UV Operational Display:
Fig. B STANDARD CONTROL PANEL

FOR NEMA RATED CABINET
To verify the status of the UV lamps, the LED display gives the operator a visual
indication of the lamp status. When the UV lamp is ON, the LED will illuminate.
When OFF, the LED will not illuminate. Should any UV lamp fail to operate, the
corresponding LED light will automatically turn OFF.
Each UV lamp is numbered at the end of the treatment chamber and the
corresponding LED light carries the same number on the display panel.
Main Power Switch:

The Main Power Switch isolates all electric power to the unit.
Running Time Meter:

Each of the UV units is furnished with a Running Time Meter that cannot be reset.
It is used to determine the number of hours on the equipment and for
maintenance. It is very important to record the running time hours and lamp
maintenance.
Lamps Operational & Lamp Out Alert:

For remote monitoring of the UV lamp status, the Lamp Out Alert option is
available. The printed circuit board continuously monitors the lamp status. When
one or more lamps are out, a SPDT contact is available for customer interfacing
during Lamp Out Condition. The contact will enable interfacing into a central
monitoring system (PLC, DCS, etc). During the lamp out fault condition, a visual
indicator lamp will illuminate RED on the front panel. The Lamp Out Alert for 4
lamps and above units are equipped with a 3 minute time delay. During the first 3
minutes of operation, the circuit will ignore any lamp out condition. The delay
allows time for the proper warm up of the lamps and prevents false alarm
conditions.
If the water system is not designed with any central monitoring system or local
alarm, then the Lamp Out Alert is not necessary. There is always local display of
the lamp status via the standard LED display.
Depending on the system design, a lamp(s) out condition may require immediate
action. This will be based upon the sizing of the equipment, and if any
redundancy is built into the system. Therefore, in a Lamp Out Condition, the
action of the operator will be based upon the overall design.
Integrated Monitoring Station:

The Aquafine UV Integrated Monitoring System consists of 3 basic components:
the Monitoring Station, the Detector and the Cable with connector.
The corresponding labels identify the different controls. The use of each of these controls
is described in the Monitoring Station Operation section. See page 20.
Fig. A FRONT VIEW OF THE MONITORING STATION

The backside of the Monitoring Station is not accessible to the user after the unit is
installed. During installation, the authorized technician must connect different inputs and
outputs and select the proper position of some switches depending on the installation and
unit requirements. See Fig. B.
NOTE: The UV Monitoring System is not a UV Lamp replacement tool, nor can it be used as a
dosage meter. Degradation of the UV lamps, facility power variation, quartz sleeves, water
temperature, water transmission, and general changes in water quality, will affect the readings. It is
a useful maintenance tool used to determine UV lamp replacement and/or quartz sleeve cleaning
requirements. However, if set-up and monitored properly, it can also give insight into potential
system shortfalls or changes in water quality.

GaN photodiode and semiconductor temperature sensor is uniquely
packaged into a hermetically sealed stainless steel housing. The assembly
of the unit is done under dry nitrogen gas to eliminate the presence of
oxygen and water. The semiconductor sensor signals are then processed
within the sensor and sent via the cable into the Monitoring Station. Do not
attempt to remove any of the screws that seal these ports. By doing so, you
may damage the Detector and will void the warranty and the optional NISTtraceable calibration certification (if included). See page 12 for sample
certificate. The Detector is provided with an O-ring. This O-ring is necessary
to create the proper seal when the unit is installed in the Aquafine UV
treatment chamber. Be sure that the O-ring is present when installing the
Detector in the UV treatment chamber.
Cable: The cable provided with the Detector interconnects the Detector with the
Monitoring Station. On one end it has an IP-65 grade connector that is
connected to the Detector after it is installed in the UV chamber.
AQUALOGIC 2000 MONITORING SYSTEM:

The Aqualogic 2000 is a microprocessor-based system. The Aqualogic 2000 system
consists of two printed circuits boards; the Current Sensing Board (CSB) and the Status
Display Board (SDB). The system monitors Lamp Status, UV Intensity, Low UV Alarm
Point, Lamp Out Alert, Temperature Alarm, unit running time and unit ON/OFF cycles.

Installation
The following are the guidelines and procedures for installing the Optima HX and HX-U
series.
INSTALLATION GUIDELINES:
Location
A) Install the UV treatment unit in a horizontal position in a sheltered, wellventilated area. Ambient temperatures surrounding the unit should be
between 35F (2C) and 110F (43C). Operating water temperature should
be between 40F (4C) to 80F (27C). Should your requirements differ, please
contact your local Aquafine representative or Aquafine Customer Service.
B) As an ultraviolet UV treatment unit does not introduce any chemical residue

