Safety Considerations
Although your UV system has been manufactured to the highest safety standards, care must be followed when operating and/or maintaining your system.1.
-
Please read the instructions.
– This appliance contains a UV-C emitter.
– Unintended use of the appliance or damage to the housing may result in the escape of dangerous UV-C radiation. UV-C radiation may, even in little doses, cause harm to the eyes and skin.
– The appliance must be disconnected from the supply before replacing the UV-C emitter.
– The appliance is intended to be permanently connected to the water mains and not connected by a hose-set. -
Before servicing this equipment, disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet.
-
Energy given off by the UV lamp is harmful to your eyes and skin. NEVER look directly at an illuminated UV lamp without adequate eye protection and always protect your skin from direct exposure to the UV light. WARNING: Do not operate the UV-C emitter when it is removed from the appliance enclosure.
-
The appliance is not to be used by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction.
-
Children should be supervised so that they do not play with the appliance.
-
The appliance is to be supplied through a residual current device (RCD) having a rated residual operating current not exceeding 30mA.
-
Maximum working voltage of built-n UV driver U-OUT-250V
-
Maximum operating pressure stated in the instruction manual is 1034 kPa (150 psi).
-
For complete disinfection, use ONLY genuine Microlene replacement parts.
-
Do not operate the unit if it has any damaged or missing components.
-
To avoid possible electrical shock, use only with a properly grounded electrical outlet.
-
Never perform any maintenance to the system unless you are comfortable in doing so. Contact the manufacturer for service instructions if required.
-
Do not use this system for any purpose other than what it was intended for. Misuse of this system could potentially cause harm to the user or others.
-
Your system is intended to be installed indoors and away from leaking plumbing.
DO NOT plug the unit in if the system or any of the components are wet. The UV system should only be installed outdoors if a suitable covering has been installed to prevent direct contact with the environment (Rain). -
The disinfection system should be directly installed into a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI). If the use of an extension cord is required, the cord must be manufactured with a minimum of 1.3mm (16 gauge) wire and care should be taken to avoid potential tripping hazards.
-
We recommend that a licensed plumber or certified technician install the system.
-
To protect your UV system from the weather, make sure the site is water proof, frost free and has adequate ventilation. Allow for drainage, to avoid damage to flooring etc., that over time may occur from leaking pipe joints or seals.
-
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
This product is not to be used for general lighting / illumination.
Before You Begin
The following will be needed for installing the UV system:
Tools
-
Pipe cutter, hacksaw or other specialised tools required to cut into your existing plumbing (e.g. if you have PEX piping)
-
Soldering tools such as torch, flux, emery cloth and solder (only applicable if working with copper pipes and connections)
-
Wrench (for tightening fittings)
Other Materials -
Inlet/outlet connections
-
Teflon™ tape
Water Quality Parameters
UV disinfection is extremely effective against microorganisms but only if the
UV light can pass through the water it needs to treat. This means that the
quality of your water is very important in order to ensure complete
disinfection.
Treated water should be tested for at the least the parameters listed below.
If the water exceeds the listed parameters Microlene strongly recommends that
appropriate pretreatment equipment be installed (equipment required will
depend on parameters being treated):
Hardness: <120ppm (120 mg/L) – if hardness level is 120ppm, or slightly below
the quartz sleeve must be cleaned periodically in order to ensure efficient UV
penetration; if above the water must be softened.
Iron (Fe): <0.3 ppm (0.3 mg/L)
Manganese (Mn): <0.05 ppm (0.05 mg/L)
Turbidity: < 1 NTU
Tannins (organics): <0.1 ppm (0.1 mg/L)
UVT (transmittance): >85% (Please contact Microlene if water has a UVT that is
less than 80% for pre-treatment recommendations)
You can have your water tested at a private analytical laboratory or by your
local dealer.
It is always recommended to install pre-filtration of at least 1 micron prior
to a Microlene UV disinfection system.
High Output (HO) Lamp System UV30-CA / UV68-CA System Sizing
All DAVEY NSF UV systems are rated for a specific flow rate in water that
meets the quality parameters on page 5. The NSF systems have a built in flow
restrictor to ensure flow does not exceed the specification design.
