Operation
The BWT UV units have a splash protection housing
(Protection class IP54) which contains a UV lamp
control (ballast) and control sensors. For the BWT
UV units version different main unit controllers are
available. The sensor-monitored system is equipped
with a DC-operated UV sensor that can measure
the UV intensity (via current measurement). The
standard signal is converted to a UV intensity value
in [%] and shown on the display.
OBSERVE:
While the display screen is red and the buzzer is
sounding the water from the system should not
be consumed. If any water does pass through the
system during this period, please follow the disin-
fection procedure as outlined in this manual before
the water is consumed. For non-monitored systems,
even though they have a visual and audible warning
built into the controller, a green status screen does
not necessarily indicate that the water coming from
this system is in fact potable (is safe to drink). These
systems do not measure the level of disinfection;
they simply measure the “on-off” status of the lamp.
Please have your water checked for microbiological
contaminants on a regular basis.