within the water, it is desirable to install the unit as close as possible to the
point-of-use in order to avoid potential recontamination by discharge pipes,
fittings, etc. The base of the UV treatment unit should be mounted on suitable
support to avoid undue strain on the unit or related pipes and fittings. Allow
sufficient service access clearance.
C) Limit overhead piping load to 25 lbs (11.3kg), for 2 & 3, 50 lbs (23kg), for 4
and 75 lbs (34kg), for 6 or above. 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 the extreme momentary
pressure may rupture and fracture the quartz sleeves.
D) All units are rated for a maximum operating pressure of 150 psig (10.3 bar).
E) Ultra pure water users have reported that over time, exposure to ultraviolet
light may phytochemically degrade nonmetallic piping materials, including
most or all fluoro-polymers, resulting in a material breakdown and/or structural
failure. Should your water application and piping material be so classified, we
recommend that you install UV light traps to isolate any susceptible material
from direct exposure to the ultraviolet light. Install the UV light trap to the
inlet/outlet of the UV treatment chamber prior to the connection of any nonmetallic piping. Should you require any additional assistance, please contact your
local Aquafine representative or call customer service.
F) Please note the clearance requirements for the replacement of UV Lamps and
quartz sleeves. See page 14 Dos and Donts, section H.
13
Electrical Power
A) The power requirement for each unit depends on the number and type of lamp
used in the treatment chamber. The overall power consumption of each unit is
indicated on the equipment nameplate decal on the unit. The units main fuse
provides primary over-current protection.
B) The units (240 VAC incoming power) require a single phase, grounded neutral
source. If the unit needs to be powered by a 120V AC or 208V AC supply, an
externally mounted step up transformer can be provided.
a)
If the external transformer is factory installed local to the electrical

enclosure, the secondary terminations are factory wired by
Aquafine.
b)
If the external transformer is required, the transformer primary

connections to the customers incoming power shall be made in
conformance to the local codes and be consistent with good
electrical practice.
c)
UV performance is line voltage sensitive. Line voltage should be

+5% of rating shown on the electrical nameplate decal. Voltage
outside these limits will affect the performance of the UV equipment.
d)
All power and control wiring to be done per enclosed wiring diagram.
HX AND HX-U UNIT INSTALLATION & OPERATION DOS AND DONTS:

Dos
A) Install the UV treatment unit in a horizontal position. The UV treatment
chamber should be firmly mounted and secured. For units with remote
enclosures (HX-U), suitably rated fasteners should be used.
B) Provide ample ventilation. Ambient temperatures surrounding the unit should
be between 35F(2C) and 110F (43C).
C) Protect the equipment from the environment. Do not expose the equipment to
direct water spray.
D) Verify the location is free from vibration, which could be caused by proximity to
heavy equipment and erratic or improper pumps. Excessive vibration will
damage internal electrical components and cause premature failure of the UV
lamps.
E) Install a drain valve and pipe to drain.
F) Install sample port valves, if required.
G) Provide isolation valves on the inlet and outlet nozzles. Isolation valves will
allow safe maintenance of the equipment.
H) Allow at least 36 of clearance for 30 units or 72 of clearance for 60 units on
the lamp-changing end of the unit. Clearance for servicing the electrical panel
should be allowed.
I)
Support all piping to the unit. Limit overhead piping load to 25 lbs (11.3kg), for
2 & 3, 50 lbs (23kg), for 4 and 75 lbs (34 kg), for 6 or above.
NOTE: It is imperative that the unit be properly grounded for safe and proper operation. FAILURE
TO PROPERLY GROUND THE UV TREATMENT UNIT AUTOMATICALLY VOIDS ALL
EQUIPMENT WARRANTY.
14
J) 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 the extreme momentary pressure may rupture and
fracture the quartz sleeves.
K) Provide an electrical disconnect switch to the unit if it is not supplied with the
unit. During service and maintenance, the electrical power must be removed.
L) Operate the equipment within +/- 5% of 240vac.
M) Interface the Low UV, High Temperature, or Lamp Out Alert Alarm relays to
any system monitoring station.
N) After installation of the quartz sleeves, always pressure test the system prior to
installation of the UV lamps and applying electrical power. All leaks should be
repaired. During pressure testing, do not stand in a direct line with the quartz sleeves.
O) Before start-up, flush the UV unit and discharge piping to rinse out any debris
left from installation.
P) The UV treatment chamber should be filled with water. The flow of water
during the initial filling should not exceed 50 GPM. Failure to comply may result
in quartz sleeve breakage.
Q) While the equipment is in normal operating mode, check to see that there is
airflow at the cooling fan intake and exhaust ports. Depending upon the
model, there are generally one or more exhausted fans that should be
cleaned and maintained. Some units have mesh filter, which should be
cleaned frequently, depending upon the operating environment.
Donts
A) Do not exceed maximum operating pressure of unit.
B) Do not exceed the maximum flow rate of the model.
C) To maintain standard rated performance, do not allow the inlet water
temperature to exceed 80F (27C). Units should not be operated with water
temperatures exceeding120F (49C). For applications between 80F (27C) and
120F (49C), contact Aquafine Customer Service.
D) For heat sanitization it is recommended that stainless steel compression nuts
be used in place of CPVC compression nuts. The selection of the Elastomer
should be considered.
E) Never allow operating water temperature to exceed 120F (49C). Permanent
damage can be caused to the UV lamp(s), electronic ballast and related
components above this temperature. Operating the ultraviolet unit above the
defined temperature through the chamber automatically voids the warranty.
Elevated temperatures cause the UV lamp(s) to lose effectiveness. The heat
can permanently damage the ultraviolet lamp(s). The heat can also damage
the lamp ballast and related instrumentation.
F) Do not exceed 3 ON/OFF cycles per 24-hour operation. Excessive cycling of
the unit will prematurely age the UV lamps.
15
QUARTZ SLEEVE INSTALLATION:

The quartz sleeves designed for this series are open on both ends. The following are the
guidelines and procedure for quartz sleeve installation.
1. Turn off all power to the unit.

