Section 3 Installation
3.1 UV Disinfection System
Electronic controller must be connected to a Ground Fault Protected Circuit (GFCI) receptacle and the lamp connector ground wire connected to the
stainless steel chamber.
The disinfection system is designed to be mounted either horizontally or vertically at the point-of-use or point-of-entry
depending on the specific flow rate of the unit.
Note: The ideal installation is vertical with the lamp connector on top. This is to prevent water damage from occurring on the
lamp pins and lamp connector.
• The controller should be mounted either above or beside the chamber. Always mount controller horizontally to prevent
moisture from running down cordage and causing a potential fire hazard. Drip loops in all cordage connected to
controller is highly recommended. Refer to
• The complete water system, including any pressure or hot water tanks, must be sterilized before start up by flushing with
chlorine (household bleach) to destroy any residual contamination. Refer to
• The disinfection system is intended for indoor use only, do not install disinfection system where it may be exposed to the
weather.
• Install the disinfection system on cold water line only, before any branched lines.
• A 5 micron sediment filter must precede the disinfection system. Ideally, the disinfection system should be the last
treatment the water receives before it reaches the faucet.
Procedure:
1. Figure 2 shows the installation of a typical disinfection system and the related components that may be used for the
installation. The use of a by-pass assembly is recommended in case the system requires "off-line" maintenance. In this
case, note the system requires a supplementary disinfection for the distribution system if any water is used during
by-pass condition. In addition, during by-pass, the water will NOT be disinfected and a "DO NOT CONSUME THE
WATER" tag should be physically installed on the by-pass assembly until such time as the system is sanitized and
returned to service. For more information, refer to
the water must be boiled for twenty minutes prior to consumption.
