INTRODUCTION
We at Aqua Ultraviolet would like to take the time to thank you for purchasing the finest Ultraviolet
System on the market.
For over thirty years, Aqua Ultraviolet has manufactured Ultraviolet Systems used in various industries, in-
cluding aquaculture, public and commercial aquariums, educational institutions, government agencies and
research organizations throughout the world.
Aqua Ultraviolet Sterilizers are used as a control to destroy single celled organisms, water borne bacteria,
viruses, algae, fungi and protozoa. Aqua Ultraviolet sterilizers are recommended for both fresh and salt water
systems as well as ponds, pools, spas, and drinking water. There are no residual effects when using an
Aqua Ultraviolet Sterilizer. Ultraviolet will not affect Bio-filters or lower fish immune systems!
HOW ULTRAVIOLET WORKS
The Ultraviolet Lamp emits a germicidal ray which alters or disrupts the DNA or RNA of single celled organ-
isms such as algae, bacteria and protozoa. By properly implementing an Aqua Ultraviolet System in-line,
these organisms can be eradicated effectively without any harmful residuals.
Your Aqua Ultraviolet System was made to work as a control for green water and single celled organisms.
This unit will not, nor will any other unit, completely sterilize your pond as the pond itself is not a sterile
environment. As a control, this unit will effectively lower your water's bacterial count allowing your fish to stay
healthier with less risk of disease.
The Aqua Ultraviolet Sterilizer works better on filtered water. Any debris in the water can inhibit UV
Transmission.
CAUTION: READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION OR
OPERATION.
The manual should answer most of the questions that you may have about the installation, operation and use
of your new Aqua Ultraviolet Sterilizer. View our installation videos at www.aquauv.com. If you need technical
support, we offer this service for free by telephone [phone], or by fax [phone] M-F
8:00 am - 4:30 pm Pacific Standard time except selected holidays. You may reach us through the web
www.aquauv.com or at [e-mail].

FRESH WATER UV SIZING CHART
* Use the sterilizer column for crystal clear water and bacterial control, in pond and aquarium environments.
*** Use the clarier column when the pond is partially in the shade and has 50% plant coverage. This will
improve water clarity resulting in a natural looking pond.
GPH numbers are based on turning over the volume of water one time every hour to every hour and a half.
UV dosage is calculated at the end of lamp life (14 months).

SALT WATER UV SIZING CHART
Reef Tanks: A UV Rated in the 30,000 to 45,000 columns is ideal for the reef environment. UV’s rated at higher
kill rates will destroy the planktonic food supply for the reef.
Marine Fish Tanks (No reef or Live Rock): A UV rated in the 75,000 to 90,000 columns will be the most
eective at controlling sh disease.
All UV dosages are calculated at the end of lamp life (14 months).

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Where do I install my UV?
The best place to install your Aqua Ultraviolet Sterilizer is after the filter. If an after the filter installation is not feasible,
your sterilizer can be installed before the filter, but it will take a little longer to work. If installed before the filter, be aware that
a small rock passing from the pump can break the quartz sleeve. It is recommended that if you install your unit before
your filter, you check the UV periodically for any water leakage due to a broken quartz sleeve. Be sure to have adequate
pre-filtration to prevent breakage. (A broken quartz sleeve and any damage caused by a broken quartz sleeve
is not covered under warranty.)
Do I have to turn my UV off when I clean my filter?
Yes, but only if the chamber is drained or if the water will remain at a stand still for more than 30 minutes. Note: Running
longer than the recommended time without water flow can cause extensive damage to the unit that is not covered under
warranty.
What should I expect after my UV is installed?
If your Aqua Ultraviolet system is installed after the filter and is properly sized the water should be clear in 3-5 days. If
your Aqua Ultraviolet system is installed before the filter the water should be clear in 7-10 days. The green algae on the
sides and bottom of the pond will not disappear, this is normal in a pond. The UV does not control this type of algae.
What’s the difference between a sterilizer and a clarifier?
As a sterilizer, your Aqua UV system will keep your pond or aquarium water crystal clear, plus you will have the added
benefit of bacterial control which will help keep your fish healthy and happy with less risk of disease. As a clarifier the
algae in your pond will be reduced, your pond will still have a green tint to it, unless you have 50-75% plant coverage or
your pond is in full shade.
Do I install my UV vertically or horizontally?
You can install it either way - (see Installation Instructions Page 13 and 14)
What should my flow rate be on my pond or fresh water aquarium?
The optimum flow rate on your pond or fresh water aquarium is to turn over the volume of water one time every hour to
every hour and a half.
What should my flow rate be on my salt water aquarium?
Your flow rate should be 3 to 5 times the volume of water per hour.
Should I bypass part of my water through the UV and the rest back to the water supply?
No, Our UV’s are specifically designed to handle high flow rates for easier installation and the best water quality.
Is this unit submersible?
No, not this specific series.
Does the UV light have any residual effect to the fish?
UV only affects what passes through the chamber. There is no residual effect from UV light.
Does the UV kill good bacteria?
Ultraviolet light does not discriminate about what it destroys. If good bacteria passes by the light it will be destroyed.
Beneficial bacteria are colonized in your filter and along the sides and bottom of your pond. The only time those will be
affected is if it becomes free floating and passes through the UV.
How often should I change my lamp?
The lamp should be changed after 14 months of continuous use. Use Genuine Aqua UV Lamps or the Warranty is
voided.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: All units are quality tested from the factory. All units are rated up to 50 PSI.
Mount your Aqua Ultraviolet Sterilizer horizontally or vertically on a wall or above ground, on a level and firm
surface. Do not lay the system on the ground or where water may puddle. Your Sterilizer should be easily
accessible. Do not submerge.
On units with the Wiper option remember to allow enough space to pull the Wiper Rod all the way out.
On all units allow space to change the Lamp and Quartz Sleeve.
Horizontal Installation is preferred since the chamber is more likely to remain flooded with water.
8, 15, 25, 40, 57 Watt Units:
On Wiper Option UV’s water should flow into the unit through the opening nearest the end with the wiper ball.
This will help ensure that the chamber stays full and the Wiper Rod will not push out.
80, 120 Watt Units:
Plumb the water going in from the bottom and out through the top. This will help ensure the chamber stays
full of water.
160, 200, 240 Watt Units:
Inlet / Outlet ports should be facing upward.
The above are suggestions, if these are inconvenient, either port can be used as the inlet or the outlet.
In any installation the pump must be of a sufficient power to keep the chamber full of water so the seals
around the wiper nut do not dry out.
Note: If the Wiper Nut Seal is exposed to air or to the lamp it will dry out, crack and leak. This is not
covered under warranty.

