Choosing a Site
Choose a site with a firm mounting position. Allow room for removal of the lamp
and sleeve during servicing. Leave a chamber lengths space at the lamp
connector end for lamp removal, with 100mm free at the other end for access to
the end nut. The ‘open’ end nut and the blank end nut are interchangeable, so
lamp removal can be from either end.
Housing your Steriflo
®
System
To protect your Steriflo
®
system from the weather, make sure the site is water
proof, frost free and has adequate ventilation. The unit should be either
horizontally mounted with the inlet and outlet facing upwards or vertically mounted
with the inlet at the bottom. Allow for drainage, to avoid damage to flooring etc.,
that over time may occur from leaking pipe joints or seals and allow room to
remove the lamp.
WARNING: Some insects, such as small ants, find electrical
devices attractive for various reasons. If your site or enclosure is
susceptible to insect infestation you should implement a suitable
pest control plan.
