QUARTZ TUBE MAINTENANCE
FIRST STEP IN
STARTING YOUR
INSTALLATION
Inspect the Ultra UV2 unit for damage, paying close
attention to the quartz tube. If the quartz tube is broken/
cracked contact the manufacturer for replacement.
NOTICE
Cleaning the quartz tube: The quartz tube requires cleaning
every 6 months to ensure optimum performance.
1. Turn off all power to the ULTRA UV2 unit and all
other pool equipment. Unplug the unit from its
power receptacle or turn OFF the circuit breaker
that is the ULTRA UV2’s power source. Before
proceeding to step 2 allow at least 15 minutes for
the lamp(s) in the unit to cool.
Never remove the
electrical enclosure
cover without first
disconnecting the power (power source) for the Ultra
UV2 unit. Never remove the Ultra UV2 unit’s cover
without turning off the pump.
DANGER
2. Remove the three screws that secure the plastic
cover then remove Fig. 1.
Before removing
lamps you must wear
protective rubber
gloves and safety eye wear. Do not handle a hot lamp
or serious burns will occur.
WARNING
Do not touch the
glass part of the
lamp as body oils will
create hot spots & greatly shorten lamp life.
NOTICE
3. Disconnect all lamps by pressing the release tabs
on connectors and gently pulling apart. Fig. 8
4. Remove the spring clip Fig. 9. Carefully lift the old
lamp assembly, including lamp holder, from the
quartz tube Fig. 10. Do not pull excessively on the
lamp wires. Set aside the lamp assembly in a safe
area to avoid breaking or chipping.
5. Turning counter-clockwise, unscrew and remove
the round aluminum sealing nut. Fig. 11

7. Grip quartz tube with both thumbs inside and pull
up. Once the O-ring breaks free, the quartz tube
should lift out easily. Fig. 13
The quartz tube
is fragile, be sure
to handle it with
proper care and do not set it down on a hard
surface. Do not use abrasive cleaners or pads.
NOTICE
8. Using protective rubber gloves and eye wear use shower/
tub cleaner, CLR or equivalent, or a solution of white vinegar
and water to clean the outside of the quartz tube. Remove
the O-ring from the quartz tube. Fig. 14. If the inside of
the quartz tube is moist or needs cleaning use the same
cleaning method. The quartz tube must be completely dried
and clear of residue before reassembly.
9. Inspect the quartz tube carefully for any cracks or
chips and replace the quartz tube if any are found.
Do not use any
other O-ring
at any time for
sealing the quartz tube. Doing so can result in
a leak and possible damage to your UV unit.
The O-ring must be replaced after cleaning the
quartz tube 005-422-5103-00.
NOTICE
10. All components must be completely dry and
clean. Never use any type of lube or sealing
agent. To reinstall the quartz tube place a new
O-ring 2 inches from the top of the outside of the
quartz tube Fig. 14. Gently lower the quartz tube into
the unit until the O-ring makes contact with the top of
the black threaded sealing sleeve. Fig. 15
Note: Use a Paramount O-ring seal only.
11. Then place the aluminum compression washer and
gasket on the quartz tube. Press down on the aluminum
compression washer with an even steady pressure.
Fig. 16 This will roll the O-ring into the area between
the inside of the black threaded sleeve and the quartz
tube. Lift aluminum washer and check to make sure it is
seated evenly around the circumference of the quartz
tube. Replace aluminum washer then screw on the quartz
sealing aluminum nut to hand tight plus ½ turn.
12. Turn power on to the Ultra UV2 unit. Turn pump on to
check for leaks. Confirm that there are no leaks then
turn off pump and power off to the unit. Reinstall
lamps, spring clip and connect to ballast(s). Reattach
cover and turn power on to unit and turn pump on.
CAUTION
Do not stand over the
unit when it is under
pressure or when the
pump is on.
