Important Information
The vessel is rated to 700 kpa. The unit must be installed with an Australian Standards
Approved PLV (Pressure Limiting Valve).
A shut off valve must be installed prior to the unit in order to turn the water off and to ensure the
flow is restricted to the unit for servicing.
Ensure adequate clearance at the lamp connection end of the unit in order to safely remove the
lamp from the chamber for servicing and lamp replacement. Space required is at least the
length of the UV chamber.
*NOTE* - UV systems are NOT water filters. They are unable to eliminate bad tastes or smells,
biological material, chemicals, silt, heavy metals and other kinds of impurities and it does not
reduce sediments which effects the efficiency of the UV lamp.
Water Quality Parameters
Water quality is extremely important for the performance of your UV system. The following
levels are recommended for installation.
Hardness
< 120 ppm
Turbidity
< 1.0 NTU
Iron
< 0.3 ppm
Manganese
< 0.05 ppm
Tannins
< 0.1 ppm
Chloride
< 200 ppm
If you water chemistry contains levels in excess of the above, pre-treatment is recommended.
Contact your distributor for advice. Proper pre-treatment is essential for the UV system to
operate as intended.
Pre-treatment must include at least a 1mic sediment filter installed prior to the unit to ensure
that particles capable of shielding pathogens are removed from the water prior to entering the
system.
*IMPORTANT* - DO NOT use water that is murky from Colloidal Clay.
TO TEST – Fill glass and let sit overnight. If murkiness has settled to bottom,
sediment in not clay.
