    Safety Instructions: WARNING - to guard against injury, basic safety precautions should be observed, including the following: 1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS. 2. CAUTION - Always disconnect power before servicing. 3. DANGER - To avoid possible electric shock, special care should be taken since water is present near electrical equipment.
  • Page 7: Water Chemistry

    Water Chemistry: Water quality is extremely important for the optimum performance of your UV disinfection system. The following levels are recommended for installation: • Iron: < 0.3 ppm (0.3 mg/L) • Hardness*: < 7 gpg (120 mg/L) • Turbidity: < 1 NTU •...
  • Page 8 optional 4-20Ma “Y” cable 2. Select a suitable location for the disinfection system and its related components. As it is recommended to install a ground fault protected circuit (GFCI), make sure that this is taken into consideration prior to any installation. When selecting a mounting location, you must leave enough space to allow for the removal of the UV lamp/quartz sleeve, as well as enough space to change out the filter cartridges (typically leave a space equal to the size of the reactor chamber itself above...
  • Page 9 8. Once it is determined that there are no leaks, plug the system into the ground fault interrupter, and check controller to ensure the system is operating properly. The controller is designed to detect both power to the system and lamp illumination. It is important to NEVER LOOk DIRECTLY AT THE GLOWING UV LAMP.
  • Page 10: Disinfection Procedure

    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.
  • Page 11: Operating And Maintenance Instructions

    OPERATION • Always disconnect power before performing any work on the disinfection system. • Regularly inspect your disinfection system to ensure that the power indicators are on and no alarms are present. • Replace the UV lamp annually (or biennially if seasonal home use) to ensure maximum disinfection.
  • Page 12 4. Once the lamp is fully seated on the connector, slide the connector over the aluminum retaining nut. Make sure the metal retaining ring on the connector is pulled away from the body of the connector in order that the connector may slide fully over the retaining nut.
  • Page 13 UV Sensor Replacement / Cleaning (SCM models only): The UV sensor is very delicate instrument. Extreme care is required when handling and cleaning. The sensor window itself is constructed from quartz which is extremely fragile, be careful you do not chip or break this quartz window. Manufacturer’s warranty does not cover damage due to neglect or misuse.
  • Page 14 Cartridge Change: It is recommended to change the filter cartridges every six months (or earlier). A gradual drop in water pressure after the filtration device is an accurate method of determining that the pre-filter cartridges are nearing the end of their useful life! To change the cartridges, please follow the following procedures: Note: Prior to performing any work on the whole home system, ALWAYS DISCONNECT THE pOwER SUppLy FIRST.
  • Page 15: Operation

    Operation: Basic Systems incorporating BA-ICE-C controller: 1. Lamp life remaining (days): The controller tracks the number of days of operation of the lamp and the controller. The default screen will display the total lamp life remaining (in days). The controller will count down the number of days remaining until the lamp requires changing (365 days to 1 day).
  • Page 16 “plus” Systems incorporating BA-ICE-CM controller: 1. UV intensity (%): The Cobalt “Plus” series of products incorporate a UV sensor which detects the discrete 254 nm wavelength of the UV lamp. This information is relayed to the Cobalt “Plus” controller and is the default display shown in “% UV output”. The system will display the UV output between 50 to 99 percent.
  • Page 17: Operation

    Possible causes for low UV alarm conditions: a) The UV lamp has perhaps reached a level whereby it can no longer adequately provide a sufficient level of disinfection due to age (> 9000 hours). The lamp should be replaced with a new lamp from the manufacturer of the same size and type. b) The quartz sleeve and/or the sensor window have become stained or dirty.
  • Page 18 6. 4-20mA output (optional): For those looking for the capability to transmit the UV intensity data to a remote location via a 4-20 mA signal, an optional “Y” cable is available from your dealer (Figure 5A). Please order PN 260134. This “Y” cable comes with 20 meters (65‘) of cable for the 4-20 mA signal.
