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.

- English -

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.

Fitting the unit head

1. Position the O ring in front of the recess at the unit

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

3. Turn the unit head up to the stop.

○ Ensure that the safety engagement catch engages.

4. Close the locking screw in the safety engagement

catch.

○ Rotational direction “Lock closed” symbol.

○ Clean the cleaning rotor with a brush under

running water.

○ Wipe the quartz glass with a damp cloth.

○ Replace the quartz glass if it is damaged or very

scratched. (See Replacing the UVC lamp)

2. Clean the inner and outer surfaces of the casing and

inspection window.

3. Check the profile wear at both ends and the inner

surfaces of the cleaning rotor.

○ If the profile is worn, the cleaning rotor will rotate

sluggishly and has to be replaced.

4. Push the cleaning rotor onto the quartz glass.

○ Ensure that it is correctly positioned.

5. Fit the unit head. (See Fitting the unit head)

- English -

Maintenance and cleaning

1. Remove the cleaning rotor.

2. Unscrew the clamping screw counter-clockwise

3. Remove the quartz glass including the O ring towards

the front with a slight turning movement.

4. Pull out the UVC lamp and replace.

5. Carefully push the quartz glass including the O ring

into the unit head up to the stop, t the clamping screw

and tighten up to the stop by turning clockwise.

○ Clean the O ring, replace if damaged.

○ Ensure that the O ring is located in the gap between

the unit head and the quartz glass.

6. Push the cleaning rotor onto the quartz glass.

○ Ensure that it is correctly positioned.

7. Fit the unit head. (See Fitting the unit head)

Replacing the UVC lamp

Replace the UVC lamp after max. 8,000 operating hours (this corresponds to approx. one pond season with continuous

operation). This ensures optimum ltering performance.

● Only use UVC lamps whose identication and capacity data correspond to the information on the type plate.