10. Rotate and screw the lamp socket cap into place. Only hand tightening is
required. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN!
11. Install the compression nut caps and the compression nuts on the second
endplate and tighten by hand.
NOTE: If the unit is supplied with a monitoring system, recalibration must be performed after the
first 100 hours of operation on new UV lamps, both at the time of installation and each time the UV
lamps are replaced. Failure to correct may result in incorrect readings of relative UV irradiance
(percentage).
17
POWERING UP:
Prior to turning on the UV unit, the following must be verified:
1. The UV chamber should be filled with water. The flow of water for the
initial filling should not exceed 50 GPM. Failure to comply may result in
quartz sleeves breakage.
SAFETY

18
Ensure there are no system leaks and no piping connection leaks.
All earth ground connections are properly made.
All lamp connections are properly made.
The socket cover is secured to the end of the UV treatment unit.
Verify that all incoming power conductors, including the ground

conductor, are properly terminated.
2.
Turn on the electrical power to the UV unit.
3.
Observe the UV LED Operational Display. For non-Aqualogic 2000

units, the LED should illuminate yellow when the lamp is on. For the
Aqualogic 2000 units, the Lamp Status LED should change from RED to
GREEN. GREEN indicates the lamp is ON, RED indicates the lamp is
OFF.
4.
Connect the Monitoring Detector Cable, if equipped.
CAUTION! PRIOR TO ENERGIZING THE BALLASTS AND LAMPS, ENSURE THERE IS NO WATER LEAKING
INTO THE QUARTZ SLEEVES AND COMPRESSION NUT CAVITIES BY PROPERLY INSTALLING THESE
COMPONENTS.
EVEN A SMALL LEAK CAN FLOOD A QUARTZ SLEEVE AND COMPRESSION NUT CAVITY.
DURING OPERATION, HIGH VOLTAGE IS PRESENT AT THE LAMP PINS AND RECEPTACLES OF THE LAMP
CONNECTORS. PROLONGED FLOODING OF THE QUARTZ SLEEVE AND COMPRESSION NUT CAVITY CAN
CAUSE PREMATURE FAILURE OF THE LAMP CONNECTOR CABLE AND MAY RESULT IN A MELTDOWN OF THE
CABLE INSULATION.

HX & HX-U Series
Operation
OPERATIONAL GUIDELINES:
1) Release the pressure in the UV treatment chamber before attempting to
remove the protective covers and sealing items.
2) Disconnect all power to the UV unit before servicing. The unit operates on
high voltage and should only be serviced by qualified personnel.
3) Do not allow the unit to overheat by operating without water flow. Standard
flow rates are based on water temperatures of 40F to 80F. For applications
outside these temperatures, contact customer service for assistance. In no
case should the water temperature be below 35F or above 120F. For heat
sanitization above 170F, stainless steel compression nuts and Viton
elastomers are recommended. With these components, sanitization up to
250F (121C) is allowed in a non-operating state.
4) Intermittent operation is allowed as long as the water temperature does not
exceed 120F; optional devices (T-120 or monitoring stations) are available to
prevent this problem. Should the unit be used for batch flow operations, it can
be turned ON and OFF manually. Make sure the unit is allowed to warm
up for at least 3 minutes before use, and make sure the unit is turned OFF
after each session.
5) Do not allow the flow rate to exceed the maximum rated capacity.
6) DO NOT electrically cycle the UV unit more than 3 ON/OFF cycles in a 24hour period. Cycling more than this will reduce End-Of-Life (EOL) output
and/or cause premature lamp failure.
NOTE: DO NOT look at the lighted blue UV lamps. DO NOT operate the UV lamps outside of the
UV treatment chamber. EXPOSURE CAN SEVERELY BURN AND DAMAGE EYES AND SKIN!

4. SET 100% LEVEL potentiometer
By turning this control, the percentage value reported is modified. This control
is normally set each time UV lamps are replaced. The user then may set the
irradiance value detected to 100%. To properly operate this control, the UV
Display UNITS button (3) must be set to show irradiance value in % units.
20
5. UV ALARM SET button