Location
For Point of Entry (POE) systems, choose a location where the main cold water
line is accessible. The system must be installed after other water treatment
equipment (softener or filters), but before any branches (See Figure 1).
Microlene recommends that a 1 micron filter be installed before the UV system
for a final polishing step before the water is disinfected.To facilitate lamp removal, ensure there is enough space at the
lamp connector end to safely remove the UV lamp and/or quartz sleeve (See
Figure 2). The controller will require a ground fault circuit interrupter
(GFCI or GFI) outlet and should be mounted beside or above the chamber.
IMPORTANT:
All Microlene UV Disinfection Systems are intended to be installed under a
weather proof cover and should not be exposed to the open elements.
Installation
Step 1: The chamber can be installed either horizontally, or vertically
using the clamps provided. Vertical installation is the preferred method with
the inlet at the bottom (lamp connection at the top) as it allows any air that
may be in the lines to be easily purged from the system.
If the chamber is being mounted horizontally, it should be mounted so that
water flows out of the threaded outlet upwards.
This ensures the chamber is completely full of water before existing the
chamber, allowing the water maximum exposure time to the UV light.
Step 2: The use of a by-pass assembly is recommended as it will allow you
to isolate the UV chamber. This will allow for easier access in case
maintenance is required (See Figure 4).
Step 3: Fasten chamber clamps to wall with screws provided. The screws
must anchor securely into solid wood, concrete, or steel structure for
adequate strength. Do not attempt to secure screws into drywall (Figure 3a).
Install Chamber into clamps (Figure 3b).
Step 5: It is recommended to have a licensed plumber connect the UV
chamber to the water supply and may be a requirement depending on where you
are located. **![microlene UV30 CA UV Water Treatment System
- Location 3](https://manuals.plus/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/microlene-UV30
-CA-UV-Water-Treatment-System-Location-3.jpg)Note: Installation of your
Microlene UV Disinfection System shall comply with applicable provincial/state
& local regulations.
Step 6: Once the system has been plumbed in, gently remove the quartz sleeve from its packaging being careful not to touch the length with your hands. The use of cotton gloves is recommended for this procedure as oils from the hands can leave residue on the sleeve and lamp which can ultimately block the UV light from getting to the water.
Carefully slide the sleeve into the chamber until you can feel it hit the opposite end of the chamber. Align the sleeve so it centered along the length of the chamber, then gently push it in to lock it into the internal centering springs in the far side of the chamber. CAUTION: Pushing too hard when the sleeve is not aligned can damage the centering springs. Slide the o-ring onto the sleeve until it is butted up against the chamber. Step 7: Hand tighten the provided gland nut over the quartz sleeve onto the threaded end of the chamber. It has a positive stop to prevent over-tightening. A firm force may be required to fully tighten the gland nut, but DO NOT USE TOOLS for this step. Insert the provided stainless steel compression spring into the quartz sleeve. The spring works with the lamp and lamp connector to create the proper lamp alignment. PLEASE NOTE:
DO NOT install a UV lamp inside the quartz sleeve without the sleeve spring in place.
Step 8: Install the UV sensor. Align the flat portion so it faces the gland nut end and matches up with the half metal lip on the sensor port (see Figure 6). Insert the sensor so it is fully seated and hand tighten the sensor nut. Step 9: The chamber is now ready for water flow. When all plumbing connections have been completed, slowly turn on the water supply and check for leaks. Make sure the bypass valves are functioning properly and that the water is flowing through the chamber. The most common leak is from the o-ring not making a proper seal on the chamber. For new installations, review steps 5 and 6. For older systems drain the chamber, remove the o-ring, dry it and reapply silicon grease. Reinstall the o-ring ensuring that it is properly sealed against the chamber and check again for leaks.
Step 10: Fasten controller securely to wall with screws provided. Drywall anchors may be used. Note that the controller must be mounted vertically for adequate airflow across the aluminum heat sink on back (see Figure 7). Insert the sensor connector into the IEP located on the right side of the controller (Figure 8). For the sensor to be recognized by the controller, the controller power must be plugged in last. Do not plug the controller power cord in before the last step.
