BLUE LAGOON SALT WATER UV-C
Please read through these instructions for use
carefully before installing this device.
OPERATION
The Blue Lagoon Saltwater UV-C is specially designed for saltwater (salt chlorinated) swimming
pools. In the Blue Lagoon Saltwater UV-C, a UV-C radiation with a wavelength of 253.7 nm is
generated by the special UV-C lamp, ensuring a lethal effect on bacteria, viruses and moulds
(including Legionella bacteria and Cryptosporidium). The Blue Lagoon Saltwater UV-C will ensure
that your pool water is clean, fresh and clear in an efficient and environmentally-friendly manner.
The water is led through the UV-C device via a pump. The UV-C radiation neutralizes bacteria,
viruses and other microorganisms and stops them from multiplying. The Blue Lagoon Saltwater
UV-C has a built-in electronic ballast. This ballast ensures optimum performance of the lamp. Thanks
to the Blue Lagoon Saltwater UV-C, your swimming pool water will be disinfected efficiently and
safely, and the quality of your water will remain excellent.
ATTENTION!
Your pool requires less chlorine because this UV-C device disinfects the pool water during the
passage of the UV-C lamp. Your salt chlorinator device can therefore produce less chlorine than
when there is no UV-C device installed to the pool. By bringing down the salt level in your pool
your salt chlorinator device will produce less chlorine. The advantage is that the water will taste less
salty and the effects of combined chlorine like irritation to eyes, skin and the respiratory tract are
significantly reduced. Always check what the minimum salt content for your salt electrolysis device
may be before you reduce the salt level in your pool. Inform your supplier if necessary. At a too low
salt level your salt chlorinator device or the electrode may malfunction. On average, the minimum
salt content is 3 kilo per 1.000 litters of pool water.
CAUTION:
Carefully read these instructions before installing this device.
Always make sure to have a correct
grounding. When in doubt about the
grounding of the electrotechnical
installation in general, always consult a
licensed electrotechnical mechanic.
Radiation of this ultraviolet lamp is
dangerous for eyes and skin.
The quartz glass and the UV-C lamp will
stay warm for quite some time after the
device has been switched off. It has a
cooling time of at least 15 minutes.
The UV-C lamp should never be
turned on when there's no flow.
UV-C and Pool equipment
It's not permitted to flow a liquid through
the reactor or to add additions to the
water that has to be treated, which can
have a negative effect on corrosion
or degradation on the used materials.
This to avoid dangerous situations or
damage to the reactor and surrounding
installations and/or to the flora and fauna.
Always free the device of tension
first during maintenance! Risk of an
electric shock. Connect only to a
grounding type receptacle protected
by a ground- fault circuit-interrupter
(GFCI). Do not use an extension cord.
Wear gloves to protect the quartz glass
and UV-C lamp against fingerprints.
Fingerprints can burn into the quartz
glass and UV-C lamp while turned on,
causing reduction of the disinfection.
Wear safety glasses during
maintenance and installation.
