worldwide. However power spikes, surges and brownouts are a common
occurrence in all countries. When that happens, line voltages may fluctuate
outside the systems’ operating specifications.
Installation of the supplied TVSS/SPD between the UV system and the power
source will increase the ability of the system to survive transient events on the
AC power. This will help to ensure uninterrupted water treatment and reduce the
risk of costly repairs due to damage from power spikes, surges and brownouts
which are NOT COVERED BY UV PURE TECHNOLOGIES’ Limited Warranty.
Shutting Down of Unit and Seasonal Use
To power down the Upstream, press Enter when the screen displays “Unit
Treating”. Select
Shutdown Unit from the main menu and after the message You
may safely unplug your unit appears, unplug the unit. If an alarm condition exists,
the Upstream is to be simply unplugged to power down.
The Upstream can operate for extended periods of time without water usage
as
long as the water supply is present. The unit may be shutdown in the case of
seasonal residences or during a vacation. If the possibility of freezing exists, the
unit and any filters must be drained. (See Draining the Unit.) Upon returning,
reconnect all fittings, close all valves and turn on water supply. Plug in the
Upstream and when operational, flush the water through the unit for at least 5
minutes.
Caution: When the unit is not operating, the solenoid valve (optional) remains
closed. If the solenoid valve is forced open or if the optional bypass piping is
used, untreated water may enter the plumbing system. Emergency use of
untreated water is the only situation where the bypass piping should be used.
Any water used for drinking should be boiled. Unplug the unit if the bypass is
used.
Do not run the unit dry. This will cause potential damage and
scratching of the quartz sleeve.
Disinfecting the Plumbing
Disinfection of the household or facility plumbing should be performed after the
Upstream has been installed and is operating. This procedure should also be
done if the unit is not functioning normally, if the bypass has been used, or if
there has been a high background bacteria count in a water sample. Disinfecting
the plumbing will ensure that any potential bacteria or contaminants in the
distribution system are treated prior to system use.
Please note that this procedure is ineffective against protozoa that can be found
in surface water or shallow wells under the influence of surface water. Under
these circumstances, it is important to perform the disinfecting procedure and
then operate the Upstream.
This procedure does not work with sediments or heavy biofilm and encrustations,
which must be removed mechanically.
The accepted practice for sanitizing the household or facility plumbing involves
adding 50 ppm chlorine from bleach for 12 hours and then flushing. This can be