Step 11: Always hold UV lamps by their ceramic ends, not by the lamp quartz. Remove the lamp from its packaging. Again, the use of cotton gloves is recommended. Remove the lamp key from the lamp’s connector. The lamp key will only be used if the Extra Smart Controller has been purchased to swap out with the standard controller supplied on initial purchase. Standard controller does not use the lamp key therefore lamp key can be discarded. Be careful to not touch the key’s exposed contacts. Insert the UV lamp into the chamber, being careful not to drop it. Step 12: Install the lamp key into the controller. The key always comes packaged with the lamp and sits on the connector. With the key removed from the lamp, orient it so the label is upright and facing you. The key will plug into the lamp key port on the right side of the controller (Figure 10).
Step 13: Plug the lamp connector into the lamp. Note the keying for proper alignment (see Figure 9). Insert the lamp connector into the gland nut and turn the connector approximately ¼ turn to lock the connector to the gland nut as in Figure 11. Step 14: Tighten the captive ground screw to the ground lug on the UV chamber to ensure proper grounding. Step 15: Your system is now ready to be plugged into the appropriate GFCI 10A GPO (230V 1phase) protected outlet. Refer to the following section before any water is allowed to flow through the system.
System Disinfection
With a new installation, or any time the UV system is shut down for service, without power, or is inoperative for any other reason, the lines in the home or facility could be contaminated. Use the following steps to fully disinfect the lines throughout the entire home or facility.
Step 1: Check for and remove any “dead ends” in the lines throughout the home as these can harbour bacteria. Plug in the UV system and wait until it is ready for operation.
Step 2: Remove the filter cartridge from the last sump and fill it with 1-2 cups of household bleach (most are 5.25% chlorine). Replace the sump and slowly turn on the water supply.
Step 3: At a water outlet, run the water until bleach can be smelled. Repeat this for all faucets, toilets, shower heads, refrigerators, outdoor taps, the washing machine, dishwasher, etc. at the home or facility. Once finished, wait a minumum of 30 minutes before continuing.
Step 4: Reinstall the filter cartridge into the sump and flush the chlorine solution by opening all faucets until chlorine can no longer be detected. Your home has now been completely disinfected with your Microlene UV Disinfection System ready to inactivate any microorganisms that enter the home.
Cleaning the Quartz Sleeve
Depending on the water quality, the quartz sleeve may require periodic cleaning. At a minimum, the quartz sleeve should be cleaned on an annual basis. The following steps outline a basic cleaning procedure.
Step 1: If a by-pass assembly is installed, shut the inlet valve off to prevent water flow through the system. Otherwise, turn off main water inlet valve (and/or turn off the water pump).
Step 2: Disconnect power cord of UV system from electrical outlet.
Step 3: Release water pressure by opening a downstream faucet and then close the outlet shut-off valve (if any). If there is no outlet shut-off valve, expect water to drain from the system as the head pressure in the system will cause the water to flow back down.
Step 4: Remove the captive ground screw from the ground lug on the UV chamber.
Step 5: Remove the lamp connector from the chamber (gland nut) by pushing the lamp connector in and turning it ¼ turn counter-clockwise. Disconnect the lamp connector from the lamp. CAUTION: the lamp may be hot!
Step 6: Being careful to touch only the ceramic ends, remove the lamp out of the chamber.
Step 7: Unscrew the gland nut from the chamber exposing the end of the quartz sleeve.
Step 8: Remove the quartz sleeve and o-ring by gently twisting and pulling the quartz sleeve.
Step 9: Using a soft, lint-free cloth or towel wipe the sleeve down using a commercial scale cleaner (i.e. CLR® or LIME-A-WAY® ). This removes scaling or iron deposits that may be on the outside of the quartz sleeve. Be careful not to get any moisture or liquids inside of the sleeve.
Step 10: Dry the sleeve with separate cloth.
