Sea Recovery Ultra Whisper Rev. A
UV LIGHT INSTALLATION
The SP Series UV unit is shipped with the UV lamp, quartz sleeve, fittings, and O-rings and need to be assembled before
the UV unit can be used.
1.
Install the UV unit in a sheltered, well ventilated area.
2.
Install the UV unit as close as possible to the point-of-use to avoid potential contamination discharge from pipes,
fittings, etc.
3.
The UV unit should be mounted on stable support to avoid straining or warping. Allow sufficient clearance around the
unit for servicing.
4.
Verify the location is free from vibration.
5.
All UV units are rated for maximum operating pressure at 50psig (8.24 bar).
6.
The UV unit must be properly grounded for safe and proper operation. Failure to properly ground the UV unit
automatically voids all unit warranty.
7.
Line voltage must be within 10.56V to 16.50V. Voltage outside the range will compromise the performance of the UV
unit.
Plumbing Requirements
All piping, tubes and hoses leading to the UV unit connection points must be leak-free before the UV unit can be installed.
NOTE! The UV unit may be installed horizontally or vertically. For vertical installation, make sure
the inlet port is positioned at the bottom.
Installation Procedure
NOTE! Do not assemble or install damaged parts. Quartz sleeve and UV lamp are fragile and must
be handled with care.
Install Fittings
Perform this procedure to prepare the UV unit for installation.
1.
Inspect each port and fitting to ensure threads are free of dirt, burrs, and excessive nicks. If threads are badly nicked,
replace the fitting.
2.
Wrap ¼" wide PTFE tape 2 to 3 turns counter-clockwise around the male threads of the ¼" fitting. Do not wrap tape
around the first thread.
3.
Screw the fitting into cylinder ports to finger tight position to achieve desired alignment.
4.
Do not back-off fitting. Do not over-tighten fitting. Over-tightening could strip the fitting threads and cause leak.
Install Quartz Sleeve
Perform this procedure only when water piping for UV unit is in place and ready for service.
1.
Visually inspect quartz sleeve for cracks and damages.
2.
Remove the four screws holding the ballast box cover and remove the cover.
