• Lamps must be replaced after 12 months of operation to ensure proper

disinfection of your water
• Clean Quartz sleeve frequently for optimum performance
A minimum 5 m nominal pre-filter is required upstream (before) the UV system
installation point. As UV system efficiencies are dictated by penetration of the UV
light through the water column, particulate matter within the water column could
decrease the disinfection capacity, and potentially create a harmful condition
(filtration systems sold separately)
For added protection, it is recommended that a 1m absolute filter be installed
for cyst reduction prior to treatment by the UV system (filtration systems sold
separately).

requirements of the influent water supply prior to UV treatment:
Iron
Total iron count must be less than 0.3 ppm (0.3 mg/L)
Turbidity
Count must be less than 1 NTU
Tannins
Count must be less than 0.1 ppm (0.1 mg/L)
Manganese
Count must be less than 0.05 ppm (0.05mg/L)
Hardness
Count must be less than 120 ppm (7 grains per gallon)
%UVT
Must be greater than 75%
(transmittance)
If you are using untreated surface water or untreated groundwater as your source of
supply, the suitability of the water supply for potable applications must be confirmed
by the provincial / state and/or local health agency that has jurisdiction.
If the test results indicate that: (1) any of the above contaminant levels are being
exceeded, or (2) any prevailing drinking water health standards are not being met,
additional pre-treatment options must be installed that will eliminate all contaminants
posing health risks. Non-municipal water should be tested on an ongoing basis to
ensure treatment efficiency.