Step 11: Replace the o-ring and slide the sleeve back into the chamber following steps 7 and 8 from the installation section of the manual.
Cleaning the UV Sensor
Depending on the water quality, the UV sensor may require periodic cleaning. At a minimum, the UV sensor should be cleaned on an annual basis. The following steps outline a basic cleaning procedure.
Step 1: If a by-pass assembly is installed, shut the inlet valve off to prevent water flow through the system. Otherwise, turn off main water inlet valve (and/or turn off the water pump).
Step 2: Disconnect power cord of UV system from electrical outlet.
Step 3: Release water pressure by opening a downstream faucet and then close the outlet shut-off valve (if any). If there is no outlet shut-off valve, expect water to drain from the system as the head pressure in the system will cause the water to flow back down.
Step 4: Place something under the chamber to catch any water that may come out of the chamber during the removal of the UV sensor.
Step 5: Unscrew (counterclockwise) sensor nut from the chamber and pull the sensor slowly out of the sensor port.
Step 6: Holding the sensor in your hand wipe the flat portion (sensor face) of the sensor with isopropyl alcohol using a clean lint-free cloth.
Step 7: Replace sensor following step 9 from the installation section of the manual.
Operation
Microlene UV Disinfection Systems come with a feature laden controller that incorporates both the lamp driver (ballast) and control features in one water- tight case. All models feature a power factor corrected, constant current lamp driver with a universal power input.
Please Note: While the LCD or display screen is red and the buzzer is sounding the water from the system should NOT be consumed. If any water does pass through the system during this period, please follow the disinfection procedure as outlined in this manual before the water is consumed. Please have your water checked for microbiological contaminants on a regular basis.
IMPORTANT:** Installation of a backflow valve should be in compliance with all local water authority regulations and in accordance with AS/NZS 3500.1.2 and complying with AS/NZS 2845.1.
MCXS Controllers
A full colour LCD screen provides the user with a detailed description of the
system’s performance in addition to providing any applicable fault messages
and system diagnostics. All controllers include an “infinite expandability
port” located on the right side of the controller.
Simply plug in a UV sensor module into the expandability port of a controller
for the system to monitor the UV intensity of the system.
MCXS Power-up Sequence
On start up, the controller will run through a diagnostic start-up and the
sequence will be displayed as follows on the colour LCD:Next, the controller checks for and initialises any optional
modules that may be attached to the system.Optional Modules
Check
- UV Sensor*
- Solenoid
- 4-20 mA
- Remote Alarm
- Flow Meter
A final module screen is displayed showing which specific modules that were
initialised.
The controller then displays the lamp optimisation screen for 60 seconds to
allow the lamp to reach its optimum output. Finally, a final “start-up
complete” screen is displayed. The system will now be ready to disinfect water
flow.* Included with UV30-CA / UV68-CA systems.
Operational Screens
On systems without the UV monitor, the default screen shows the Microlene Home
Screen. At any point during operation the user is able to scroll through the
Microlene Home Screen, Lamp life remaining, QR Code, Contact Info and
Maintenance Parts screens by pressing the button located on the front of the
controller.On systems with the UV monitor, the system
will display the same screens except the UV Intensity replaces the home
screen. The UV Intensity screen displays the level of UV light detected by the
sensor. UV intensity can be affected by poor water quality, scaling on the
quartz sleeve and/or sensor, lamp failure or lamp expiring. The following
screens show the UV Intensity dropping.Below 56%, the
numbers and warning sign turn red and an audible chirp is given by the ballast
every 15 seconds. Below 51%, the screen is solid red and a constant audible
alarm is given. This alternates with a screen indicating “water may be unsafe
for consumption”. If you have a solenoid module the controller de-activates
the solenoid valve, shutting off all water flow.Lamp Countdown
Sequence
The system counts down the number of days until a lamp change is required.
