  • Page 1 Owner’s Manual Models : PUV -7 PUV -14 The Pentair PUV-7 and PUV-14 UV systems are designed to provide you with years of trouble-free operation with minimal maintenance required. KEY INFORMATION YOU SHOULD KNOW: • A 5-micron (nominal) sediment filter must be installed upstream of (before) any UV system.
  • Page 2 • Pentair 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 Pentair replacement lamps.
  • Page 3: Safety Information

    Safety Information Section 1 Safety Information These are the original instructions. Please read this entire manual before operating this equipment. Pay attention to all danger, warning, and caution statements in this manual. Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury or damage to the equipment.
  • Page 4: Water Chemistry

    Safety Information WA R N I N G • During extended periods of no water flow, the water in your chamber can become very hot (Approx. 60 °C) and potentially lead to scalding. It is recommended to run your water until this hot water has been purged from your chamber. Do not allow water to contact your skin during this time. To eliminate this condition, a temperature management valve can be installed at the outlet of your UV system.

    Installation Section 3 Installation 3.1 UV Disinfection System C A U T I O N Electronic controller must be connected to a Ground Fault Protected Circuit (GFCI) receptacle and the lamp connector ground wire connected to the stainless steel chamber. The disinfection system is designed to be mounted either horizontally or vertically at the point-of-use or point-of-entry depending on the specific flow rate of the unit.
  • Page 7 Note: DO NOT solder connections while attached to the system as this could damage the O-ring seals. Flow Figure 4 Flow 4. Mount the Pentair PUV Power Supply horizontally to the wall, near the chamber. Ideally place the Power Supply above the chamber and away from any water connection point.

    5. Install the UV lamp. Refer to Section 4.1. 6. When all plumbing connections are complete, slowly turn on the water supply and check for leaks. The most likely cause of leaks is from the O-ring seal. In case of a leak, shut water off, drain cell, remove the retaining nut, wipe the O- ring and threads.

    Maintenance Section 4 Maintenance WA R N I N G • Always disconnect power before performing any work on the disinfection system. • Always shut off water flow and release water pressure before servicing. • Regularly inspect your disinfection system to ensure that the power indicators are on and no alarms are present. •...
  • Page 11 Maintenance 4.2 Cleaning and Replacing the Sleeve Note: Minerals in the water slowly form a coating on the lamp sleeve. This coating must be removed because it reduces the amount of UV light reaching the water, thereby reducing disinfection performance. If the sleeve cannot be cleaned, it must be replaced.
  • Page 12: Operation

    Operation 4.3 Cleaning and Replacing UV Sensor (if applicable) WA R N I N G The UV sensor is very delicate instrument. Extreme care is required when handling and cleaning. The sensor window itself is constructed from quartz which is extremely fragile, be careful you do not chip or break this quartz window. Manufacturer’s warranty does not cover damage due to neglect or misuse.
  • Page 13 Operation 5.1.1 Lamp Life Remaining (days) The controller tracks the number of days of operation of the lamp and the controller. The default screen will display the total lamp life remaining (in days). The controller will count down the number of days remaining until the lamp requires changing (365 days to 1 day).
  • Page 14 Refer to Section 5.1.5 for explanation of this feature. Note: On the Pentair systems, the audible tone provided for lamp failure is a continuous alarm, rather than the intermittent (1 second on, 1 second off) condition on the basic Pentair systems.
  • Page 15 Operation 5.2.5 Solenoid Output (Optional) Working in conjunction with the UV intensity monitor, the VIQUA controller provides a powered (line voltage) IEC solenoid output connector. (Note: this is not a dry contact) This solenoid output is protected with a replaceable 2 amp isolated fuse. Connection from this output to the solenoid can be done using the IEC solenoid power cable PN 260135.
