Connecting the inlet
Installation and connection
Important:
● Use hoses that are suitable for a pressure of at least
14.5 psi (1 bar).
1. Push the inlet nozzle into the inlet.
○ The inlet nozzle is only necessary for a ow rate <
2.642 gal/h (10.000 l/h to ensure unimpaired rotation
of the cleaning rotor.
2. Screw the hose connector with union nut and seal onto
the inlet.
3. Connect the hose with the stepped hose adapter and
secure with a hose clip
Connecting the outlet
1. Screw the stepped hose adapter with union nut
and seal onto the adapter
2. Connect the hose with the stepped hose adapter
and secure with a hose clip
3. Screw the cover cap with at seal onto the outlet.
○ The cover cap has to close the outlet opposite
the inlet so that the main ow of water is
guided along the UVC lamps and is exposed to
the UV radiation for as long as possible
Connect the unit to the ow-through lter
● Take the required distances into consideration. (See Distances to be adhered to)
● Fit a slide valve in the water supply upstream of the inlet of the unit if the unit is to be installed below the water level.
This allows the water supply to be shut off for maintenance work.

Start-up
Attention! Dangerous electrical voltage.
Possible consequences: Death or serious injuries.
Protective measures:
• Prior to reaching into the water, switch off the mains voltage to all units used in the water.
• Switch off the mains voltage prior to carrying out work on the unit.
Note! If the water flow is suddenly interrupted downstream of the outlet (e.g. with a slide valve), this can lead to a
brief increase of pressure of more than 1 bar (water hammer).
Possible consequences: The unit may be damaged.
Protective measures:
• Switching off: First switch off the pump, then close the slide valve. If the unit is operated in a filter system, first take
the filter system out of operation.
• Switching on: First open the slide valve, then switch on the pump. If the unit is operated in a filter system, start up
the filter system last.
• Install the slide valve upstream of the inlet.
When using filter starter, medicines or pond water treatments, leave the UVC clarifying unit switched off for at
least 36 hours so as not to impair their efficacy.
Prerequisite
● Switch the pump on rst, then switch on the UVC clarifying unit.
● Check all connections for leaks.
Switching ON/switching OFF
1. Switching on: Insert the power plug into the socket. The unit switches on immediately
2. Switching off: Disconnect the power plug.
Check the function
● The function display is lit when the UVC lamp is switched on.
● An alternating light/dark blue glow in the inspection window
indicates that the cleaning rotor is rotating.
Setting the bypass
The ow rate is controlled by the bypass. Depending on the setting, part of the water ows from the inlet directly out via the
opposite outlet. The remaining part of the water is irradiated by the UVC light and ows out via the second outlet. Maximum
cleaning capacity is only achieved with an optimum setting.
● Set both rotary handles
to the delivery rate of the
lter pump.

Dismantling the unit head
1. Undo the locking screw in the safety engagement catch.
○ Rotational direction “Lock open” symbol.
2. Press the safety engagement catch, turn the unit head
counterclockwise as far as the stop and carefully pull it
out of the casing.
● Thoroughly clean the inner and outer surfaces of the
casing.
Note!
For safety reasons the UVC lamp can only be switched on when
the unit head has been correctly fitted into the casing.
Maintenance and cleaning
Attention! Dangerous electrical voltage.
Possible consequences: Death or serious injuries.
Protective measures:
• Electrical units and installations with a rated voltage of U > 12 V AC or U >30 V DC located in the water: Isolate the
units and installations (switch off and disconnect from the power supply) before reaching into the water.
• Isolate the unit before starting any work.
• Secure the unit to prevent unintentional switching on.
Attention! Breakable glass.
Possible consequences: Injury to your hands caused by cuts.
Protective measures: Handle the quartz glass and UVC lamp with care.

head.
○ Ensure that the O ring is clean; replace if damaged.
2. Carefully push the unit head with cleaning rotor into the
casing up to the stop while applying light pressure
○ Ensure that the unit head is turned such that the
markings on the unit head and casing are aligned