At thirty days remaining, the display screen
will change to a yellow caution indicator. At seven days remaining, the sytem
will additionaly repeat an audible chirp. Past the zero day threshold, the
display screen changes to solid red with a continuous buzzer. At any point during this sequence, the audible chirp or alarm
can be deferred for seven days by holding the controller button down for a
period of five seconds. The number of deferrals used will be displayed as
below. Once the deferral expires, the alarm will sound once again. The
deferral can be repeated up to three times. PLEASE NOTE: At any point after
lamp expiration, the water may be unsafe for consumption and should not be
consumed without another form of disinfection. System Service Suggested
Controllers will display the System Service Suggested Screen every 6 months to
remind consumers to maintain both their UV and other prefiltration. This will
serve as a prompt only and will not put the system into alarm. To clear this
condition simply press the button located below the screen. Lamp
Replacement
After the lamp is expired, it must be replaced with the same part number as
indicated on the Maintenance Parts screen or on the label on the chamber. With
the system powered down, remove and discard the lamp key from the controller.
The replacement lamp is packaged with a lamp key on the connector at the end
of the lamp. Remove the key from the lamp and place it in the controller.
Refer to Installation, starting with step 11 (page 11) for instructions on
installing the new lamp.

inlet side of the Flowmeter. As well the direction of flow is in the correct
direction.
2. Verify installation is correct, remove any air bubbles from water supply,
add filtering to reduce solid particles from entering Flowmeter.
3. Replace Flowmeter.
Warning: After any hard alarm, the home or facility should be
disinfected. Follow the steps under the “System Disinfection” heading.
ATTENTION: If any failure occurs on a Microlene UV Disinfection System,
the water must not be used for human consumption until the system is returned
to a safe operational mode. If the water is used for human consumption during
this period, the water must be boiled (minimum 20 minutes at a full boil)
prior to consumption. Alternatively, use Davey Acquasafe to disinfect the
water.
Temperature Management Devices
Your Microlene UV Disinfection System is designed to run continuously to
ensure optimal disinfection. However, during periods when no water is drawn
through the system, the energy from the disinfection process can cause the
temperature of the water inside the chamber to rise. In extreme situations
elevated water temperature or the fluctuation in temperature can lower the
output of the UV lamp. In these cases, or if the elevated water temperature is
a nuisance, Microlene recommends one of the following forms of temperature
management devices.
| Cooling Fan
The fan runs continuously to cool the water by forced convection. The long-
life fan is powered independently using a compact modular power adapter that
operates from 90-265V (47-63Hz). Order PN DM130014.
---|---
| Temperature Relief Valve (TRV)
On reaching a higher temperature, the TRV is designed to drain a small amount
of water to allow fresh, cooler water to enter the system. The TRV works
without power and comes complete with 10’ of drain line. Order PN DM130033 for
1” ports and PN DM130034 for 1 1/2” ports.
Expansion Modules
Controllers incorporate an “Infinite Expandability Port” (IEP) which allows
for expansion to the UV sensor and all other modules. Each module (including
the sensor) comes with both a male and female connection. Connect any device
to the controller and all subsequent devices are then connected into the
female end of last device added in a “daisy chain” configuration. The UV
sensor must only be supplied at SELV. REMOTE ALARM CONNECTION
MODULE:
Allows for a connection to a remote device such as a buzzer, light, alarm
system, PLC, etc., via a pair of contacts. In normal operation the OK and COM
contacts will be connected, and in a fault condition (Low UV, Lamp fail, Power
Fail), the Fault and COM contacts will be connected. Maximum Contact Rating is
30V / 1A (use 16-22 AWG).
Order PN DMMOD-RAM.
SOLENOID CONNECTION MODULE:
Connects a NORMALLY CLOSED line voltage solenoid valve to the controller. On a
non-monitored system, the solenoid will only close on a lamp failure error. On
a monitored system, the solenoid is closed when the UV level drops below 50%.
Also note that in cases where emergency use of untreated water is required,
the controller can be placed into a manual override mode allowing for the flow
of water in an alarm condition. Maximum contact rating is 240VAC (50-60Hz) /
30VDC / 2A. Order PN DMMOD-SOL1. 4-20 mA MODULE: Outputs a 4-20mA signal of
the UV output to a remote device such as a data logger or computer. Order PN
DMMOD-420.
