8.4 Lamp replacement
Because UV lamps age slowly as a result of use, with the result that the amount of UV energy produced
decreases (the visible light remains practically the same), the dosage in the water to be treated decreases
and must be replaced periodically. A UV lamp must also be replaced if it has defects or is defective.
1.
Switch off the UV system and lock the main switch;
2.
Wait at least 15 minutes until the UV lamp has cooled down sufficiently;
3.
Disconnect the lamp by turning it counter clockwise and gently
pulling it out of the irradiation chamber;
4.
Remove the O-ring (3) on the socket (4);
5.
Place the new O-ring (3) (supplied with the lamp) in the socket (4);
6.
Remove the new UV lamp from the packaging, note: the UV lamp
is very fragile;
7.
Place the new UV lamp (1) in the socket (4) (see chapter 'Lamp
installation' for correct positioning). And turn it clockwise until the
arrow is at the height of the lock (drawing 12);
8.
Store the old UV lamp in the packaging of the new UV lamp;
9.
Remove the lock on the main switch and switch on the UV system in
accordance with the conditions described in the chapter 'Water in the
system';
10. Check if the lamp (1) is on (drawing 23a);
11. Dispose of the old one in compliance with local rules and laws. See also
chapter 'UV lamp disposal'.
