Section 1.1 WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS

WARNINGS

• Read this manual in its entirety before operating the Ultraviolet Disinfection System.

• Misuse, improper operation, and/or improper monitoring of this system could result in serious injury, death, or other serious reactions to the end users of the equipment.

• Routine maintenance of the system is required to protect the system from over-pressurizing and over-temperature which could result in damage to the facility, injury to staff, or the end users of the equipment.

CAUTIONS

• When used as a medical device, Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the authority of a physician. Per CFR 801.109 (b)(1).

• All local, state, and federal regulations regarding the installation and operation of this system must be observed.




Section 1.2 THEORY OF OPERATION

The Ultra-Violet Light System consists of a UV lamp housed inside a fused quartz sleeve which seals the lamp from direct water contact. The sleeve, in turn, is housed in a stainless steel treatment chamber. The UV rays pass through the quartz sleeve and into the surrounding water. This UV ray destroys most strains of bacteria. The low-pressure germicidal UV lamp produces a slightly shorter UV ray in concentrated form. 90% of the energy produced by this lamp has a wavelength of 254 nanometers, which is lethal to many waterborne microorganisms. Use of this component is based on customer preference.

The light utilize a wall mounted power supply with indicator lights showing the light status. They are also equipped with an intensity meter, which monitors the intensity based on start-up of the unit with new bulbs and sleeves.

98% of all bacteria strains are destroyed at an intensity of less than 22,000 µW sec/cm2. Therefore the manufacturer rates bacteria destruction of 98-99% effectiveness.




Section 1.3 SYSTEM COMPONENTS

Power Supply:

Powers and controls the UV lamp and other devices. Provides human interface, displaying information and allowing control inputs (such as muting the audible alarm).

Intensity Sensor:

Mounted through the stainless steel housing, it monitors UV output to ensure proper dose (UV exposure) is being provided. Connected to the power supply it also shows the functioning status. Unique test function allows verification of sensor operation.

Section 3.1 INSTALLATION

The UV can be mounted vertically, preferred, or horizontally. If you are in a situation where the UV cannot mount vertically be sure to leave room to remove the lamp for service and replacement.

Pre-UV filtration can be accomplished by using a big blue or multi-cartridge filter housing assembly. Although a multi-cartridge filter house will allow for more contact time, for limited space a Big Blue can be used and is just as effective. Both housings are equipped with a 3-way bypass assembly.

2 Contact Technical Support for a test of the ultraviolet transmittance (UVT) of the water.




Section 4.2 ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

Routine inspection of the system is recommended. Follow all facility procedures regarding regular inspection of electrical equipment.

System should be inspected as follows:

1. Inspect plug for frayed wires. Repair and replace as needed.

2. Inspect and clean fan vents on side of UV housing (Pro Series Only).

3. Ensure adequate ventilation.
