Installation Pre-Installation Check List Water Pressure If the water pressure is over 100 psi, a pressure reducing valve must be installed before the equipment and set at 85 psi Electrical A grounded electrical outlet with a continuous supply of 110 to 120 volt - 60 hertz current should be located at installation site of the equipment. A drain, must be available within 20 feet of the equipment. Location of the equipment must be where it is not subject to freezing, direct sunlight or room Temperature over 120 F. The equipment must be installed on the cold water line after the well pressure tank or water meter and before it branches off to the water heater. Before putting the unit into final operation follow sanitation procedures as outlined in this manual for proper disinfection. Sanitizing all discharge piping and fittings with chlorine or approved water piping disinfection process. from disinfection unit to point of use removes existing contaminants and gives the unit a clean start. Be sure to rinse with U.V. treated water. A proper flow control must be used to insure only the designated flow through the unit. Installation 1. All plumbing must conform to local codes 2. Location Selection If it is likely that supplementary water treatment equipment will be required, make certain adequate additional space is available. The AS-V series are always placed after the pressure tank and any other type of treatment devices (i.e. softeners, filters). It is recommended to use some form of pre-treatment, such as a cartridge filter, to improve the clearity of the water and to safely disinfect the plumbing system. Do not install any equipment closer to a water heater than a total run of 10 feet of piping between the outlet of the equipment and the inlet to the heater. 3. Water Line Connection 4. Quartz Sleeves and UV Lamps After mounting, install quartz sleeve, O-Ring, and bulb per instructions. Turn on the water slowly, check for leaks, and repair as needed prior to full service operation. NOTE: For more detail on installation, cleaning and maintenance of the UV Lamps and Quartz Sleeves, see page 7 of this manual. NOTE: Once the system has been pressure check for leaks, the system needs to be disinfection using the sanitation procedures. ( See page 6 for instructions.) 5. Electrical Connection Remove twist tie from cord set and extend cord to its full length. Plug into socket that will accept 3-prong. Be sure the electrical outlet is not controlled by a wall switch. Turn power on and set electronic controls to current time of day (refer to user quick reference guide for setup instructions).if hard wiring electrical power make sure you review the wiring diagram and have electrical work done by a licenced electrician. WARNING: 1. Always disconnect electrical power to any U.V. unit before servicing. 2. Under no circumstances should personnel look at a U.V. lamp in operation (EXCEPT through an external Site Port lens located on the outside of the unit). 3. U.V. Disinfection units must always be properly grounded. Close main water supply valve. Open faucets to relieve water pressure and drain system. Mount the equipment into installation position. Assess the installation (i.e. type of pipe, size of lines, etc.) and obtain necessary plumbing fittings for installation. Use Teflon tape on all threaded connections and avoid over tightening. WARNING: If your piping system is subject to impulse pressure resulting in a water hammer condition, a surge tank or other means must be provided to remove this condition; otherwise, this extreme shock pressure condition may rupture or fracture the quartz sleeve. 4 Aqua Treatment Service, Inc. 2014 www.aquat.com

Sanitation Procedure IMPORTANCE OF DISINFECTING A WATER SYSTEM: Every new well, or existing water supply system that has been disrupted for service or repair, should be disinfected before it is returned to use. Water in the well and storage tank should be treated with a strong chlorine solution or approved disinfection process to destroy disease organisms. All pipelines and fixtures in the distribution system should be rinsed and flushed with chlorinated water. Upon installation of a U.V. disinfection unit or bulb replacement service, disinfection with chlorine to initially flush the system is recommended to assure line sanitation prior to U.V. start up. The source of chlorine can be ordinary liquid laundry bleach (about 5.25% available chlorine). The quantity required depends on the volume of water to be treated. The United States Environment Protection Agency (EPA) indicated that about 100 parts of chlorine, by weight, mixed in a million parts of water will destroy essentially all water-borne disease organisms. WARNING: 1. Always follow the sanitizing procedure required by applicable state or local laws. 2. Chlorine may break loose iron deposits, slime and organic material. This material will make the water run colored. The material broken loose may plug pump screens. Do not continue to run pump if water doesn t flow. 3. The high level of chlorine required to sanitize a water system is corrosive to most metals and chlorine solution must not be allowed to remain in water system more than 36 hours before being completely flushed from system. 1. Systems With Pre-filter Turn off water. Unscrew Sump, remove filter and fill sump with liquid chlorine or standard bleach. Reattach sump to filter head. Turn water supply on. Go to each cold water line and run the water untill the chlorine is detected. Once chlorine is detected, turn the running water off. Allow chlorine to sit in plumbing for 30 min. To flush chlorine from system, run water at each faucet for several min. After system has been completely flushed, reinstall the filter and perform a bacteriological analysis on the water following all applicable procedures. 