Congratulations on the purchase of your ultraviolet (UV) water system! This
system uses the most advanced UV technology on the market and is designed to
provide you with years of trouble free operation with minimal maintenance. To
ensure ongoing optimal operation, UV lamps need to be replaced annually with
VIQUA factory-supplied replacements. VIQUA lamps are the result of extensive
development resulting in a highly efficient platform with extremely stable UV
output over the entire 9000 hour lifetime. Its success has led to a
proliferation of non-genuine copies in the market. The UV lamp is the heart of
the UV system, and there should be no compromise when it’s time for a
replacement. Why should you insist on genuine factory supplied VIQUA
replacement lamps? · Use of widely available, non-genuine, replacement lamps
has been shown to
damage the control module of VIQUA UV equipment. · An increasing number of
calls to VIQUA Technical Support are connected with non-
genuine lamps being used (unknowingly) as replacements. · Damage arising from
the use of non-genuine lamps poses a safety risk and is not
covered by equipment warranty. · Unless the UV equipment is equipped with a UV
sensor (monitor), it is not possible to
verify the UV (invisible) output of replacement lamps. · Similar appearance to
the original lamp and the presence of (visible) blue light does
not mean equivalent performance. · VIQUA replacement lamps undergo rigorous
performance testing and strict quality
control processes to ensure that the safety and performance certifications of
the original equipment are not compromised. So, you can see that it’s simply
not worth the risk! Insist on genuine VIQUA replacement lamps.

Safety Information
WARNING
- During extended periods of no water flow, the water in your chamber can become very hot (Approx. 60 °C) and potentially lead to scalding. It is recommended to run your water until this hot water has been purged from your chamber. Do not allow water to contact your skin during this time. To eliminate this condition, a temperature management valve can be installed at the outlet of your UV system.
- Do not pass water through the UV system for a minimum of 5 minutes after applying power (including after power interruptions) to avoid passing under-treated water that may, in rare instances, pose health hazards.
- This system contains a UV Lamp. Do not operate the UV Lamp when it is removed from the chamber. Unintended use or damage of the system UV may result in the exposure of dangerous UV radiation. UV radiation may, even in little doses, cause harm to the eyes and skin.
- Changes or modifications made to this system without the consent of the manufacturer could render the system unsafe for operation and may void the manufacturer’s warranty.
WARNING: This product can expose you to chemicals including phthalates, which is known to the state of California to cause cancer, and mercury, which is known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.
CAUTION
Failure to follow these instructions could result in minor or moderate injury.
- Carefully examine the UV system after installation. It should not be plugged in if there is water on parts not intended to be wet such as, the controller or lamp connector.
- Due to thermal expansion concerns and potential material degradation due to UV exposure, it is recommended to use metal fittings and at least 10″ of copper pipe on the outlet of your UV chamber.
Hg · Hg EXPOSURE: The UV lamp contains mercury. If the lamp breaks, then avoid inhalation or ingestion of the debris and avoid exposure to eyes and skin. Never use a vacuum cleaner to clean up a broken lamp as this may scatter the spilled mercury. Obey local regulations and guidelines for the removal and disposal of mercury waste.
NOTICE
- The UV system has been validated through microbial testing. Through this testing, performance data has been generated for UV dose delivery to inactivate Cryptosporidium, Giardia, Escherichia coli (E. Coli) and Fecal Coliform.
- The UV lamp inside the UV system is rated at an effective life of approximately 9000 hours. To ensure continuous protection, replace the UV lamp annually.

- Read and understand the Owner’s Manual before operating and performing any maintenance on this equipment.
1.3 Water Chemistry
Water quality is extremely important for the optimum performance of your UV system. The following levels are recommended for installation:
Water Quality and Minerals
Iron Hardness* Turbidity Manganese Tannins UV Transmittance
Level
< 0.3 ppm (0.3 mg/L) < 7 gpg (120 mg/L) < 1 NTU < 0.05 ppm (0.05 mg/L) < 0.1
ppm (0.1 mg/L) > 75% (call factory for recommendations on applications where
UVT < 75%)
- Where total hardness is less than 7 gpg, the UV unit should operate efficiently provided the quartz sleeve is cleaned periodically. If total hardness exceeds 7 gpg, the water should be softened. If your water chemistry contains levels in excess of those mentioned above, proper pre-treatment is recommended to correct these water problems prior to the installation of

Maintenance
Section 5 Maintenance
WARNING
· Always disconnect power before performing any work on the UV system. ·
Always shut-off water flow and release water pressure before servicing. ·
Regularly inspect your UV 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 performance. · Always drain the chamber
when closing a seasonal home or leaving the unit in an area subject to
freezing temperatures. · During extended periods of no water flow, the water
in your chamber can become very hot (Approx. 60 °C) and potentially lead to
scalding. It is
recommended to run your water until this hot water has been purged from your
chamber. Do not allow water to contact your skin during this time. To
eliminate this condition, a temperature management valve can be installed at
the outlet of your UV system.
5.1 Replacing UV Lamp
Do not use water during replacement of UV lamp.
NOTICE
Lamp replacement is a quick and simple procedure requiring no special tools.
The UV lamp must be replaced after 9000 hours of continuous operation
(approximately one year) in order to ensure adequate performance.

until an audible click is heard.
Note: Ensure the connector is engaged on both sides.
· Reset lamp timer.
Maintenance
5.2 Cleaning and Replacing Quartz Sleeve
Note: Minerals in the water slowly form a coating on the quartz sleeve. This
coating must be removed because it reduces the amount of UV light reaching the
water, thereby reducing performance. If the sleeve can not be cleaned, it must
be replaced. Prerequisites: · Shut off water supply and drain all lines. ·
Depressurize the unit. Place a small pail under the unit to catch any spills.
· Remove the UV lamp. Refer to Section 5.1.
Procedure:

Mild Acid
· Clean the quartz sleeve with a cloth soaked in CLR, vinegar or some other
mild acid and then rinse with water.
Note: If sleeve cannot be cleaned completely or it is scratched or cracked,
then replace the sleeve.
· Place O-ring on the sleeve as shown. Insert the sleeve into the chamber as shown in step 4.
· Ensure quartz sleeve is properly centered in the chamber.
1
· Place sleeve bolt onto the quartz sleeve, carefully push down and hand
tighten onto chamber.
· When service is complete, assemble the prerequisites in the reverse order of
disassembly.
Notes: 1) After replacing the UV lamp or sleeve perform the cleaning
procedure, refer to Section 3.2. 2) If the system is put on a temporary by-
pass or if it becomes contaminated after the UV system, it is necessary to
complete the cleaning procedure. Refer to Section 3.2.
