  • Page 4: Safety Considerations

    Safety Considerations Although your UV system has been manufactured to the highest safety standards, care must be followed when operating and/or maintaining your system. 1. Before servicing this equipment, disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet. 2. Energy given off by the UV lamp is harmful to your eyes and skin. NEVER look directly at an illuminated UV lamp without adequate eye protection and always protect your skin from direct exposure to the UV light.

    80% for pre-treatment recommendations) You can have your water tested at a private analytical laboratory or by your local dealer. It is always recommended to install pre-filtration of at least 5 microns prior to a GALAXY UV disinfec- tion system.
  • Page 6: Assembly

    Assembly Unpack the system and ensure all the components are included with the system. Your system is shipped with the following components: GALAXY UV (Standard output lamp systems) LAMP KEY GLAND NUT CONTROLLER 320006 G4 SYSTEMS O-RING GX-C-4 G5/G6 SYSTEMS...

  • Page 8: System Sizing

    System Sizing All GALAXY UV systems are rated for a specific flow rate in water that meets the quality param- eters on page 5. PLEASE NOTE that increasing the flow above this rating or disinfecting water that does not meet the quality parameters will decrease the dose and therefore compromise the microorganism inactivation.
  • Page 9: Installation

    UV lamp and/or quartz sleeve (See Figure 2). The controller will require a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI or GFI) outlet and should be mounted beside or above the reac- tor. PLEASE NOTE: All GALAXY UV disinfection systems are intended for indoor use only as they should not be exposed to the elements.
  • Page 10 Step 6: Once the system has been plumbed in, gently remove the quartz sleeve from its packaging being careful not to touch the length with your hands. The use of cotton gloves is recommended for this procedure as oils from the hands can leave residue on the sleeve and lamp which can ultimately block the UV light from getting to the wa- ter.
  • Page 11 Step 11: Always hold UV lamps by their ceramic ends, not by the lamp quartz. Remove the lamp from its packaging. Again, the use of cotton gloves is recommended. Remove the lamp key from the lamp’s connector and set it aside for the next step. Be careful to not touch the key’s exposed contacts.
  • Page 12: System Disinfection

    Reinstall the filter cartridge into the sump and flush the chlorine solution by open- ing all faucets until chlorine can no longer be detected. Your home has now been completely disinfected with your GALAXY UV system ready to inactivate any microorganisms that enter the home.
  • Page 13: Cleaning The Uv Sensor

    Replace sensor following step 9 from the installation section of the manual. Operation GALAXY UV systems come with a feature laden controller that incorporates both the lamp driver (ballast) and control features in one water-tight case. Four main controllers are available for the GALAXY UV systems (depending on your model).
  • Page 14: Gx4/-H Controllers

    When the UV lamp is not on or the lamp life has expired, the LED will be illuminated red and an audible buzzer will be sounding. To remedy this condition, the UV lamp must be replaced with a new genuine GALAXY UV lamp. GX4-H GX5/-H & GX6/-H Controllers A full colour LCD screen provides the user with a detailed description of the system’s performance in addition to pro-...
  • Page 15: Gx5/-H Operational Screens

    On systems without the UV monitor, the default screen shows the GALAXY UV Home Screen. At any point during operation the user is able to scroll through the GALAXY UV Home Screen, Lamp life remaining, QR Code, Contact Info and Maintenance Parts screens by pressing the button located on the front of the controller.
  • Page 16: Gx6/-H Operational Screens

    GX6/-H Operational Screens On systems with the UV monitor, the system will display the same screens as on the GX5/-H except the UV Intensity replaces the home screen. The UV Intensity screen displays the level of UV light detected by the sensor. UV intensity can be affected by poor water quality, scaling on the quartz sleeve and/or sensor, lamp failure or lamp expiring.

  • Page 21 SOLENOID CONNECTION MODULE: Connects a NORMALLY CLOSED line voltage solenoid valve to the system. On a non-monitored system, the sole- noid will only close on a lamp failure error. On a monitored system, the solenoid is closed when the UV level drops below 50%. Also note that in cases where emergency use of untreated water is re- quired, the controller can be placed into a manual override mode allowing for the flow of water in an...
