OPERATION
• Always disconnect power before performing any work on the
disinfection system.
• Regularly inspect your disinfection system to ensure that the
power indicators are on and no alarms are present.
• Replace the UV lamp annually (or biennially if seasonal home use)
to ensure maximum disinfection.
• Always drain the reactor chamber when closing a seasonal home
or leaving the unit in an area subject to freezing temperatures.
Operating & Maintenance Instructions:
Caution:
prior to performing any work on the
disinfection system, always disconnect the power
supply first. Do not use water during following
procedures.
UV Lamp Replacement:
NoTE: RESET LAMP LIFE TIMER AFTER LAMP REPLACEMENT
(PG 10) –
refer to www.lamprecycle.org for lamp disposal
1. To replace the lamp, there is NO need to disconnect the
system from the water supply, nor to drain the water from
the reactor chamber DO NOT USE WATER DURING THIS
PROCEDURE. Lamp replacement is a quick and
simple procedure requiring no special tools.The UV lamp
must be replaced after 9,000 hours of continuous
operation (approximately one year) in order to ensure
adequate disinfection.
2. Disconnect main power source and allow the unit to
power down for 30 sec. Remove the lamp connector by
sliding the metal retaining ring (Figure 2A) away from
the body of the connector. Remove connector and lamp
from the reactor chamber. Separate the lamp from the
connector (Figure 2B). Do not twist the lamp from the
connector, simply slide the two apart. Avoid touching
the lamp on the glass portion. Handling the lamp at
the ceramic ends is acceptable, however if you must
touch the lamp glass, please use gloves or a soft cloth.
Fully remove the lamp from the reactor chamber being
careful not to angle the lamp as it is removed from the
chamber. If the lamp is removed on an angle, pressure
will be applied on the inside of the quartz sleeve, causing
the sleeve to fracture.
3. To install a new lamp, first remove the lamp from its
protective packaging, again being careful not to touch
the lamp glass itself. Carefully insert the lamp into the
reactor vessel (actually inside the quartz sleeve) (Figure
2C). Insert the lamp fully into the chamber leaving about
two inches of the lamp protruding from the chamber.
Next, attach the connector to the UV lamp (Figure 2B).
The connector is “keyed” and will only allow correct
installation in one position. Ensure the connector is fully
seated onto the UV lamp (Figure 2D).
