HOW IT WORKS
Inside the reactor a UV-C lamp produces radiation with a wavelength of 253.7
nm. Radiation of this type kills bacteria, viruses, algae and fungi (e.g.
Legionella and Cryptosporidium). The UV-C unit produces clean, fresh, clear
water in an efficient, environmentally friendly way. The water is fed through
the
UV-C device by a pump. The UV-C radiation neutralizes bacteria, viruses and
other micro-organisms and prevents them from reproducing. Floating algae is
also destroyed by this radiation, which greatly improves the clarity of the
water. The UV-C unit is equipped with an electronic ballast. This ballast
ensures optimum performance of the lamp.
In addition, the stainless steel reactor reflects the UV-C radiation,
increasing efficiency by up to 35%. Thanks to the UV-C unit, the water is
disinfected efficiently and safely, providing you with excellent water quality.
Overdosing with UV-C is not possible.
INSTALLATION OF EARTHING (DRAWING)
- Before the plastic strain relief (4) is fitted on the earthing bolt (1), first pull the cable (2) through the strain relief (4). Place the strain relief (4) about 10 cm from the eye (2) of the earthing cable.
- Place the eye (2) of the cable over the earthing bolt that is attached to the housing.
- Then place a serrated lock washer (3).
- Attach the strain relief (4) to create a Ø5 cm loop.
- Finally, place the second serrated lock washer (5) and the lock nut (6) on the earthing bolt.
- Once the parts have been placed on the earthing bolt in the correct order, it can be tightened with an 8 mm open-end or ring spanner.
POSSIBLE INSTALLATION AND FLOW DIRECTION:
POSSIBLE INSTALLATION:
WARNING:
- Always ensure proper earthing. In case of doubt about the earthing or the electrical installation in general, always consult a qualified electrician. Incorrect earthing can be dangerous and/or lead to corrosion of stainless steel or aluminium reactors.
- Make sure the reactor is always grounded.
DEVICE INSTALLATION (FIGURE 2)
Decide where you want to mount the device. Never install the UV-C unit after
the pH controller, chlorine dispenser or salt electrolysis system in the
swimming pool installation. The best place to install the device is directly
after the filter. See the schematic diagram in the operating instructions. Make
sure there is always water flowing through the device when the lamp is on.
Never install the device in direct sunlight. Install the device in a dry,
well-ventilated area. The device can be installed either horizontally or
vertically, provided that the water flow is from bottom to top (see schematic
diagram at the beginning of the instructions for use), with 30 cm of
unobstructed space on the side opposite the lamp connection for future
maintenance. At least one metre of unobstructed space must be left on the side
with the lamp connection for convenient future replacement of the lamp (K)
without having to disconnect the entire device.
CAUTION: All connections and couplings must be hand-tight. Do not tighten them with tools. Otherwise damage may occur.
- Unscrew the nut (N) from the housing (U). Remove the UV-C lamp (K) from the supplied tube (see packaging) and carefully slide the lamp into the quartz sleeve (M). Place the lamp (K) with the contact pins in the lamp fitting (L) and then tighten the nut (N) on the housing (U).
- Fit the supplied pipe clamps (O). Then insert the unit into the pipe clamps. Tighten the threepiece coupling (I) firmly, while ensuring the correct position of the sealing rings (P), both at the connections and the quartz sleeve (see figure 2).
- Mount the unit in the circuit by means of the three-piece coupling (I) and the glue coupling for the flow switch (V For amalgam only). The glue connections of the three-piece coupling are Ø63 mm or 2”. If the pipes are smaller than Ø63 mm or 2”, use the Ø63 x 50 mm (T) or 2” x 1.5” x 1” adapter. This can be glued in the three-piece coupling (I) and in the glue coupling for the flow switch (V For amalgam only). The inside of the adapter (T) has internal screw threads at one end, making it possible to fit a hose tail adapter (not included) with sealing ring.
