Safety Considerations It is important that care is taken 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.
Water Quality Parameters UV disinfection is only effective if the UV light can pass through the water it needs to treat. This means that the quality of your water is very important in order to ensure complete disinfection. Treated water should be tested for at the least the parameters listed below. If the water exceeds the listed parameters CULLIGAN strongly recommends that appropriate pretreatment equip- ment be installed (equipment required will depend on parameters being treated): Hardness:...
Assembly Unpack the system and ensure all the components are included with the system. Your system is shipped with the following components: CULLIGAN (Standard output lamp systems) LAMP KEY GLAND NUT CONTROLLER 320006 4.1 SYSTEMS O-RING RC-CE1 North American RC-CE2 Euro 300038 RC-CE3 British UV LAMP...

System Sizing All CULLIGAN UV systems are rated for a specific flow rate in water that meets the quality pa- rameters 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 efficacy of the system.
To facilitate lamp removal, ensure there is enough space at the lamp connector end to safely remove the 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 reactor. PLEASE NOTE: All CULLIGAN UV disinfection systems are intended for indoor use only as they should not be exposed to the elements.

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.

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.
System Preparation With a new installation, or any time the UV system is shut down for service, without power, or is inoperative for any other reason, the lines in the home or facility could be contaminated. Use the following steps to prepare the lines throughout the entire home or facility. Step 1: Check for and remove any “dead ends”...
Step 11: Replace the o-ring and slide the sleeve back into the reactor following steps 7 and 8 from the installation section of the manual. Cleaning the UV Sensor Depending on the water quality, the UV sensor may require periodic cleaning. At a minimum, the UV sensor should be cleaning on an annual basis.
CUV4 Controllers Simplistic in operation, these systems feature a tri-colour LED that indicating system status and a 4-digit display to in- dicate lamp life remaining. Pressing the button will change the display to indicate total running time. When the UV lamp is on and within its operating age, the LED will be green.
A final module screen is displayed showing which specific modules were initialized. The controller then displays the lamp optimization screen for 60 seconds to allow the lamp to reach its optimum output. Finally, a final “start-up complete” screen is displayed. The system will now be ready to disinfect water flow.
audible chirp every audible chirp every constant audible cycles with red low 15 seconds 15 seconds alarm uv screen Lamp Countdown Sequence The system counts down the number of days until a lamp change is required. CUV5 / CUV6 CUV4 At thirty days remaining, the LED or display screen will change to a yellow caution indicator.
System Service Suggested CUV5 and CUV6 controllers will display the System Service Suggested Screen every 6 months to remind consumers to maintain both their UV and other prefiltration. This will serve as a prompt only and will not put the system into alarm.
System Troubleshooting Hard Alarms: The following give a constant audible alarm. If present, the solenoid valve is closed, and the 4-20, remote alarm and WiFi modules transmit the alarm.

Temperature Management Devices Your CULLIGAN UV system is designed to run continuously to ensure optimal disinfection. However, during periods when no water is drawn through the system, the energy from the disinfection process can cause the temperature of the water inside the chamber to rise. In extreme situations elevated water temperature or the fluctuation in temperature can lower the output of the UV lamp.

SOLENOID CONNECTION MODULE: Connects a NORMALLY CLOSED line voltage solenoid valve to the system. Maximum contact rating is 240VAC (50-60Hz) / 30VDC / 2A. On a non-monitored system, the solenoid will only close on a lamp failure error. On a monitored system, the solenoid is closed when the UV level drops below 50%.
