1. Shut off the main water supply valve.
2. Mount the unit to the wall in the selected location using the brackets and screws
provided.
(Fig. 1)
3. Mount the power supply beside or above the reactor vessel to assure that any
leaks cannot migrate to the power source. Never mount the power supply
below the reactor chamber. (Fig 2)
DO NOT PLUG IN AT THIS TIME.
4.
NOTE:
Wrap all threaded plumbing connections with Teflon tape prior to
assembly. Do not use Teflon tape on the chamber end caps.
5.
The unit must be installed
vertically
with the inlet and outlet ports accessible.
The lamp connection must be at the highest point. (End with ground terminal)
This will assure that any dripping condensation or possible leaks will not migrate
to the lamp harness or electrical connections. The water inlet port must be the
lowest port. This allows air to escape the housing, and ensures proper flow
past the UV lamp and sensor. (Fig. 2)
6.
Install the flow restrictor to the inlet port (lower port). The arrow on the restrictor
indicates the direction of the water flow. (Fig. 3 & 4) The arrow should be
pointing towards the chamber.
7.
Screw the brass thermal relief valve into the SST adaptor, ensuring the O-ring
is attached to the brass valve as shown in fig 5A. Hand t ¼ turn with a
wrench. Now install the SST thermal relief valve adaptor to the outlet port (upper
port) Fig. 6. Attach the 3/8” flexible tube to the barbed fitting on the valve and
run the tube to the drain.
8.
Connect new plumbing to the flow restrictor (lower) and the thermal adapter
(upper). Make sure to install shutoff valves and unions before and after the unit
for servicing. Note: If installing a pre-filter, use a 5-micron filter and ensure the
direction of water flow through the filter housing is correct.
9. If a solenoid valve is going to be used, the valve can be mounted directly to the
inlet port feed line. Keep a minimum of 12” (30cm) distance from the thermal
valve if the solenoid valve has to be installed on the output port.
