Installation and connection
Operation with pool water or salt water
• For operation with pool water or salt water, the following limits must be adhered to:
Type
pH value
Free chlorine
Bound chlorine
Chloride content
Salt content
Water temperature
• Pool water or salt water can impair the appearance of the unit. Such impairments are excluded from the guarantee.
Distances to be adhered to
B
• Swimming pond or pool that may be accessed by people.
− Install the unit at least 6.6 ft (2 m) away from the water.
• Garden pond or aquarium:
− Install the unit at least 6.6 ft (2 m) away from the water.
• Allow sufficient space for carrying out maintenance work.
− Ensure that there is space of at least double the width of the casing for removing the unit head.
Solo operation
C
• Only install the unit in the permitted positions to ensure fault-free operation.
• Take the required distances into consideration. (→ Distances to be adhered to)
• Use suitable fastening material for the type of ground. Ensure that the fastening means securely hold the unit. Take
the weight of the unit into consideration. (→ Technical data)
• Fit a slide valve in the water supply upstream of the inlet of the unit if the unit is to be installed below the water level.
This allows the water supply to be shut off for maintenance work.
Connecting the inlet
Use hoses that are suitable for a pressure of at least 14.5 psi (1 bar).

1. Push the inlet nozzle into the inlet.
− The inlet nozzle is only necessary for a flow rate < 2.642 gal/h (10.000 l/h to ensure unimpaired rotation of the
cleaning rotor.
2. Screw the hose connector with union nut and seal onto the inlet.
3. Connect the hose with the stepped hose adapter and secure with a hose clip.

1. Screw the stepped hose adapter with union nut and seal onto the adapter.
2. Connect the hose with the stepped hose adapter and secure with a hose clip.
3. Screw the cover cap with flat seal onto the outlet.
− The cover cap has to close the outlet opposite the inlet so that the main flow of water is guided along the UVC
lamps and is exposed to the UV radiation for as long as possible.
Connect the unit to the flow-through filter.
• Take the required distances into consideration. (→ Distances to be adhered to)
• Fit a slide valve in the water supply upstream of the inlet of the unit if the unit is to be installed below the water level.
This allows the water supply to be shut off for maintenance work.
