Power must be supplied through a Residual Current Device (RCD) with a rated residual operating current not

exceeding 30 mA. This unit is supplied fitted with a moulded plug:

• For the United Kingdom:

• For Mainland Europe:

• For the USA:

• For Australia:

The UV lamp fitted in this unit has a usable of life of 8000 hours (one year). At 8000 hours the lamp will still be

glowing brightly but the emission of germicidal UVC will have deteriorated to approximately 85% efficiency.

For the majority of home aquarium applications the lamp should be changed once a year (8000 hours).

For more critical applications the lamp should be changed at 4000 hours (6 months).

The UV lamp should be changed at intervals of either 4000 hours or 8000 hours dependent on application. At each

lamp change the quartz sleeve should be removed and cleaned.

Water displacement gasket

A soft black circular rubber gasket is fitted to the right hand side of the white plastic body to protect the lamp holder

assembly from any accidental water spillage or splashing. Each time the cover is removed from the base this gasket

must be correctly located on re-assembly.

When replacing the cover, and before screwing it to the base, make sure that the gasket is fitted onto the right hand

end of the white plastic body and located between the white plastic body and the white plastic compression fitting.

It will be held (loosely) in place by this compression fitting. When correctly fitted the gasket must lean towards the

right, away from the outlet port. When the cover is replaced on the unit this gasket will be visible through the cover

and should be tilting away from the outlet port and towards the lamp end and lamp holder.

When correctly fitted this gasket will protect the lamp end assembly from any possible water splash.

Isolate from electrical and water supplies before removing the cover of the unit.

Caution: If the cover of the unit is wet, gently wipe away any water before removing for servicing or

maintenance. This will prevent water accidentally running onto the electrical components.

1. Remove the cover and lift out the white plastic body. To dismantle the body, pull off the white plastic lampholders

at either end (see diagram) and slide the lamp out carefully.

2. Next, unscrew the two compression fittings located at either end of the white plastic body (see diagram) and

slide off the two 'O' rings.

3. Then slide out the quartz sleeve. Clean the sleeve and polish with a soft cloth or paper towel. If you live in a hard

water area there may be some limescale on the quartz sleeve. This can be easily removed by soaking the sleeve in

a proprietary kettle descaling solution. Failure to remove the limescale will limit the effectiveness of the UV lamp.