Displays the user-set alarm level in % value under which the system will
trigger the low level UV alarm protocol. The alarm level % is displayed only
while this button is pressed.
6. SET ALARM LEVEL potentiometer
By turning this control, the user-set alarm level in % value under which the
system will trigger the low level UV alarm protocol is modified.
7. Temperature F or C LEDs
These LED indicators are OFF during unattended operation. When the
TEMPERATURE DISPLAY button (2) is pressed, one of these two LEDs will
turn ON, indicating the units of the temperature value displayed in the LCD.
The temperature units (F or C) are selected by a small switch located on the
electronic board. The installer selects the switch during system installation.
8. UV IRRADIANCE % or W/cm2 LEDs
Only one of these two LEDs is ON during unattended operation, indicating
the value selected to report UV radiation status by the sensor (% or W/cm2).
By pressing the UV DISPLAY UNITS button (3) and toggling between the two
positions (one of the LEDs will be ON while the other will be OFF), the user
can select to display UV irradiance level between absolute irradiance values
(W/cm2) or in percentage (%). In addition, when pressing the UV ALARM
SET button (5) to set the alarm level, the % LED is ON and the W/cm2 is
OFF, indicating that the alarm level is set only in percentage value.
9. UV IRRADIANCE LOW LED
When the UV radiation levels fall under the alarm pre-set level, the low level
UV alarm protocol is activated. This will cause the LED to blink intermittently
along with activation of a 2kHz sound for 30 seconds. In addition, the DPDT
relay contact will be triggered.
10. HIGH TEMPERATURE LED
Ultraviolet lamps produce heat. The heat within the treatment chamber must
be dissipated to prevent damage to the UV unit and water system. Sealing
materials, gaskets, O-rings, compression nuts, lamp sockets, UV lamps and
the UV sensor can be damaged due to excessive heat. Under normal
operating conditions, the water flow is sufficient to remove the heat generated
by the lamp.
The Detector has a built-in temperature monitoring circuit. When the
temperature of the treatment chamber exceeds 120F, the UV lamps will
automatically switch OFF, preventing overheating conditions. When the
water temperature drops below 100F, the UV lamps will re-energize.
A SPDT contact is available for customer interfacing during a High
Temperature Condition. The contact will enable interfacing into a central
monitoring system (PLC, DCS, etc). During the high temperature fault
condition, the High Temperature LED will illuminate.

UV PROCEDURE FOR SETTING THE MONITORING STATION

1.
Gradually start the normal flow rate.
2.
Bring the unit up to normal operating pressure and temperature.
3.
Turn on the UV lamps wait a minimum of 15 minutes.
4.
First set the SET 100% LEVEL. See below for instructions.
5.
Then set the Low UV ALARM LEVEL. See below for instructions.
Setting the SET 100% LEVEL

The SET 100% LEVEL potentiometer (4) is protected with a plastic screw and
O-ring set.
1) First, set the UV DISPLAY UNITS button (3) to show the irradiance value
in % units.
2) Unscrew and remove the plastic screw and O-ring set.
3) Use a 2 mm (5/64) flat blade jewelers screwdriver adjusting the SET
100% LEVEL potentiometer to 100%. This control is to be readjusted
each time the UV lamps are replaced and after first 100 hours of
operation.
4) Replace and tighten the plastic screw and O-ring set into place after
setting the SET 100% LEVEL. Failure to do so may cause damage to the
monitoring system.
Setting Low UV ALARM LEVEL:

The SET ALARM LEVEL potentiometer (6) is protected with a plastic screw
and O-ring set.
1) First, set 100% level as described above.
2) Unscrew and remove the plastic screw and O-ring set.
3) Press and hold UV ALARM SET button (5) and use a 2mm (5/64) flat
blade jewelers screwdriver to adjust the SET ALARM LEVEL
potentiometer in %. Set the alarm level at 80%.
4) Replace and tighten the plastic screw and O-ring set into place after
setting the SET ALARM LEVEL. Failure to do so may cause damage to
the monitoring system.
NOTE: The temperature and transmission play a major role when monitoring UV intensity output in a
reactor. Therefore the set-up procedure should be carried out when the equipment is operating in a
worse case condition. The set-up of the SET 100% LEVEL and SET ALARM LEVEL should be
completed at the lowest possible water transmission and/or temperature scenario. This will prevent
you from experiencing premature alarm status if and when the feed water parameters change.
If the alarm level needs to be set at a certain absolute irradiance value, calculate this value as a
percentage with respect to the 100% level selected. As long as the SET 100% LEVEL
potentiometer (4) and the SET ALARM LEVEL potentiometer (6) are not set, the alarm value will not
be modified.
22
AQUALOGIC 2000 MONITORING SYSTEM:

The Aqualogic 2000 has the capability to display continuously the level of irradiance
detected by the sensor in irradiance units (W/cm2) or in percentage value (%). Reading
can be measured and displaced in either Absolute (0-5000W/cm2 ) or Relative (0-100%)
by the DIPswitch SW7-8.
In addition, the Aqualogic 2000 also reports the current temperature value of the water
either in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit by the DIPswitch SW7-6
PROCEDURE FOR SETTING THE AQUALOGIC 2000

1)
Gradually start the normal flow rate.
2)
Bring the unit up to normal operating pressure and temperature.
3)
Turn on the UV lamps wait a minimum of 15 minutes.

1. Running Time Indicator

The running time Indicator will illuminate when the elapsed time of the unit is
displayed on the Cycle/Hour display. Aqualogic controls are equipped with a
re-settable running time meter and are used to determine the number of hours
on the equipment and for maintenance. It is very important to record the
running time hours and lamp maintenance.
2. Cycle and Hour Display
The digital display alternates between the number of times the lamps have
been cycled ON and OFF and the elapsed running time of the unit.
3. Cycle Mode Indicator
The Cycle Mode Indicator will illuminate when the number of cycles is
displayed on the Cycle/Hour display. The cycle counter displays the number
of times that the lamps have been turned OFF and ON. This counter aids
in the lamp maintenance. The cycle counter is reset to zero when the running
time counter is set to zero.
4. 5.
UV Lamp Operational Display

To verify the status of the UV lamps, the LED display gives the operator a
visual indication of the lamp status. When the UV lamp is ON, the LED will
illuminate GREEN, and when OFF, the indication will be RED.
6. Lamp Operational Indicator

