Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury or damage to the equipment. Make sure that the protection provided by this equipment is not impaired.
Safety Information WA R N I N G During extended periods of no water flow, the water in your chamber can become very hot (Approx. 60 °C) and potentially lead to scalding. It is recommended to run your water until this hot water has been purged from your chamber. Do not allow water to contact your skin during this time. To eliminate this condition, a temperature management valve can be installed at the outlet of your UV system.