- Insert the plug of the UV-C device into an earthed wall socket that is protected by a residual current device.
- Look through the transparent parts of the device to make sure the lamp is lit.
- The device is shut off when power is disconnected from the device.
*For amalgam only - The glue coupling for the flow switch (V) must be positioned on the three-piece coupling (I) with the screw thread (W) facing up (see figure 2). The glue coupling (V) can be glued to a three-piece coupling (I). Mount the flow switch (X) which is attached to the electrical section (S) directly to the screw thread (U) of the glue coupling (V) (see figure 2). If the flow switch is mounted differently, the device will not work. The arrow on top of the flow switch (X) must always point in the direction of water flow. If it points in the direction opposite the water flow, the UV-C device will remain off.
- When no water is flowing through the device, the flow switch automatically switches the unit off.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE DIGITAL HOUR METER
When the UV-C device is switched on, the program will perform a self-
diagnostic test. The display shows the following indications automatically,
one after the other: 8888 (display test); r and software version number; 50H
or 60H indication of the network frequency. Then the display switches to the
hour meter mode. When the UV-C lamp is switched on for the first time, or after
the reset function is used, the value 9,000 will appear on the display. A
decimal point flashes beside the rightmost digit on the display every second to
indicate that the counter is running. The display is automatically set to the
factory hour meter reading of 9,000 hours. Up to 9,000 hours the UV-C lamp
produces its rated radiation level. After 9,000 hours the radiation
diminishes. The radiation may then be insufficient to achieve the desired
results. If the UV-C lamp has been in use for some time and has been switched
on before, each time it is switched on the display will show the value it had
before the UV-C lamp was switched off. If the count of the hour meter is
increased or decreased, the reading it had before the display was switched off
will be shown. The hour meter settings can be changed if desired. This can be
done as follows: After holding in the switch (R) located below the display for
5 seconds, the display shows ‘rSt’ indicating that the user menu has been
selected. After releasing the switch (R) the counter and ‘rSt’ alternate on
the display. Now each brief press of the button will step through the menu
options. There are three setting options in the menu: ‘rSt’, ‘up’ and ‘dn’.
The hour meter indicates that the lamp must be replaced as follows:
- From hour meter reading 0672 the display flashes each second. The lamp should be replaced within 4 weeks.
- From hour meter reading 0336 the display flashes each half second. The lamp should be replaced within 2 weeks.
- From hour meter reading 0168 the display flashes each second. The lamp should be replaced within 1 week.
- When the hour meter reading reaches 0000, the numbers will flash quickly and the counter will no longer count down. The lamp must be replaced.
DISASSEMBLY/MAINTENANCE
Always disconnect the power supply during maintenance/disassembly of the
device.
The device must be cleaned at least twice a year. When there is a significant
amount of algal growth and/ or lime build-up in the unit the quartz sleeve (M)
must be cleaned.
The special lamp must be replaced after the number of hours of operation has
elapsed. The inside of the reactor can be cleaned with a soft brush.
- Let the water flow out of the device.
- Unscrew the nut (N) and remove the lamp (K) from the fitting (L). Remove the lamp from the quartz sleeve, and replace the special lamp (K) if necessary. Caution is advised as these are very delicate parts.
- Carefully remove the quartz sleeve (M) (see figure 3). Never use force! CAUTION: Always wear protective gloves and glasses.
- Clean the quartz sleeve with an appropriate cleanser. Always use a soft cloth to clean the sleeve and avoid scratches.
- Carefully place the lamp back in the quartz sleeve, fit the O-ring (T) back onto the quartz sleeve and connect the lamp (K) to the fitting (L). Screw the nut (N) back onto the housing.
If the housing or the electrical section must be replaced, the earthing must
first be disconnected from the housing. Please read the Installation and
Disassembly section before installing a new housing or electrical section.
Make sure you save the various separate parts for the earth connection. These
are not supplied with a new housing or electrical section. If in doubt about
the connection, consult a qualified installer.
