the threaded-cap tightly back into place.
Note: The plug and cord
should be turned together
when screwing the threaded-
cap back into place.
Note: Do not
use O-ring when
larger hose barbs
are being used.
Note: Water will leak if the O-ring is not in place.
Use flexible tubing to connect the sterilizer
to the water supply. Turn the hose lock nut
counter-clockwise to tighten flexible tubing
onto the hose barb. Hose lock nuts require
only hand tightening.

Warning:
Never install a
valve directly
on the tubing
between the
main body and
the aquarium.
Note: Make sure that the tubing is not carrying the weight of the Turbo-Twist UV Sterilizer.
Use the Turbo-Twist brackets to support the unit.
Note: When the Turbo-Twist is turned on, you may
see patterns on the body of the unit. This does not
affect the quality ot the unit.
Connect the tubing between the
water flow outlet and the hose
barb inlet.
It is recommended that a
prefilter be used with the
Turbo-Twist to limit the amount
of debris entering the sterilizer.
Cleaning the quartz sleeve
Be sure to disconnect power outlet and
turn off the pump and let the water drain
out of the Turbo-Twist UV sterilizer
before cleaning.
Turn on water supply to the Turbo-Twist. Once proper water flow has been established,
tilt the unit and let the air bubbles inside the tubing and the main body escape. Examine
the unit and check for any leaks.
Connect the Turbo-Twist to the power supply. Verify that the
UV lamp is working properly indicated by the light blue glow
emitted through the lamp on indicator. The light from the lamp
on indicator will not affect the skin or the eye.

power to the water pump).
Remove the threaded cap to
uncover the lamp socket.
Unplug the UV-C lamp out of the main body.
Pull the UV-C lamp out of the socket
(Be careful not to touch the lamp as it
may be hot).
Make sure that the pins of the lamp plugs
into the socket indicated with a "click".
Reverse steps 5-1 to reassemble the Turbo-Twist.
Please read the instructions in their entirety before
attempting to use this unit.
Never look directly at the unshielded
lamp as the ultraviolet radiation
emitted from the lamp can be harmful.
Do not pull cord to disconnect power.
Cut off the power and stop using if
the unit was submersed or dampened
by water
Cut off the power immediately if water
enters into the Quartz Housing.
Cut off the power if there is a burning
or smoking smell.
Never connect the sterilizer to the
power outlet while hands are wet.
Always leave a drip-loop in the power
cord to prevent water from running
down the length of the
cord and reaching
the power
outlet.
Though the Turbo-Twist is water
resistant, it should never be
intentionally submersed in water.
Always install the sterilizer in a location
where there is little likelihood of flooding
or water dripping directly onto the unit.
The water temperature flowing
through the unit should be below
105
o
F (40
o
C).
Make sure that appropriately sized
hose lock nuts are positioned on
hose barbs before attempting to
connect tubing.
Always disconnect the unit from the
power supply before shutting down
the flow of water to prevent the unit
from overheating.
Only a 120V (60 Hz) electrical
source should be used with the
Turbo-Twist.