When all lamps are operating properly, the individual lamp LEDs will be green
and the Lamp Operational Indicator will be illuminated.
During any fault
conditions, this indicator lamp will not illuminate.
7. Low UV Intensity LED
The Detector is a sensing probe place in the treatment chamber that monitors
the relative change in lamp output through the fluid as detected by the UV
sensor at the endplate of the UV treatment chamber. As time passes, the
sensor reading will decline as the lamps age, quartz sleeves foul, temperature
changes in the fluid, or if there are changes in the fluid quality. The Low UV
Intensity LED display will illuminate when 80% of the set value has been
reached.
8. UV Intensity and Temperature Display
The digital display will indicate the UV intensity in relative (0-100%) or
absolute (0-5000W/cm) mode and fluid temperature.
To display
temperature, the temperature switch must be activated.
9. High Temperature/Low Temperature Shutdown Indicator
Ultraviolet lamps produce heat. The heat within the chamber must be
dissipated to prevent damage to the UV unit and water system. Sealing
materials, gaskets, O-rings, compression nuts, lamp sockets, UV lamps and
the UV sensor can be damaged due to excessive heat. Under normal
operating conditions, the water flow is sufficient to remove the heat generated
by the lamp.
Aqualogic units have a temperature circuit mounted on the endplate or on the
inlet nozzle of the treatment chamber. When the temperature of the treatment
chamber exceeds 120F, the UV lamps will automatically switch OFF,
24
preventing overheating conditions. When the water temperature drops below

100F, the UV lamps will re-energize.
A SPDT contact is available for customer interfacing during a High
Temperature Condition. The contact will enable interfacing into a central
monitoring system (PLC, DCS, etc). During the high temperature fault
condition, the High Temperature LED will illuminate.
10. Lamp Out Alert Indicator
For remote monitoring of the UV lamp status, the Lamp Out Alert feature is
available. When one or more lamps are out, a SPDT contact is available for
customer interfacing during Lamp Out condition. The contact will enable
interfacing into a central monitoring system (PLC, DCS, etc).
During the lamp out fault condition, the Lamp Out Alert indicator lamp will
illuminate RED. The Lamp Out Alert is equipped with a 30 second time delay.
During the first 30 seconds of operation, the circuit will ignore any lamp out
condition. The delay allows time for the proper warm up of the lamps and
prevents false alarm conditions.
Depending upon the system design, a lamp(s) out condition may require an
immediate action. In single or multiple lamp units, if one or more lamps are
out, the water may not get treated properly. This will be based upon sizing of
the equipment and if any redundancy is built into the system. Therefore, in a
Lamp Out condition, the action of the operator will be based upon the overall
design.
Setting the SET 100% LEVEL

1) To set the SET 100% LEVEL, the initial value (100%) should be set.
2) The unit should be operating under normal operating conditions (flow,
temperature) with new lamps and clean quartz sleeves.
3) The Aqualogic 2000 should be set to read the RELATIVE mode by
switching DIPswitch SW7-8 to the CLOSED position.
4) The SW3 button then should be pressed. A beep should be heard which
indicates that the 100% intensity has been set into the memory.
Switching the DIPswitch SW7-8 into the OPEN position will register the
100% intensity value in W/cm2.
Setting Low UV Alarm Level:

1) DIPswitch SW7-1 sets the low UV ALARM SET point.
2) For HX units, DIP switch SW-7 should be set to the CLOSED position
(80%).
3) When the relative UV level indicates 80% (or when 80% of the 100% level
of the absolute intensity), the LOW-level alarm lamp will illuminate RED
and the audio alarm will sound for 30 seconds.
The UV ALARM SET point must be set with all UV lamps operating.
NOTE: Resetting the 100% value must be performed after the first 100 hours of operation on new
UV lamps, both at the time of installation and each time the UV lamps are replaced.

25
Setting the Aqualogic 2000 Status Display Board:

Adjust the dipswitches, per system requirements.
10
1) SW-5 Display Primary Time/Cycle
There are two elapsed clock memories in the system. One is the elapsed
time that can be reset with SW-2 and the total accumulated time. The
SW-5 switch allows the user to display the total accumulated operational
hours and cycles on the unit. Reinitializing the system erases the total
accumulated operational and cycle memory.
2) SW-3 Set UV Sensor 0 & 100%
The SW-3 sets the UV intensity 100% set point. When pressed, the
relative intensity is set into the memory; this is the 100% set point. When
80% of the value is reached, the low UV intensity indicator is activated.
3) SW-2 Reset Time/Cycle Counter

The SW-2 switch resets the total elapsed time and cycle counter to zero.
This switch is used when the lamps are replaced.

Preventative Maintenance
The following provides users of Aquafine UV treatment equipment with recommendations
and procedures that will maximize the efficiency, consistency, reliability, and longevity of
the equipment. Once the equipment is properly installed and fully operational, this will
provide time-oriented guidelines for:
1) Performance monitoring,
2) Recognizing the need for time based preventive measures,
3) Organized analysis of performance, based on your particular operational
environment.
4) Establishing optimum parameters for periodic replacement of vital
components.
Keep in mind that operating conditions can differ substantially for identical UV modelseven within the same building-due to such variables as:
Water quality (tap water, DI water, pH level, chemical content, solids, etc.)
Entering water temperature
Flow rate (high, low or constant)
Process status (continuous, intermittent)
Because of these variables, each UV unit may have to be serviced differently. For
instance, those with continuous high flow, or with lower quality water require more
frequent cleaning of the quartz tubes than those exposed to cleaner water, lower flow
rates and/or intermittent usage.
Regarding UV lamp replacement, the rule is to replace the lamps every 9,000
hours or every 24 months, whichever comes first. This means that the units,
which are continuously used for 24 hours a day, will reach 9,000 hour limit within
375 days, or slightly over 1 year.

