single-ended lamp design for units

manufactured after January 1, 1999

Once it has been verified that there are no leaks in the system, the UV

lamps are ready for installation.

1. Remove all power to the UV unit.

2. Depressurize the system.

3. Wear clean cotton gloves to prevent contamination of the UV lamps.

4. Carefully remove each UV lamp from the factory packaging.

Handle these with care as they are fragile.

5. Visually inspect all lamps for cracks or damage.

Do not install damaged lamps.

6. Using both hands, slowly insert the lamp into the quartz sleeve

by pushing one end of the lamp with one hand, while continu-

ing to support the lamp in a level, horizontal position with the

other hand. This is very important. If not installed properly, lamp or

quartz breakage will occur.

7. Twist the lamp into the locking mechanism of the compression nut.

This ensures the lamp is secure within the chamber.

8. Each lamp socket is identified with a number that corresponds to

each lamp position marked on the end plate. Match the lamp socket

and connect to the appropriate lamp.

9. The two pins in the lamp must be pushed down to fit securely into

the pins with the connector.

10. Rotate and screw the lamp socket cap into place. Only hand

tightening is required. Do not overtighten!

11. Repeat the procedure above for the second endplate for the

non-pin lamp ends. Instead of securing the lamp socket lead

assembly to this end of the assembly you will twist on and firmly

secure the fixed Compression Nut Cap to the compression nut

assembled on the quartz sleeve.
