Intelligent water disinfection
Alde AquaClear UV-C is a robust and compact water disinfection product for increased safety of
water quality in low pressure applications where water is replenished externally and stored in a tank,
and where the risk of microbiological growth is thus higher.
The disinfection is based on UVC light, through the latest UVC LED technology, and the product
neutralizes about 99% of microorganisms at water ows (up to 4 litres/min).
The pressure drop through the Alde AquaClear can reach 0.9 bar. Alde recommends using a fresh
water pump with a pressure of at least 2 bar.
Ordinary handling of an electrical product. The product works in plus degrees and up to about 50 °C
air temperature, about 40 °C water temperature. The product is intended for a water pressure of 2
bar and can withstand peaks up to 5 bar.
UV-C is dangerous for eyes and skin. Never look into a powered unit.
WARNING
Units containing water must not be exposed to temperatures below freezing. If there is a risk of frost,
drain the unit. There is a glass pane in front of the product’s UVC source, and the glass is at risk of
breaking if water in the unit freezes.
CAUTION
The Alde AquaClear UV-C unit signal cable may only be connected to the Alde Compact
3030/3030 Plus or to the Alde LED panel. Electrical and signal connection to Alde Compact
3010/3020 can damage the unit.
CAUTION
NOTICE
Before cleaning the water system, remove the Alde Water Carbon lter to prevent the cleaning
particles from getting stuck in the lter.
The rst time you ush the tap after replacing the Alde Water Carbon lter, black carbon dust may
be present in the rst litre.

Installation of Alde AquaClear for Alde 3030/3030 Plus:
1. Switch o󰀨 the fresh water pump and drain the water pipes to avoid leakage.
2. Assemble the Alde AquaClear UV-C (g. 1, A) with the Alde Water Carbon lter (g. 1, B).
Please note that Alde Aqua Clear UV-C should be located before the Alde Water Carbon lter in the
ow direction. (See g. 3)
3. Then install the product on the pipe/hose according to the arrow in the direction of water ow,
horizontally or vertically. When placed vertically, the water ow should be able to pump from the
bottom up through Alde AquaClear UV-C to avoid air pockets that impair the ability to clean.
4. Connect the power cable, 12 V-DC, white (+) and brown (-) so that the product receives power when
water is owing, i.e. when the vehicle's fresh water pump is running (gs. 14, 15).
5. The connector with green and yellow wire is connected with the supplied extension cable (g. 1, F). The
cable is then connected to the Ext. Start switch (g. 4) and indicates whether the lter is active on
the control panel during water ow from the water pump.
6. Alde AquaClear UV-C is now ready for use. To activate Alde AquaClear in the control panel, see the
next page.

When testing fresh water in the system of new vehicles in the factory, bypass must be used,
alternatively a pipe bridge instead of Alde AquaClear, to avoid water remaining for a long time and

remains before the UV unit needs to be replaced, see Fig. 8.
5. During active water ow from the fresh water pump, the symbol for Alde AquaClear UV-C will appear
on the upper part of the control panel to indicate that Alde AquaClear UV-C is working correctly.
(Fig. 9). If the symbol is not visible during active water ow, something may be wrong, contact
your dealer or service partner.
A calculator for hours counts down the time when the UV lamp has been active. Once the UV lamp
has served its time, a warning will appear on the screen (Fig. 10). Then replace the Alde AquaClear
and reset the counter by entering AquaClear UV-C in Settings and pressing "Reset" (g. 11).

5. The contact with green and yellow wire is connected to Alde LED status panel (g. 2, F).
When the LED panel is lit, it indicates that the lter is active at ow from the water pump.
If the LED status panel light does not illuminate during active water ow, something may be
wrong, contact your dealer.

1. Connect the white cable from the AquaClear to the 12 V positive cable on the water pump.
Note! If the installation has a water pump as shown in g. 15, make sure there is a connection
between the pressure switch and the pump motor. Cut the cable in a suitable place and place out a
terminal block, then position the pump cables and the white cable from the AquaClear in the terminal
block and tighten the screws again.
2. Connect the brown cable from the AquaClear to the 12 V negative cable on the water pump. Open
the terminal block, position the brown cable from the AquaClear and tighten the screws again.
Connect the WHITE cable (+) on the ALDE AquaClear to 12 V positive and the BROWN cable (-) to
12 V negative.

Action in the event of rapid cycling
Limitations in a system may lead to rapid pump cycling (starts and stops within 2 seconds, recur-
ring). Pump cycling should be minimised to prevent pulsating ows and avoid unnecessary wear.
To see if adjustment is necessary, open the water tap to a constant ow. The pump should run
continuously when the tap is open. If the water pump switches on and o󰀨 (at intervals of no more
than 2 seconds), adjust the pump pressure sensor. Pump pressure is usually adjusted by means
of a screw on the top of the pump housing (Fig 15). Turn clockwise to increase the pressure, anti-
clockwise to decrease the pressure.
