MAINTENANCE
LAMP REPLACEMENT
The UV lamp is rated for 13,000 hours of service and can be monitored through the blue viewing caps at
the end of the chamber.
DO NOT VIEW LAMP DIRECTLY - ALWAYS USE VIEWING CAP
. When the
lamp requires replacement, follow this simple procedure:
Shut off AC power before performing maintenance
Allow lamp to cool for 10 minutes before handling
A. Unthread and remove the end cap with the wire attached from the end of the UV chamber
, by first
loosening the small black plastic nut, then the larger black nut to remove lamp.
B. Plug the 4 prong plug into the end of the UV lamp. If lamp is not fully plugged in, damage to the unit
may occur.
C. Slide lamp
straight
into chamber -
Be careful, inserting the lamp at an angle, even a slight angle
can crack the quartz sleeve.
D. Rethread black cap back onto chamber fitting by hand to assure tight seal.
IMPORTANT:
HANDLE THE LAMP BY THE ENDS ONLY AND AVOID TOUCHING THE CLEAR GLASS OF THE
LAMP. IF POSSIBLE USE COTTON GLOVES TO HANDLE LAMP TO AVOID GETTING OILS FROM
HANDS ON THE LAMP. SKIN OILS ATTACH TO THE LAMP AND SHORTEN ITS EFFECTIVE LIFE.
IF LAMP IS TOUCHED, WIPE CLEAN WITH A SOFT CLOTH AND RUBBING ALCOHOL.
CLEANING THE QUARTZ SLEEVE
The quartz sleeve inside the UV chamber encases the UV lamp and
should be cleaned while winterizing the system, or annually if
system is installed on a pool running 12 months. The quartz sleeve
is brittle and can be cracked, chipped or broken if it is not handled
with care. Do not remove the sleeve or attempt to scrape or scrub
the sleeve as it could crack or break it.
-After removing the manifold as shown in WINTERIZING section,
unthread the top chamber and turn the chamber over so the
openings face up.
-Using CLR or Lime Away or a comparable cleaning product
(available at grocery stores or home centers), pour into the chamber
to cover the quartz sleeve with the liquid and allow to soak for 30
minutes. Dispose of cleaning solution by following instruction on
the cleaning solution container.
-Rinse the quartz sleeve with isopropyl alcohol to remove any
remaining residue from the sleeve.
-Rinse the sleeve again with water.
