The UVC water clari er is generally installed at the water outlet of the pump. Hence when the ap-
pliance is tted in an aquarium, it is usually positioned
after water has owed through the lter, and in the pond before water has owed through the
lter. For this reason, newly established aquariums or ponds should be allowed to run for 4 - 8
weeks without a UVC water clari er, in order to allow su cient cleansing bacteria to settle in the
lter. An inoculation of the lter material with JBL FilterStart or JBL Filterstart Pond stimulates
the rapid biological activity and reduces the activation period.
Note on safety and operation check:
For your own safety, a safety switch is tted in the electrical unit (2), which only allows the UVC
lamp to operate when the casing is closed. Never attempt to check the operation of the lamp by
switching the safety switch with the electrical unit open. This may result in damage to the eyes
and skin. You can check the bulb's function by looking at the blue LED indicator (2 a).
Unpacking and setting up
Carefully remove the JBL ProCristal Compact UV-C Water Clari er from the packaging, remove
the transport protection and check that the contents are complete.
In the event that anything is missing or damaged, please contact your specialist retailer.
Check that the voltage stated on the type plate of the electrical unit (2) corresponds to the volt-
age available.
Saw o the enclosed stepped hose tails (6 and 7) to the required diameter. Grease them and the
at seals (8) with some commercially available petroleum jelly (Vaseline). Mount the hose tails
together with the at seals. Tighten the union nuts only by hand. Don't use any tools.
Mounting the separately enclosed elbow at the inlet or outlet enables you to lay the hoses paral-
lel to each other, which can be an advantage inside aquarium cabinets.
Note: Alternatively to hoses, you also can use commercially available PVC ttings (1 ") with rigid
piping which can be connected to the threaded connection of the device.
Putting the JBL PROCRISTAL UV-C Water Clari er in place
Now you can place the UVC water clari er at its intended installation position. Install the lower
part of the holder (1) with the 4 enclosed screws (1 b) at the intended place. Position the appli-
ance on the lower part and x it by attaching the upper part (1 a) of the holder. The threaded
connection of the appliance can be installed either to the left or the right hand side of the holder.
The JBL PROCRISTAL UV-C Water Clari ers can be operated both in a vertical and a horizontal posi-
tion. The water inlet needs to be at the lateral connection piece (arrow marker).
