Chloramines in swimming pool water, for instance, are reliably degraded as part of the photo- chemical treatment process. Dulcodes R UV systems feature a manual wiper for the purpose of cleaning the protective tubes for the UV lamps. Dulcodes UV systems are turnkey systems ready for connection.
Safety / Function IMPORTANT! Take note of the technical datasheet supplied with the respective UV system! Observe the supplementary instructions for special applications, in which the sensor signal is displayed in %! Safety Devices Label on radiation chamber CAUTION! Dangerous ultraviolet radiation o UV-C radiation is harmful to the eyes and skin! Place the UV lamps into operation only in UV-C their installed state! Install the UV system in accordance with regulations and instructions...
Function / Control The shut-off valve opens after start-up flushing. The UV system assumes normal operation. Normal operation The UV-C sensor still monitors the UV-C output during normal operation: UV-C output drops below the warning threshold: A warning is triggered. UV-C output drops below the safety threshold: The shut-off valve closes and the flushing valve opens.
Control Function Keys START/STOP To switch the UV system ON and OFF CHANGE In operating mode: Change display window In programming mode: Change adjustable parameters BACK Move one level back in menu DOWN In programming mode: Decrease an indicated numerical value Change a data item In programming mode: Increase an indicated numerical value...

Control Programming instructions (Adjustable values/ Memory display (Enable code query) settings flash) 1 sec Changes are not stored Changes are stored Incorrect enable code Return to display window IMPORTANT! Once the enable code has been entered correctly, it is no longer necessary to re-enter the code during further programming procedures.
Control 4.3.2 Changing Enable Code To prevent unauthorised changes to the settings, the system control has an enable code for programming mode. This code can be freely selected by the operator. Programming mode is still disabled after changing the enable code. The disable is cancelled only after entering the new enable code.
Control 4.3.5 Setting UV Lamp Current Lamp current = 3.5 A (min. 3.0 A) (max. 3.5 A) The lamp current can be freely selected within a defined range in connection with ballasts that feature a bus interface. This adjustment makes it possible to adapt the UV lamps to specific operating conditions.
Control 4.3.7 Sensor Calibration 100 W/m Cal. factor = 1.000 Time 5:00 The UV-C sensor is calibrated at the factory and does not need recalibration. 4.3.8 Setting Trend Display Range Display range Trend display 100 day(s) The recording time of the sensor signal for the trend display can be adjusted. The value (in days) is interpreted as a time window and therefore guarantees a continuous display: After the selected time has elapsed, the oldest value is deleted and the new value displayed.
Control 4.3.10 Setting Warning Threshold 55.0 W/m Warning threshold A warning is triggered if the UV-C output decreases to such an extent that the sensor signal drops below the warning threshold. The lamp protection tubes should be cleaned or the lamps replaced or the water quality improved by suitable preparation in order to avoid the signal dropping below the safety threshold.
Control 4.3.12 Activating Pump Control Pump control The pump control must be activated in order to drive a delivery pump with the pump relay. The pump relay is in dropped-out state when the system is switched off and remains in dropped-out state with the pump control “OFF”...
Control 4.3.14 Setting Maximum Clear Flushing Time Maximum clear flushing time 00:01 h:min Clear flushing is mainly used for drinking water disinfection where maximum clear flushing times of more than 10 hours are often implemented. The shut-off valve will close and the flushing valve open if, for example, the UV transmission in ground water or spring water deteriorates after heavy rainfall to such an extent that the UV-C sensor signal drops below the safety threshold.
Control 4.3.17 Setting Minimum Mains Voltage Minimum mains voltage 180 V Monitoring the mains voltage prevents uncontrolled failure of the UV system and of the lamps due to excessively low mains voltage. If the mains voltage drops below the minimum value, the control assumes the undervoltage state and shuts down the system.

Assembly and Installation Please take note of the following safety information prior to installation: WARNING! Make sure that • the maximum permissible water flow rate is not exceeded and • the UV transmission does not drop below the minimum permissible levels otherwise adequate treatment will no longer be guaranteed! The maximum permissible water flow rate is defined in the supplied datasheet.
Assembly and Installation 5.1.3 Affixing Warning Sign IMPORTANT! Affix the supplied self-adhesive warning sign such that it is clearly visible on the radiation chamber. 5.1.4 Hydraulic Connections ATTENTION! • Make the hydraulic connection of the radiation chamber in accordance with valid general guidelines as well as the locally applicable installation regulations.
Assembly and Installation • Connect a PE conductor to the radiation chamber and to the chamber cover! • Secure the power supply by means of a suitable residual current-operated circuit breaker! • Only an authorised electrician is permitted to open the control cabinet! •...

Assembly and Installation ➤ Slacken off the clamping screw a little (approx. 1/4 turn in counterclockwise direction) ➤ Release the fixing bush out of the lock of the clamping screw ➤ Pull the wiper rod as far as it will go – it must remain against the stop until it is inserted again! ➤...
Assembly and Installation ➤ Check to ensure that the O-ring on the retaining fixture for the lamp protective tube is fitted in the groove provided for this purpose – the sealing surfaces of the O-ring must be completely smooth and clean! ATTENTION! When fitting the UV lamps, turn them such that the two connected cables face away from the UV sensor!
Calibrating UV-C Sensor The UV-C sensor is calibrated at the factory and does not need recalibration. If recalibration is required, please send the system in to ProMinent. IMPORTANT! Observe the supplementary instructions for special applications, in which the sensor signal is displayed in %.
Maintenance Maintenance Maintenance of the UV system is restricted to cleaning the lamp protective tubes and the sensor window replacing the wiper elements and O-ring of the clamping screw as well as to replacing the UV lamps at the end of their maximum permissible useful life. In the case of systems that have a fan installed in the control cabinet, the filter mats of the fan and the air outlet filter in the control cabinet should be replaced at regular intervals (normally once a year).
Maintenance 7.1.1 Cleaning with Manual Wiper CAUTION! • Firmly hold the knob after releasing the fixing bush! The water pressure in the radiation chamber presses the wiper rod with a certain force in the direction of the system operator! • Take particular care during this work to ensure that the extended wiper rod is not bent! 1 Knob 2 Guide pin 3 Fixing bush...
Maintenance 7.1.2 Cleaning After Removing the Lamp Protective Tubes WARNING! • Switch off the master switch or disconnect the power plug before installation and connecting the UV lamps! • Place the UV lamps into operation only in their installed state!
