Step 3: Hose installation
Connect the intake and outlet tubes (1.37/1.38) to the hoses included with
the kit. Avoid hoses being bent sharply or loops being formed. Shorten
the hoses – if the full length is not required – according to your installation
requirements. The shorter the hoses, the less friction loss there is. Should
you need longer hoses, however, please choose the corresponding di-
ameter [16/22 mm (0.63/0.87 in.) for the UVC-Xtreme 800, and 18/23 mm
(0.71/0.91 in.) for the UVC-Xtreme 1200]. Smaller internal hose diameters

First loosen the nuts and push them loosely over the hose (7.4).
Then please push the hose ends into the circular gap between the pres-

Mount the spray bar by means of the included suction cup holders un-
derneath the desired water surface of the aquarium and direct it in a way
that the small holes are roughly parallel 5 – 15 cm (2 – 6 in.) underneath
the water surface (7.1).
