III.WARNING 

This appliance must be installed directly into a single socket surge protector before being 

connected to a 240V 10A General Power Outlet (Power Point). It must be a surge protector 

- Circuit Breakers and Residual Current Devices (RCDs) are not suitable substitutes as 

they do not protect the unit from power surges. 

 
Danger:
 Dangerous electrical voltage is present inside the power supply box & chamber. These instructions must be 
followed closely to prevent serious personal injury. Ensure eye protection is worn when servicing and installing this 
unit to protect from harmful UV-C Radiation. This radiation can be harmful to eyes and skin, UV lamps should only be 
used when properly installed in the irradiation chamber. The UV lamp must not be operated outside the chamber. 

 

This unit must be used only for its intended purpose as described by the manufacturer. 

 

This unit must be installed in accordance with this manual. 

 

The unit must be unplugged when not in use, before fitting or removing any parts. 

 

The unit must be electrically isolated before Maintenance, Cleaning or Lamp Replacement. 

 

The System will need to be de-pressurised before maintenance. 

 

The UV lamp is designed for continuous usage to reach full disinfection capacity. Frequently turning the 
system on/off will reduce the lamp’s effectiveness and may cause the lamp to fail. 

 

Do not attempt to use this sterilizer if it has been submerged. If this occurs, turn main power off, unplug the 
electrical connection and then retrieve the unit if safe to do so.  

 

Do not operate this unit if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is malfunctioning or if it has been dropped or 
been damaged in any manner. 

 

Always disconnect the water supply and completely drain the water purifier if it will be subjected to 
temperatures below freezing for extended periods of time. 

Overheating: For long periods of no flow the power should be turned OFF.  If the system is used intermittently, it is 
recommended to install a Thermal Relief Valve (TRV), which can be purchased separately. Excessive build-up of 
temperature in the chamber may cause the O-ring to deform and fail, causing leakage which can blow the 
lamp/power supply causing damage or personal injury. Installing a UV system without a TRV may void warranty – 
check the Warranty details for further clarification. 

IV. Before You Purchase/Open 

The system requires specific working conditions to be met before installation, some general guidelines* are listed 
below. If these conditions are not met, the system may not be suitable for the application and may not function as 
specified.These systems are designed for use in home applications on Main Water or Tank Water. For applications 
where raw water supplies are used (E.g. Bore, Dam, Creek) please contact the manufacturer for technical assistance 
to determine if your application is suitable for these systems.
