all power to the unit.
2. Wear clean cotton gloves to prevent contamination of the quartz sleeves.
3. Carefully remove each quartz sleeve from the factory packaging. Handle
these with care, as they are fragile.
4. Visually inspect all quartz sleeves for cracks or other damage.
DO NOT install
damaged quartz sleeves.
5. Remove the socket cover on the end of the treatment chamber. Put the O-
rings and compression nut tool in a safe location.
6. Remove all compression nuts.
7. A PVC pipe is provided for installing the quartz sleeves. Slide the PVC pipe
through the threaded nipple and push through the second endplate nipple.
Repeat for all quartz sleeves.
8. Place the end of the quartz sleeve over the PVC pipe, into the threaded nipple
and slowly push the sleeve into the chamber through to the second endplate.
Repeat for all quartz sleeves. For HX and HX-U units with operating flow
above 1,000GPM, some resistance may be felt from the support Teflon
bushing.
9. Install the compression nut and O-ring by placing the O-ring into the internal
relief of the compression nut, below the threaded area.
10. Place the compression nut and O-ring onto the end of the quartz sleeve until
the end of the quartz sleeve touches the end of the compression nut. Some
pushing and twisting may be required. Deionized water may be used as a
lubricant.
11. Tighten the compression nut approximately ½ turn after the threaded nipple
and O-ring make contact.
DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN
.
12. Repeat this procedure for the second endplate.
13. Slowly pressurize the system and fill the chamber with water to check for
leaks.
14. If there are leaks in any compression nut assembly, depressurize the system
and use the compression nut tool to slightly tighten the leaking compression
nut assembly.
15. Retest until a leak-free installation is verified.
16. You are now ready to install the UV lamps.
