UVB SERIES - SYSTEM ASSEMBLY AND ACTIVATION PROCEDURES
PREPARATION –INSPECT ALL PARTS
NOTE: Read Mounting Bracket and System Plumbing
Installation instructions on Page 1 and all
instructions on this page before installing system.
UVB SERIES
UVB Ultraviolet System
Ultraviolet Lamp #11 (in packing tube)
Quartz Sleeve #11 (in packing tube)
Mounting Screws (2-4 pieces, varies with model)
Installation Manual and Owners Guide
Sump Wrench #10/20
NOTE: See Page 3 for UVB detailed parts breakdown.
Refer to the label affixed to the mounting bracket to
identify filter(s) to be installed with UV module.
INSTALL QUARTZ SLEEVE AND DISINFECT SYSTEM
CAUTION: QUARTZ SLEEVE IS VERY FRAGILE!
For safety, wear a protective glove when
handling quartz sleeve. Do not touch quartz
sleeve or UV lamp with bare hands. Fingerprints
will reduce the effectiveness of the light.
NOTE: All Items refer to Figure 1.
1. Remove Sump (Item 1) from UV Head (Item 5).
NOTE: Do not remove protective plastic bag from quartz
sleeve until so instructed.
2. Remove Quartz Sleeve (Item 17) from packing tube.
While holding middle of quartz sleeve with one hand, slide
protective bag with other hand to expose open end.
3. Place a small amount of silicone based “O”ring lubricant
on the outside of the open end of the quartz sleeve only on
the area that will engage with the “O”ring.
CAUTION: Apply even pressure to push the quartz sleeve
into the UV head. To avoid breakage, make
sure quartz sleeve goes in straight by pushing it
with a slight twisting motion.
4. Insert quartz sleeve into the UV head. As quartz sleeve
passes both “O”Rings (Item 15), resistance will be felt.
Remove protective bag from quartz sleeve.
5. Remove EPCBCarbon Filter (Item 3) and EPCB
Sleeve (Item 24) from sump and set aside.
6. For UVB2 and UVB3 Models only:Remove
Sump (Item 1) from Filter Head (Item 20). Remove
Filters (Items 21 and 23) from sump and set aside.
7. Disinfect the system (Pages 15-16, Steps 1-7).
INSTALL ULTRAVIOLET LIGHT AND FILTERS
1. Remove Sump (Item 1) from UV Head (Item 5).
NOTE: Wipe all fingerprints and excessive lubricant from
quartz sleeve with isopropyl alcohol.
2. Install EPCBSleeve (Item 24) into EPCBCarbon Filter
(Item 3) as shown in Figure 1.
3. Insert filter/sleeve assembly into sump as shown in
Figure 1 with both Filter Gaskets (Item 4) in place.
CAUTION: TIGHTEN SUMPS BY HAND ONLY. Do not use
tools as they will over-tighten and may damage
sump. Take care not to cut or pinch “O”Rings
(Item 2). Use sump wrench for removal only.
4. Being careful not to dislodge quartz sleeve, install sump
with filter/sleeve assembly onto UV head.
5. For UVB2 & UVB3 Models only: Remove
Sump (Item 1) from Filter Head (Item 20). Install
Filters (Items 21 and 23) as shown in Figure 1. Install
sump onto filter head.
CAUTION: DO NOT INSTALL A DAMAGED LAMP
6. Remove UV Control Module (Item 10) from Mounting
Bracket (Item 6, 6A, or 6B) by removing four
Screws (Item 11).
NOTE: Hold UV lamp by ceramic ends only. Do not touch
the glass. Clean with isopropyl alcohol if necessary.
1. Remove UV Lamp (Item 16) from packing tube and
inspect it for damage. If damage is found, contact the
dealer for a replacement.
2. Connect UV lamp into four-pin socket located at the
bottom of UV Control Module (Item 10).
3. Verify Safety Plunger Rod (Item 18) is in place.
NOTE: System with Light-Out Circuit (LOC) does not
have a safety plunger rod.
4. Carefully insert the UV control module with UV lamp
through mounting bracket into the quartz sleeve and
replace screws removed in Step 6.
ACTIVATE SYSTEM
CAUTION: Verify that inlet and outlet ports are connected to
appropriate inlet/outlet pipes (see Figure 1).
1. Plug system into an electrical outlet. If the LED Indicator
(Item 8) does not light up within one minute, verify UV
lamp is securely plugged into UV control module and
safety plunger rod is in place (see Note in Step 9 above).
It is normal for the LED indicator to flicker slightly.
NOTE: The UV lamp should remain on at all times during use
because; repeated starting of UV lamp shortens lamp
life, and UV lamp requires a warm up period of 1-2
minutes.
2. Turn on water supply and check for leaks.
3. Flush system, connectors, and water lines for several
minutes to remove carbon fines.
NOTE: When an ultraviolet water treatment system is unused
for several hours, water within system could become
warm. This is a normal condition. To cool the water,
dispense water from system.
NOTE: System is now ready for use.
Service Requirements Recommended Service Intervals
To ensure the system operates at its optimum level,
certain routine maintenance must be performed.
Frequency of maintenance performance will depend on
source water quality and level of system usage.
CLEAN: Each time filters are replaced.
DISINFECT: At least once a year.
UV Lamp #11: Change Annually
Quartz Sleeve #11: Clean when changing filters. Replace only if
damaged or cannot be cleaned by non-abrasive methods.
Filters: Normal life 4-6 months. Filter life will vary due to water
conditions. A reduced flow rate or deteriorating water quality indicates
that filters must be changed.
