Prerequisite:

• Only use UVC lamps, the identification and power data of which correspond to the information
on the type plate. (→ Technical data)
How to proceed:
• Removal: Turn the bayonet ring all the way to the "lock open" position to remove the holding
plate and the UVC lamp.
• Installation: Turn the bayonet ring all the way to the "lock closed" position. Otherwise you
cannot install the UVC unit head.
– On delivery, the bulb of the UVC lamp is protected by a transport guard. The lamp guard is
not required for the lamp function and does not need to be reinstalled.
If necessary remove a lamp guard stuck in the quartz glass as follows:
− Remove the quartz glass. (→ Cleaning/replacing the quartz glass)
− Carefully and steadily knock the rotor lid with the quartz glass against a firm surface. The
lamp guard will slowly slide out of the quartz glass.
OSRAM UVC lamps can only be installed without the holding plate. OASE therefore recom-
mends using Philips UVC lamps.
