8. MAINTENANCE OF THE UV REACTOR

UV bulbs and quartz sleeves must only be handled with protective gloves to avoid leaving any marks
that could alter the quality of the UV emissions and protect your hands in case of broken glass.

8.1. Bulb replacement procedure

Ultraviolet bulbs are designed to last 13,000 hours depending on the number of times they are switched on, which is
approximately 3 years for a seasonal outdoor pool or 1.5 years for a 24-hour indoor pool.
In order to avoid premature wear and tear, only one start-up per day, i.e. one filter cycle, is recommended. This will
also preserve the filter pump.

The steriliser must be turned OFF.
Unscrew the 4 screws on the cover with a Phillips screwdriver and remove the
cover.
Undo the connector.
Make sure the bulb has cooled down sufficiently before handling it.
Remove the bulb (using the connector if necessary) and place it on a clean, soft
surface.
Do this carefully without touching the glass of the bulb with your hands.
Do not drop the bulb into the quartz sleeve, as this could break and damage the
quartz.
Note: For HO bulbs, when the bulb is changed for the first time, there may be
small O-rings at the ends to lock the bulb in place during transport. There is no
need to replace them or to refit them on the new bulbs.
