For Point of Entry (POE) systems, choose a location where the main cold water line is
accessible. The system must be installed after other water treatment equipment (softener
or filters), but before any branches (See Figure 1). Microlene recommends that a 1 micron
filter be installed
before
the UV system for a final polishing step before the water is
disinfected.
Figure 1. Recommended POE Installation Location
To facilitate lamp removal, ensure there is enough space at the lamp connector end
to safely remove the UV lamp and/or quartz sleeve (See Figure 2). The controller will
require a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI or GFI) outlet and should be mounted
beside or above the chamber.
IMPORTANT:
All Microlene UV Disinfection Systems are intended to be installed under
a weather proof cover and should not be exposed to the open elements.

System Sizing
All DAVEY NSF UV systems are rated for a specific flow rate in water that meets the
quality parameters on page 5. The NSF systems have a built in flow restrictor to ensure
flow does not exceed the specification design.
