Congratulations
on the purchase of your ultraviolet (UV) water disinfection system! This system uses the most advanced UV technology on the market and is designed to provide you with years of trouble free operation with minimal maintenance required to protect your drinking water from microbiological contaminants.
To ensure ongoing disinfection of your water, UV lamps need to be replaced annually with VIQUA factory-supplied replacements. VIQUA lamps are the result of extensive development resulting in a highly efficient disinfection platform with extremely stable UV output over the entire 18000 hour lifetime. Its success has led to a proliferation of nongenuine copies in the market.
The UV lamp is the heart of the disinfection system, and there should be no compromise when it's time for a replacement.
Why should you insist on genuine factory supplied VIQUA replacement lamps?
• Use of widely available, non-genuine, replacement lamps has been shown to
damage the control module of VIQUA UV disinfection equipment.
• An increasing number of calls to VIQUA Technical Support are connected with non-
genuine lamps being used (unknowingly) as replacements.
• Damage arising from the use of non-genuine lamps poses a safety risk and is not
covered by equipment warranty.
• Unless the UV equipment is equipped with a UV sensor (monitor), it is not possible to
verify the UV (invisible) output of replacement lamps.
• Similar appearance to the original lamp and the presence of (visible) blue light does
not mean equivalent disinfection performance.
• VIQUA replacement lamps undergo rigorous performance testing and strict quality
control processes to ensure that the safety and performance certifications of the original equipment are not compromised.
So, you can see that it's simply not worth the risk! Insist on genuine VIQUA replacement lamps.

1.3 Water Chemistry
Water quality is extremely important for the optimum performance of your UV system. The following levels are recommended for installation:
Water Quality and Minerals
Iron
Hardness*
Turbidity
Manganese
Tannins
UV Transmittance
Level
< 0.3 ppm (0.3 mg/L)
< 7 gpg (120 mg/L)
< 1 NTU
< 0.05 ppm (0.05 mg/L)
< 0.1 ppm (0.1 mg/L)
> 75% (call factory for recommendations on applications where UVT < 75%)
* Where total hardness is less than 7 gpg, the UV unit should operate efficiently provided the quartz sleeve is cleaned periodically. If total hardness exceeds 7 gpg, the water should be softened. If your water chemistry contains levels in excess of those mentioned above, proper pre-treatment is recommended to correct these water problems prior to the installation of your UV disinfection system. These water quality parameters can be tested by your local dealer, or by most private analytical laboratories. Proper pre-treatment is essential for the UV disinfection system to operate as intended.

3.2 Disinfection Procedure
UV disinfection is a physical disinfection process and does not add any potentially harmful chemicals to the water. As UV does not provide a disinfection residual, it is imperative that the entire distribution system located after the UV be chemically disinfected to ensure that the plumbing system is free from any bacteriological contaminants. The disinfection process must be performed immediately after the UV unit is installed and repeated thereafter whenever the UV is shut down for service, without power, or inoperative for any reason. The procedure for sanitizing the plumbing system is readily accomplished as follows:

Specifications
1. In some cases, short-term flows of low ultraviolet transmittance (UVT) water can be created following and during the
regeneration cycle of a water softener, resulting in a sensor alarm. Flushing the UV system alleviates this condition until the softener goes through another regeneration cycle. In the longer term, the softener's settings must be modified. To flush the UV system, unplug the sensor, then open a tap downstream and let water run for two (2) minutes. Disinfect the water lines following the procedures outlined under “Disinfecting The Water Lines” in the Installation section.
2. Refer to Sleeve Cleaning And Lamp Replacement section of the Owner's Manual.
3. Contact your water treatment dealer to inquire about testing the UVT of your water.
