PURA® products are lightweight, easy a specific spectrum of ultraviolet light: viruses, bacteria, to use, and simple to maintain. PURA products will provide fungi, algae, and protozoa. you with healthy, clean drinking water for years to come.
Safety Instructions WARNING: To guard against injury, basic safety precautions should be observed, including the following: Read and follow all safety instructions. CAUTION - Always disconnect power before servicing. DANGER - To avoid possible electric shock, special care should be taken since water is present near electrical equip- ment.
UV Lamp Replacement: Lamps must be changed every twelve months. While UV lamps rarely burn out, they do lose their disinfection power. Use only PURA UV lamps as they are specifically designed for the PURA system to deliver high quality drinking water.

Correct Installation Incorrect Installation IMPORTANT: For vertical installation, the inlet is at the bottom and the outlet is near the top of the disinfection chamber. For horizontal installation, pay careful attention to the diagram for flow direction. Mount the system to the wall using the supplied clamps. Various connection methods can be used to connect the water source to the system, however union type connectors are recommended.
Clamps flow restrictor Countdown Timer Assembly Drip Loop Figure 1C Figure 1D Disinfection Procedure UV disinfection is a physical disinfection process and does not add any potentially harmful chemicals to the water. As UV does not provide a disinfection residual, it is imperative that the entire distribution system located after the UV be chemically disinfected to ensure that the water is free from any bacteriological contaminants.

First remove the UV lamp by following steps as outlined in the “Lamp Replacement” section on page 8. Shut off the upstream water supply that feeds water into the reactor chamber. Shut off the downstream water supply. If your system does not have a separate downstream valve, simply open a down- stream faucet to release any pressure that may be built-up in the system.
Troubleshooting PROBLEM CAUSE CORRECTION 1. Pressure Drop A. Sediment pre-filter clogged A. Replace filter cartridge with appropriate 5 micron cartridge. Note: check source water supply as fluctuations B. Flow regulator may occur in source pressure B. Flow regulator will result in pressure drop when approaching full flow.
