Special safety warning must be taken into consideration for the model PuraShield UV-C Ozone system: The UV Lamp generates ozone that emits a strong odour, even in very small quantities, and can be harmful for eyes, nose and skin.
Ozone and UV-C are two of the most efficient disinfection processes in water treatment. PuraShield UV uses UV exposure only and PuraShield UV + O3 (Ozone) mixes these two concepts in one unique appliance which will help keep your swimming pool water fresh, crystal clear and disinfected, reducing the use of chlorine to a minimum.
2. INTRODUCTION Ozone Disinfection PuraShield UV & Ozone systems contain a high intensity Ultraviolet lamp different from the other UV models. This special lamp emits two separate wavelengths within the UV spectrum: 254nm and 185nm. While the 254nm wave deactivates the DNA of bacteria, viruses and other pathogens, the 185 nm wave is responsible for converting the oxygen contained in the quartz sleeve area into ozone.
Chlorinator. I.e. the UV sanitiser must be installed upstream of the chlorinator. PuraShield UV products are not recommended to be used in seawater or seawater-like environments with high salt content as the stainless steel body will be corroded and leak in long term operation.

UV System The water circulation flows from the swimming pool skimmer to the pump to the filter. Position the PuraShield UV disinfection unit after the filter and before chlorinator. pH or ORP probes (if present) should be mounted after the filter and before the UV sanitiser.

UV System With Ozone The water circulation flows from the swimming pool skimmer to the pump to the filter. Position the PuraShield UV + Ozone disinfection unit after the filter and before chlorinator. pH probes (if present) should be mounted after the filter and before the UV sanitiser.
4. INSTALLATION 5.3 INSTALLATION OPTIONS The dark blue transparent end cap and union set is inter changeable for all models, it can be place on either side. Installation Options It is necessary to place and tighter the O-ring properly to prevent water leakage when doing relocation. There are two sets of 1.5”...
Bypass Guide If the system flowrate exceeds the maximum flowrate for the desired UV exposure, then the PuraShield UV or PuraShield UV + Ozone needs to be installed on a bypass line. If the flowrate through the UV vessel exceeds the maximum flowrate, then the UV dosage will be insufficient and ineffective, so it is important to use the bypass where required.

7. MAINTENANCE 7.3.2 Controller PCB The power cord Live connect to L and Neutral to N of the PCB upper terminals. The power output of the PCB has the same Live and Neutral colour wire to the UV-C lamp ballast. Don’t un-wire the lower 2 position terminal white colour wire.
Loss of any grounding will trigger the RCD or GFCI and stop the power when power on. It is use to protect from personnel electric socket. 11.5 LAMP SOCKET 7. MAINTENANCE It is a T5 type lamp socket and be careful to plug the lamp in right orientation to prevent the lamp’s connect pins broken.
TROUBLESHOOTING Symptom Possible Solution Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet, disassemble the lamp and verify if the lamp connector is fixed firmly in place. Verify if the electric cable is connected into an electrified circuit. Test the electrical circuit.