The above are suggestions, if these are inconvenient, either port can be used as the inlet or the
outlet. For any installation it is important that the pump ow enough water to keep the UV chamber
full; a partially lled chamber allows the seals to dry out including the wiper nut seal on wiper
models.
Note: If the Wiper Nut Seal is exposed to air or to the lamp it will dry out, crack and leak. This is not
covered under warranty.

Be careful not to drop the lamp down inside the unit, this can break the Quartz Sleeve. The Quartz
Sleeve is not warranted against breakage nor is any damage caused as a result of a broken Quartz
Sleeve. (SEE ILLUSTRATION ON PAGE 31.) In a vertical installation Wiper Units should be installed
with the wiper portion facing downward.

sterilizer to the unions that were provided.
Use only PVC glue and primer.
3. Based on your personal plumbing conguration, additional plumbing supplies may be needed.
LEAK TEST: Do not install the Lamp or electrical components yet. After all connections have been
made, turn on the pump and run for ve minutes to check for leaks.
a. If there are no leaks, turn pump off and continue installing the lamp (on page 17).
For units 8,15, 25, 57 and 114 watt. For 80 watt and 120- 240 watt continue to electrical
installation on page 18.
b. If unit leaks turn pump off and continue to trouble shooting leaks on page 16.
1. You can use mounting brackets (A40124 that can be purchased from us) or plumber’s straps to
attach your unit to a wall or rm surface. Make sure the unit is mounted securely before operating.
CAUTION: Your Aqua Ultraviolet unit is not submersible. If this unit falls into the water, turn main
power off and then retrieve it. Do not attempt to use this sterilizer if it has been submerged. Do
not operate this unit if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is malfunctioning or if it has been
dropped or been damaged in any manner.
2. The UV should be installed after the lter on the return line. This helps ensure that the water is
clear of debris and impurities that could inhibit the disinfection process. The UV can be installed
before the lter, however, it will take longer to work. Note: You increase the risk of breaking
the Quartz Sleeve and Lamp if debris enters the UV unit when installed before your lter.

NOTE: If you touch the Lamp use denatured alcohol and a soft cloth to clean the Lamp. If you
do not clean the Lamp the fingerprints will become etched into the glass which will diminish
UV output and may cause premature lamp failure.
NOTE: Lamps and Quartz Sleeves should be handled with care. Lamps and Quartz Sleeves
are not warranted against breakage or damage.
WARNING: Do not install the Lamp at an angle (even a slight angle); this may cause a U
shaped crack at the end of the Quartz Sleeve, or possible breakage of the Lamp. If this
should happen, do not proceed with the installation. Purchase a new Quartz Sleeve or Lamp
from your dealer and refer to the proper installation instructions.
NOTE: Do not force the Lamp into the Quartz Sleeve.
1. Unscrew the Davis Connector located behind the Transformer
Cap, this allows your Transformer Cap to spin freely.
2. Plug the Lamp flush into the Lamp End Connector before inserting the Lamp into the unit.
If the Lamp is not plugged in all the way it may cause damage to the unit and is not covered
under warranty.
5. Tighten the Davis Connector back on to the
Transformer Cap.
3. Insert the Lamp straight into the Quartz Sleeve. Be careful, inserting the Lamp at an angle, even
a slight angle, can cause a "U" shaped crack in the Quartz Sleeve.
Quartz Sleeves are not warranted against breakage or damage.
4. Twist the Transformer Cap onto the
Quartz Cap. Do not over tighten.
This is a connection only and is not
in contact with water.
