Quick cleaning
Open and remove the filter lid from the filter housing. Open the cover cap at the cleaning outlet and
drain the soiled water. Screw the cover cap back on again and start the unit up (see Start-up).
Complete cleaning
Open and remove the filter lid from the filter housing. Unlock and remove the inner cover. Remove the
foam filters and clean with clear water. Open the cover cap at the cleaning outlet and clean filter
housing, inner lid and cover with water. Reassemble the filter in the reverse order. Screw the cover cap
back on again and start the unit up.
Cleaning the UCV clarifying unit
Open and remove the filter lid from the filter housing. Turn the unit head of the UVC clarifying unit
counter clockwise against the stop, then carefully pull off. Undo the clamping screw by turning counter-
clockwise, and remove the quartz glass including the O ring forward with a slight turning movement.
Remove the O ring from the quartz glass, clean and check for damage. Clean the quartz glass outer
face with a moist cloth and check for damage. Thoroughly clean the inner and outer surfaces of the
housing. If necessary, replace the UVC lamp.
Reassembly: Push the O ring against the collar of the quartz glass, press the quartz glass into the unit
head against the stop, fit the clamping screw and hand-tighten. Check the O ring at the unit head for
damage, fit the O ring and push the unit head carefully into the housing while exerting light pressure.
Ensure that the tendons at the housing engage in the grooves of the bayonet closure. Turn the unit
head clockwise up to the stop while applying slight pressure, so that the two arrows on the unit head
and the housing meet.
Changing the UVC lamp
For an optimum filter performance, we recommend to replace the UVC lamp after approx. 6000
operating hours.
Important! Only use lamps the designation and rating of which match the information on the
type plate.
Pull out and replace the UVC lamp.
Storage/Over-wintering
Put the unit out of operation at water temperatures below 8 °C or, at the latest, when freezing
temperatures are to be expected. Drain and thoroughly clean the flow-through filter, check for damage.
Remove, clean, dry and store all filters in a frost-free environment. Do not immerse the power plug in
the water! Cover the filter container such that the ingress of rain water is excluded. Drain all hoses,
pipes and connections as far as possible. Ensure that the storage place is inaccessible to children.
Wear parts
The UVC lamp, the quartz glass and the foam filters are wear parts and are excluded from the
warranty.
Disposal
Dispose of the unit in accordance with the national legal regulations. The UVC lamp needs special
disposal. Ask your specialist dealer.