2. Systems With No Pre-filter Turn off water. Drain UV Chamber and remove quartz sleeve. Add chlorine through opening down into chamber. (approx 1 qrt.) Reinstall quartz sleeve. Turn water supply on. Go to each cold water line and run the water untill the chlorine is detected. Once chlorine is detected, turn the running water off. Allow chlorine to sit in plumbing for 30 min. To flush chlorine from system, run water at each faucet for several min. After system has been completely flushed, perform a bacteriological analysis on the water following all applicable procedures. 6 Aqua Treatment Service, Inc. 2014 www.aquat.com
Maintenance QUARTZ SLEEVE: Installation of the Quartz Sleeve: Always handle quartz sleeves carefully to prevent breaking or chipping. The quartz sleeves are to be clean and free of fingerprints before installing. Remove the compression nut. Install the quartz sleeve through the hole in the stainless steel top plate. Install the O-Ring down over and around the Quartz Sleeve. Place the retaining ring (with ark facing up) over the O-Ring and Quartz Sleeve. Hand-tighten each compression nut to form a compression seal around the Quartz Sleeve. Avoid over tightening the nuts, which may cause a fracture on the end of the Quartz Sleeve. Under normal operating conditions, hand-tightening will provide a 100 psi seal. Do not use any devices to tighten end nuts. Repeat this procedure for the remaining Quartz Sleeves in the chamber. After you have tightened the compression nut and all other plumbing connections, open the outlet valve. Slowly open the inlet valve and flush out all remaining air. Then close the outlet valve and slowly open the inlet valve fully. Check the unit for leaks. If you find a leak at the compression nut, tighten the nut further. If the leak continues, drain the unit and inspect the quartz O-Ring and Quartz Sleeve for proper seal. Once you complete checking the unit, reassemble O-Ring, retaining ring and gland nut. Repressurize the unit and check again. UV LAMPS: Installation of the UV Lamps: **DO NOT PUT POWER ON AT THIS TIME!** CAUTION: Never look directly at an operating U.V. lamp. Never operate a U.V. lamp outside the disinfection chamber. Make sure unit is unplugged when installing or servicing ultraviolet lamp. Remove any paper tabs on the U.V. lamp and avoid allowing fingerprints and other debris to deposit. Carefully place the lamp inside the quartz sleeve leaving enough space to connect the socket connector to the lamp pins. Requirements for Cleaning the UV Lamps: The U.V. lamp is rated for 12,000 hours of continuous use. After this period of time, the U.V. lamp has undergone a photochemical change. While the lamp will not normally be burned out, the lamp quartz may no longer emit the 254-nm shortwave U.V. to effectively kill bacteria. Failure to replace the U.V. lamps every 12,000 hours may cause bacteriological breakthrough. Should the use of the disinfection unit be intermittent, in no case should the U.V. lamp be used for more than 16 months regardless of the number of hours of operation due to normal shelf life degradation of the U.V. bulb. Changing the quartz sleeve should be done at the same time U.V. lamp replacement is scheduled. Requirements for Cleaning the Quartz Sleeve: As water passes through the U.V., minerals, debris and other matter in the water may deposit onto the Quartz Sleeve. After sufficient film has formed on the Quartz Sleeve, the ability of the ultraviolet germicidal rays to pass though the Quartz Sleeve and into the water may be impaired. Therefore, it is necessary to determine a cleaning schedule for the Quartz Sleeve. The frequency will depend on the specific type of water conditions. If the water has been processed through deionization, reverse osmosis, or is distilled, cleaning may be required only once per year. If untreated water is used, the cleaning frequency will vary. A minimum of once yearly is standard recommendation for cleaning and lamp replacement. Your specific situation will vary the frequency time according to the water quality of the home or facility application. It is recommended that your water supply be tested periodically through your local health department or approved certified laboratory. Maintenance Schedule: Replace UV Lamps, Quartz Sleeves and O-Rings 16 months. This will insure the propre function of the unit. Cleaning the Quartz Sleeve: To clean the Quartz Sleeve, turn off the water flow to the disinfection unit, turn power off, and disconnect the electrical service to the lamp pins. Carefully remove the U.V. lamp. Loosen the compression nuts with O-Rings and remove the Quartz Sleeve while draining the water from the chamber. The Quartz Sleeve may then be washed with a mild soap and hot water solution and rinsed clean with hot water. Should this be insufficient to clean the Quartz Sleeve, a mild acid or an approved cleaning solution may be used (i.e. vinegar). Be certain to follow all recommended safety and handling procedures on the acid container. It is important to handle the Quartz Sleeve with care to prevent breakage. Make certain that all finger prints are wiped clean before reinstalling (see installation of the Quartz Sleeve). Replace O-Rings every time a Quartz Sleeve is cleaned or replaced. www.aquat.com Aqua Treatment Service, Inc. 2014 7
