manufactured prior to Jan. 1, 1999

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. Insert one UV lamp into each open quartz sleeve and push it about

2”-3” (51-76mm) out beyond the left compression nut, so as to be

able to hold the lamp with your right hand.

5. Unscrew and pull back the retainer cap from the rubber lamp socket.

6. Insert the lamp base into the rubber socket. Push until you feel a

firm “bottomed out” connection.

7. Carefully slide the rubber boot portion of the lamp socket over the

end of the lamp. CAUTION: DO NOT INSERT UV LAMPS

WITH OPPOSING RETAINER CAP IN PLACE. Verify no

portion of the rubber boot has folded under during this process.

8. Screw the slotted retainer cap clockwise onto the compression

nut, making sure the number on the socket lead wire and the

end plate correspond.

9. Connect the right side rubber lamp sockets and spring-loaded lamp

socket retainer assemblies onto each lamp. Pay special attention to

match the numbers on the retainer assemblies with the numbers

beside each steel nipple on the end plate.

10. Carefully pull out each rubber lamp socket from each spring-loaded

socket retainer assembly.

11. With one hand, push the rubber socket boot onto the end of each

ultraviolet lamp. When properly attached, a slight “snap” can be

felt, which indicates a proper connection.

12. Carefully slide each lamp socket retainer assembly up and over the

rubber lamp socket boot, until the retainer assembly reaches the

male-threaded portion of the compression nut.

13. Then, turn clockwise until the socket retainer cap bottoms out

against the compression nut. Avoid overtightening.
