III.WARNING This appliance must be installed directly into a single socket surge protector before being connected to a 240V 10A General Power Outlet (Power Point). It must be a surge protector - Circuit Breakers and Residual Current Devices (RCDs) are not suitable substitutes as they do not protect the unit from power surges.
Page 4: Before You Begin Installation
V. Before You Begin Installation The HPF-UV systems come pre-assembled on the bracket with centre joiners installed. These units are batch tested to ensure there are no leaks. Due to transit, fittings and other components may be loosened or damaged –...
Page 5: Installation With Other Systems
I. Site Preparation The HPFUV System will need to be installed on the water line between the water supply and your house. Ideally if you can find where the cold water enters the building or tees off to the HWS. Either way, you will need access to modify the pipe work to install the system in place.
Page 6: Stainless Steel Enclosure
IV. Installing Connections The HPF-UV system has a standard 1” Female BSP port for the inlet connection into the stage 1 Big Blue filter housing. The outlet point from the UV system has an internal and external thread to choose from depending on the installation requirements (i.e.
Page 7: Pressure Gauge Installation
VI. Pressure Gauge Installation The HPF-UV system is supplied pre-fit with gauges, if the gauges are to be removed or replaced, follow the below. Kit Contains: Opening Spanner, Pressure Gauges (If applicable), Gauge Port Bungs, O-Rings Install with Gauge Plugs: The housings are supplied with a thin o-ring is a zip-lock bag. Install this o-ring into the gauge port then screw in the gauge plugs firmly without thread tape.
Page 8: Ultraviolet System Installation
Ultraviolet System Installation I. Thimble (Quartz Tube) Installation Due to the fragile nature of the thimble, care must be taken when handling and installing the thimble and lamp. The below steps are for horizontal installations. 1. Remove the knurled nuts from either end of the UV chamber (shown below). Knurled Nut 2.
Page 9 4. When the O-rings are seated, firstly loosely install the bottom nut and then the top nut until you feel resistance. Simultaneously tighten (by hand) the top and the bottom nut equally to keep the thimble centred in the chamber. Caution: Do not apply any thread tape, grease, or sealant as this will void the warranty.
Page 10: Uv Lamp Installation
II. UV Lamp Installation Once the chamber has been pressure tested and there are no water leaks, the lamp can be installed. It is usually recommended to complete step 1 to 4 of I. Plumber Commissioning (below) before installing the lamp. 1.

III. Ballast Operation This appliance must be installed directly into a single socket surge protector before being connected to a 240V 10A General Power Outlet (Power Point). It must be a surge protector - Circuit Breakers and Residual Current Devices (RCDs) are not suitable substitutes as they do not protect the unit from power surges.
Page 12  Temporary (7 Day) Alarm Pause/Cancellation: If the UV lamp cannot be immediately replaced, you can temporarily pause the alarm by pressing the “SELECT” button for 5 seconds until the buzzer sound stops. This will reset the Lamp Life Remaining display to 7 days, however, the display will continue to show “A3”...
Page 13: System Start Up & Operation
System Start Up & Operation I. Plumber Commissioning When you are confident that the system is correctly installed, do the following steps to start up the system and commence the flushing procedure. 1. Open a tap downstream from the system to allow air to bleed from the plumbing – if this is not easily achievable disregard, just note that sputtering may occur more prevalently in the house until the air has vented from the lines.

To remove any fragments of glass, hold the system vertically and shake. The fragments will break and drop out from threaded fitting of the chamber.

If the system is too large for the application it is likely that even with frequent water usage the water does not get a chance to cool down effectively.