SAFETY REQUIREMENTS
TO BE OBSERVED AT ALL TIMES
28
CAUTION!
The most important consideration for proper installation, operation and maintenance of any
piece of equipment is operator safety. The following caution statements directly relate to
operator safety. Please review with all applicable personnel to ensure continuous
compliance.
The following safety requirements are mandatory. Failure to carefully follow them can
cause injury to the operator and damage to the UV unit.
A) Never look at lighted blue ultraviolet lamps. Never operate the ultraviolet
lamps outside the UV Disinfection Chamber. UV lamp exposure can severely
burn and damage eyes and skin.
B) Properly ground the UV Disinfection unit. Failure to properly ground the unit can
result in severe electric shock hazard.
C) Provide watertight piping and compression nut seals. Failure to do so can

cause damage to electrical components, as well as create an electrical hazard
to operating personnel.
D) Disconnect power before servicing unit. The UV lamps and electrical
components are operated with high voltage electrical power. Do not attempt
to service the UV treatment unit without first disconnecting power to the unit.
Shut off the source power at the equipments main panel breaker and use
appropriate tag-out or lockout procedures to prevent accidental power-up by
other personnel. Only properly qualified service personnel should perform service.
E) Remove pressure before servicing units. The UV unit has components under
pressure. Before completing any service, the pressure should be removed.
Operating Conditions:
Never operate the unit for more than 30 minutes without flow of water.
Elevated water temperatures can be dangerous and damaging to the unit.
Do not exceed three (3) START/STOP cycles per 24-hour period; otherwise
lamp filaments will be subjected to excessive thermal stress, which could cause
premature failure.
Unit Maintenance:
1) Depending on the environment of the installation, clean the exterior
surfaces of the UV treatment chamber, and electrical enclosure. The
frequency of cleaning will be dependent upon the environmental
condition. In some cases, it may be necessary to clean the unit from once
a month to yearly.
2) Use a soft cloth with soap and water, or any commercial stainless steel
cleaner.
3) Avoid scratching the Lexan windows.
4) Interior of the electrical cabinet should be inspected for debris. Any dirt,
dust or external material should be removed with a vacuum. The
electrical terminal should be cleaned with a commercial electrical contact
cleaner.
29
Quartz Sleeves Maintenance:

As water passes through the UV treatment unit, minerals, debris and other matter
in the water will settle and deposit onto the quartz sleeves. This will impair the
ability of the ultraviolet rays to penetrate into the water. Therefore, it is imperative
to determine a cleaning schedule for the quartz sleeves. The frequency will
depend on the specific type of water being processed, i.e. its turbidity, its flow
rate, and on the duty cycle, i.e. 24 hour continuous or intermittent at planned or
random intervals. Replacement of the quartz sleeves should be completed every 2
years of operation. For replacing, follow the installation procedure on page 16.
Inspect the quartz sleeves one month after the first installation for a good
indication of the degree of contamination you can expect over subsequent longer
periods. Then you will be able to determine a reasonable time schedule for
periodic cleaning.
If the water has been conditioned through deionization, reverse osmosis or
distillation, the cleaning frequency can be set at once per year. If clear, fresh
water is used, the cleaning frequency should be anywhere from once every thirty
days to once every six months. With super clean water, this can even be
extended further. Determine cleaning frequency by visually inspecting any one
quartz sleeve to see how much debris or film has settled on the outside of it.
Clean In Place (CIP) cleaning is sometimes effective in the removal of debris from
the sleeves. A test should be completed to determine the effectiveness of a CIP
cleaning. After a chemical CIP has been completed, the quartz sleeves should be
visually inspected for the removal of material. If CIP cleaning is not effective, then
a manual cleaning or replacement of the sleeves will be required
Cleaning the Quartz Sleeves:
Visually inspect a quartz sleeve thirty days after use to see if any debris or
film has settled on the outside. If dirty, use the following procedures.
Should this be insufficient, they should be replaced. To place an order,
please contact your local Aquafine representative or call customer service.

Remove the UV lamps from inside the quartz sleeves.
Using the appropriate compression nut tool, loosen the compression
nuts and carefully remove the quartz sleeves.
Wash the quartz sleeves with mild soap and water. Rinse in clean, hot
water.
The Detector window should be cleaned during quartz sleeve
cleaning and maintenance. See page 35.
NOTE: Failure to perform quartz sleeve cleaning maintenance may cause inadequate UV treatment
and low sensor values. The quartz sleeves maintenance is very important to the overall operation of
the equipment. If the quartz sleeves are not properly maintained, the UV efficiency will be reduced.
30
Checking for Leaks:

