Sicce UV-C 7 Bedienungsanleitung Seite 6

The range of UV-C Clarifiers has been designed for easy and practical use in aquariums and ponds. In
EN
aquariums, UV-C radiation damages the cell membrane of unwanted organisms (algae and pathogens) which
are then eliminated by the clarifiers. The clarifier provides an important contribution to the treatment against
parasites without the use of medicines. In the case of ponds, the algae are neutralized, making the water
IT
clearer.
The water inside the clarifier, flows though the UVC chamber where the UV-C lamp is
positioned.

COMPONENTS
1. UV-C Clarifier
2. Step hose holder
FEATURES
• 24-hour operation
• UV-C clarifier with indicator light
• IP68 submersible device
INSTALLATION
The clarifier can be installed both immersed in water and out of water. It makes no difference which sleeve to
use for the water inlet and outlet. Connect the hoses to the hose holders supplied. If necessary, cut the smaller
diameters of the hose holder, if they are not used, to avoid creating obstructions. Screw the hose holders to
the sterilizer, paying attention to the presence and correct positioning of the O-rings. It is advisable to limit the
flow of water inside the clarifier because a slower flow increases exposure to UV-C rays and subsequently its
effectiveness. Position it so that the blue indicator light is visible to the user. The clarifier contains a glass lamp
and a quartz glass tube: handle with care during installation to avoid damaging these internal components.
Connect the power cable only after completing the clarifier installation. The bright blue light will indicate that
the UV-C lamp is working.
Never lift the clarifier with the power cord since this will damage the cord, the UV-C clarifier, or the pump.

UV-C LAMP REPLACEMENT
To Optimize the UV-C clarifications, it is recommended to change the UV-C lamp after approx. 8000 hours
of operation or once per year.
Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet.
1. Turn the outer ring nut (B) counterclockwise until it stops. The head (C) of the transformer rises a few
millimeters and is thus easily removed from the housing. A safety system turns off the lamp, in case
the power has not been turned off, to prevent exposure to UV-C rays during maintenance.
2. Release the lamp (D) from its socket by pulling it gently.
3. Reinstall the new lamp in the same manner.
4. Insert the head (C) back into the clarifier-there is only one position for the head to enter the clarifier
(E).
5. Turn the ring nut (B) clockwise to complete the operation.
CLEANING THE QUARTZ SLEEVE
6. To clean the quartz tube, after step 1, pull out the tube assembly (F) through the two appropriate
openings (G) or by using a screwdriver. Clean the outside of the quartz sleeve with a small brush,
mild soap, or Sicce's PUMP CLEAN.
7. Insert the assembly (F) back into the housing - there is only one position for the assembly to enter the
housing (E) so line up the notch.
8. Resume reassembly from step 4.
Winter season
The clarifier must be protected from freezing. During the winter season the clarifier should be turned off,
emptied of all water, removed from the pond and stored in a dry, sheltered place. It is recommended to leave
the clarifier open during storage.
