MAINTENANCE & DOWNTIME
All BWT AQA drink water dispensers are technical devices which provide drinking water to the end user in a
hygienically treated form. To ensure optimum operation and the best possible water quality, correct, regular
and professional maintenance is required.
Note!
If the status lamp for the UV reactor flashes red when water is drawn (see chapter 4.3 "Control panel"), the
UV reactor is defective and must be checked by a service technician.
7.1
MAINTENANCE INTERVALS
The maintenance interval depends on
- the amount of water/water quality used (note filter capacity)
- the ambient conditions
- the local maintenance regulations for drinking water equipment.
» Cleaning and disinfection:
We recommend cleaning and disinfecting the water dispenser and replacing the water filter used at least
every six months.
» UV reactor:
It is recommended to replace the UV reactor used every 10 years or if the LED light on the control panel
(see chapter 4.3) flashes red while water is being dispensed. The service life of the UV reactor varies
depending on the amount of water dispensed. The switching cycles are unlimited.
Caution!
All maintenance work may only be carried out by qualified personnel!