To ensure there are no leaks, a visual inspection of the treatment chamber should
be made. The source of any leaking should be found and repaired. Follow the
installation procedures of the quartz sleeves and UV lamps for replacing the O-ring. See
pages 16 thru 17.
Visually check the bottom pans at both ends of the cylinder for dripping water. If a
leak is detected, follow this procedure:
1) Shut off all electrical power. Shut off source power at the facilities main
panel and use appropriate tag-out safety procedures to prevent accidental
power-up by other personnel.
2) Remove the socket cover from the leaking end.
3) Determine whether the leak comes from one or more of the lamp socket
nipples (leaking quartz tube), or from the main end plate gasket.
IF A QUARTZ TUBE IS LEAKING:
4. Release the pressure. Open the drain valve connected to the bottom
fitting of the cylinder and drain fluid from the cylinder until the water
level is below the leaking tube.
5. Unscrew the lamp socket and lamp from the leaking nut.
6. Unscrew the compression nut counterclockwise (CCW) and remove it
and its O-ring from the end of the quartz tube. Be sure not to pull the
quartz tube out of the opposite compression nut, or you may have to
reassemble all items on that side as well.
7. Place a new O-ring into the leaking compression nut and reassemble
all parts mentioned above in the reverse order. Refill the tank to test
all seals before restoring power.
IF THE ENDPLATE SEAL IS LEAKING:
Do not use any gasket compounds and make sure the gasket and all seal
surfaces are clean before reassembling.

Inspection for Lamp Operation Lamp-Out Alert:

A visual check of the LED display should be made. The LED will be GREEN
when the lamp is ON.
Action: If one or more lamps are not operating, the Lamp Out Alert LED will
illuminate RED and audio alarm will sound for 30 seconds and then will stop.
Replacing the Ultraviolet Lamps:

The Colorguard UV lamps are rated for 9,000 hours or every 24 months,
whichever comes first. This means that the units, if continuously used for 24
hours a day, will reach 9,000-hour limit within 375 days, or slightly over 1 year.
After this time, the lamp glass will photo chemically change and no longer allow
sufficient 254-N.M. short-wave UV, the germicidal ray of the lamp, through the
glass to effectively kill bacteria.

NOTE: The Lamp Out Alert alarm and function will not activate for the first 30 seconds of operation
after the lamps have been turned ON.
NOTE: Failure to replace the ultraviolet lamps on a timely basis of at least once every 9,000 hours
may cause the equipment to fail. With intermittent use, in no case should the ultraviolet lamp be
used for more than 24 months without replacement, regardless of the number of hours of operation,
due to normal operational degradation of the UV lamp.
32
Inspecting the Lamp Socket:

When replacing lamps, inspect the lamp socket contacts and related hardware.
They should be inspected for corrosion of the metal contact, deterioration of the
material or burning.
1) Be sure all power to the equipment is disconnected.
2) Inspect the condition of the socket retainer caps. If they show signs of
cracking or any chemical degradation, they should be replaced.
3) Inspect the condition of the lamp socket (resilient boot) and the metal
lamp contact imbedded in the end with the lip seal.
4) Metal contacts must be clean, free of corrosion and straight.
5) Resilient boots must be clean, free of cracks and free of any chemical
degradation.
6) Lip seals must be pliable, unbroken and fit snugly over the ceramic lamp
sockets.
7) The wires must be clean, with all insulation intact and no signs of
brittleness.
In case any of these descriptions are not prevalent, replace the entire lamp socket
assembly.
Ballast Replacement:
Ballast replacement is not part of the UV units routine maintenance. However, in
the event that the ballast needs to be replaced, the following procedure should be
followed:
1) Power down the UV unit by returning the unit isolator switch, if installed, to
the OFF position. If not, ensure that the power to the unit is removed by
opening the switch or breaker upstream of the UV unit.
2) Locate the old ballast to be replaced. Refer to the electrical diagram, if
necessary.
3) Isolate the old ballast from the rest of the system by disconnecting the
ballast connector.
4) Remove and discard the old or defective ballast.
5) Install the new ballast.
6) Reconnect the ballast connector(s).
7) Restore the power to the UV unit by turning the unit isolator switch to the
ON position or by closing the upstream switch or breaker.
8) Turn the power ON and resume operation. Whenever new lamps have
been installed, follow all resetting instructions.
33
Cleaning the Detector Window:

1) Shut off the flow and release the pressure.
2) Shut off all power to the UV unit.
3) Remove the cable by twisting the connector terminal counterclockwise.
The connector will slide off.
4) Unscrew the Detector.
5) Use a lint-free cloth with alcohol and very carefully wipe the lens face on
the front of the Detector.
6) Replace the Detector and the cable.
7) Turn the power ON and resume operation.
Measuring Performance:
Every UV treatment unit should be tested periodically to verify actual efficiency.
Regardless of the intended application or any optional equipment that may have
been provided with your UV unit, the most accurate and dependable procedure is
to conduct post-UV sample analysis in accordance with standard testing methods.
For obtaining proper water samples, see page 28.
LED Display Maintenance:

If an LED bulb does not light after you replace a UV lamp, you need to verify the
electrical output of the ballast connected to that specific UV lamp. Testing the
ballast open circuit voltage does this. This should be done by an electrician or
qualified facilities personnel. Follow these recommended procedures:
1) Turn the power to the UV unit OFF.
2) Remove the socket cover.
3) Identify the faulty UV lamp, which corresponds to the number on the LED
display.
4) Remove the lamp socket(s) from the faulty UV lamp base.
5) Use a voltmeter and set an operating range at >700 VAC.
6) Measure the open circuit voltage.

