SPA UV-C 21 WAT T
OPERATION
Inside the reactor a UV-C lamp produces radiation with a wavelength of 253.7 nm. Radiation of this type
kills bacteria, viruses, algae and fungi (e.g. Legionella and Cryptosporidium). The UV-C unit produces
clean, fresh, clear water in an efficient, environmentally friendly way. The water is fed through the
UV-C device by a pump. The UV-C radiation neutralizes bacteria, viruses and other micro-organisms
and prevents them from reproducing. Floating algae is also destroyed by this radiation, which greatly
improves the clarity of the water. The UV-C unit is equipped with an electronic ballast. This ballast
ensures optimum performance of the lamp.
Thanks to the UV-C unit, the water is disinfected efficiently and safely. Providing you with excellent water
quality. Overdosing with UV-C is not possible.
CAUTION:
Carefully read these instructions before installing this device.
Always make sure to have a correct
grounding. When in doubt about the
grounding of the electrotechnical
installation in general, always consult
a licensed electrotechnical mechanic.
Faulty grounding can be dangerous.
Radiation of this ultraviolet lamp is
dangerous for eyes and skin.
The quartz glass and the UV-C lamp will
stay warm for quite some time after the
device has been switched off. It has a
cooling time of at least 15 minutes.
The UV-C lamp should never be
turned on when there's no flow.
INSTALLATION OF THE UV-C DEVICE (DRAWING 1)
Decide where you want to mount the device. The best place to install the UV-C device is directly
after the filter(s). See the schematic diagram in the operating instructions. Make sure there is always
water flowing through the device when the lamp is on. Never install the device in direct sunlight.
Install the device in a dry, well-ventilated area. The device can be installed either horizontally
or vertically, provided that the water flow is from bottom to top (see schematic diagram at the
beginning of the instructions for use). At least 0.5 metre of unobstructed space must be left on the
side with the lamp connection for convenient future replacement of the lamp (K) without having to
disconnect the entire device.

It's not permitted to flow a liquid through
the reactor or to add additions to the
water that has to be treated, which can
have a negative effect on corrosion
or degradation on the used materials.
This to avoid dangerous situations or
damage to the reactor and surrounding
installations and/or to the flora and fauna.
Always free the device of tension
first during maintenance! Risk of an
electric shock. Connect only to a
grounding type receptacle protected
by a ground- fault circuit-interrupter
(GFCI). Do not use an extension cord.
Wear gloves to protect the quartz glass
and UV-C lamp against fingerprints.
Fingerprints can burn into the quartz
glass and UV-C lamp while turned on,
causing reduction of the disinfection.
Wear safety glasses during
maintenance and installation.
