Operating and Maintenance Instructions
NOTE: Prior to performing any work on the sterilizer, always disconnect the power supply first
1) Regularly inspect your sterilizer to ensure that the UV lamp is operating.
2) Replace the UV lamp with a new lamp after one year of continuous use to ensure a high bacteria and virus kill rate.
It should be noted that the UV lamp should be ON continuously as repeatedly turning the lamp on and off will
severely shorten the lamp life and allow bacteria to pass through without being affected by the UV.
3) To replace the UV lamp, first disconnect power. Disconnect the lamp connector by carefully separating it from the
gland nut (use the aid of a slot screwdriver if required). Disconnect lamp connector from lamp and carefully remove
the UV lamp. Replace the new lamp being careful not to touch the new UV lamp "glass" with your fingers as oils
impair UV transmission. If contact does occur, clean with alcohol and reconnect carefully replace lamp into stainless
steel cell. Press lamp connector into aluminum gland nut. Plug power source into outlet. Verify "POWER-ON LED"
is illuminated and ballast audible start-up sequence operates.
4) If the water contains any hardness minerals (calcium or magnesium), iron or manganese, the quartz sleeve
will require periodic cleaning. To remove the quartz sleeve, first remove the UV lamp as outlined in step 3
and follow the following steps:
A) Shut off water supply and drain all lines.
B) Remove the lower connection on the sterilizer and drain the UV chamber (use a small bucket under the
unit to prevent a spill).
C) Remove aluminum gland unit from chamber. (Do not allow quartz sleeve to fall).
D) Carefully remove o-rings from the quartz sleeve. As the o-ring may tend to adhere to the quartz sleeve,
it is recommended to replace the o-rings annually.
E) Clean the quartz sleeve with a cloth soaked in vinegar or some other mild acid and then rinse.
F) Re-assemble the quartz sleeve in the UV chamber allowing the sleeve to protrude an equal distance
from both ends of the UV chamber.
G) Wet the o-rings and slide onto each end of the quartz sleeve and re-assemble the gland nuts (hand
tight is sufficient).
H) Re-tighten all connections, turn on water and check for leaks.
I) Re-install the UV lamp and lamp connector as per prior instructions.
J) Plug in ballast and verify the "POWER-ON LED" is illuminated and ballast power-up sequence operates.
Note: If the system is put on a temporary by-pass or if it becomes contaminated after the sterilizer, it will be
necessary to shock the system with household bleach for a full 20 minutes before resuming the use of
the water.