Connect the voltmeter across the
7) Turn the power to the UV unit ON.

8) Record the reading.
9) Turn the power to the UV unit OFF.
10) The open circuit voltage for the ballasts is 800V AC max.
NOTE: If the voltage reading is zero, or a number above or below the acceptable range, this
indicates a ballast fault and the ballast connected to the faulty UV lamp must now be replaced.
NOTE: If the voltage reading is within the acceptable range, but the LED does not light, the LED
board has failed and needs to be replaced.

Each of the ballasts have an overheat

circuit. When the ballast temperature
reaches the preset temperature, the
ballast automatically shuts OFF. When
the ballast cools down, the ballast will
reenergize. Excessive continuous heat will
destroy the ballast.
The LED board may be defective,
indicating false lamp-out.
See factory representative
As the UV lamps age, the lamps solarize.
After a normal operation of 9,000 hours,
the lamps should be replaced. Please
note that the lamps will remain lit for many
hours after 9,000 hours, but the UV output
will decline.
In raw water applications (non RO/DI),
minerals or debris will attach to the quartz
sleeves. The material will block the
transmission of the UV energy into the
water. The quartz sleeves must be
replaced or cleaned. CIP does not always
properly clean the quartz sleeves.
Any changes in the water transmission or
quality, will cause the sensor reading to
change. In some applications where the
water is blended, the transmission
properties can change.
UV output of the lamps is sensitive to
temperature. If the UV sensor is set with a
water temperature of 70o F and the
operational temperature is 50o F, the
sensor reading will be less. The relative
output of the UV sensor should be set to
the worst case operating temperature.
If water is present in the quartz sleeve, the
leak should be repaired immediately.
Water can cause the lamp socket to arc,
corrosion on the lamp pins, burning of the
lamp sockets and damage to the ballast
and LED components.
The ballast controls the current to the
lamps. The lamps current should be
measured to determine if the current is
within specification. The ballast should
produce 0.8 Amps to each lamp.

Systems in which the UV is turned ON
and OFF frequently (more than 3X) will
cause lamp filament damages.
Low equipment power will cause damage
to the electrical equipment. The electrical
power should be within 5% of the
nameplate voltage. Small transformers
may be required to boost low voltages.
Vibration can cause the electrical
connections to become loose. The
connections should be inspected and
repaired if damaged.
Excessive heat from no flow conditions
can damage the lamps.
Vibration from water hammer, pumps
and unsupported piping can cause excess
stress to the lamp filament and
equipment.
Inspect the compression nut and O-ring to
insure that they are installed properly.
System pressure greater than the design
pressure will cause the sealing material to
fail.
The gasket and O-rings should be
inspected
for
deterioration.
These
materials can be subjected to UV, ozone
and heat, which is damaging to the
material.
O-rings, which are not compressed
properly, will cause the quartz sleeves to
leak. Reinstall and replace the O-ring.
O-ring and gasket material that are
damaged due to UV, ozone and physical
damage, will result in leaking. The
material should be changed.
Water hammer pressure can be 5 -10X
higher than the static pressure of a water
system. Water hammer can cause
leaking and breakage to the quartz
sleeves.
The ends of the sleeves should be
inspected for cracks and chips. Any
broken sleeves should be replaced.
If the unit is operating with compression
nuts manufactured with CPVC (gray
plastic) and has been exposed to elevated
temperatures, the compression nut may
be damaged. Excessive heat can distort
the plastic material, resulting in a loss in
compression of the O-ring seal. Change
compression nuts to stainless steel.

Obtaining Proper Water Samples:

Our experience has shown that the vast majority of unsatisfactory post-UV
bacteriological samples are directly related to improper sample-taking techniques.
There are a variety of commercial sample collection apparatuses available.
Should you choose one, be sure to follow the manufacturers recommended
procedures.
Optional sample unit fittings on both the intake and discharge UV chamber flange
risers can be provided. We recommend you use these fittings to collect before
and after UV water samples to eliminate the possibility of contamination by
nearby piping, fittings, etc.
We recommend you select a valve with a discharge orifice no larger than
(6mm).
Sampling Procedures:
1) Prior to taking the water sample, have on hand an adequate supply of
sterile bottles. These should be obtained from a source laboratory
and should have been autoclaved and contained within a plastic outer
wrapping.
2) The inside diameter of a sample valve must not exceed (6mm) to
ensure proper velocity. Prior to taking the sample, it is imperative that
the test sample valve be fully opened under full pressure for a full
three and a half minutes. Temporary tubing or some other material
may be used to direct the water to a container or drain to avoid
unnecessary spillage.
3) After the valve has been left fully open for three and a half minutes,
reduce the flow to a reasonable stream of water (not less than 50% of
full flow). Continue flowing to drain 3 additional minutes.
4) Remove any temporary tubing used for flow diversion.
5) Open the sterile bottle. Holding the cap in a down position, the
operator should then hold his breath while taking the sample so as to
avoid atmospheric contamination of the sample. The operator must
also not allow any fingers to touch the inside of the cap or neck of the
bottle.
6) After the water sample has been taken, the cap should be
immediately secured on the sample container.
7) The sample container should be labeled and placed in a plastic
wrapping and must be taken to the laboratory for plating as soon as
possible. Processing should begin within 3 hours of sample collection
and should comply with accepted standard methods.
