Safety Consideraons
Although your UV system has been manufactured to the highest safety standards, care must be
followed when operang and/or maintaining your system.
1. Before servicing this equipment, disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet.
2. Energy given o by the UV lamp is harmful to your eyes and skin. NEVER look directly
at an illuminated UV lamp without adequate eye protecon and always protect your skin
from direct exposure to the UV light.
3. For complete disinfecon, use ONLY genuine replacement parts.
4. Do not operate the unit if it has any damaged or missing components.
5. To avoid possible electrical shock, use only with a properly grounded electrical outlet.
6. Never perform any maintenance to the system unless you are comfortable in doing so.
Contact the manufacturer for service instrucons if required.
7. Do not use this system for any purpose other than what it was intended for. Misuse of this
system could potenally cause harm to the user or others.
8. Your system is intended to be installed indoors and away from leaking plumbing. DO NOT
plug the unit in if the system or any of the components are wet.
9. The disinfecon system should be directly installed into a ground fault circuit interrupter
(GFCI). If the use of an extension cord is required, the cord must be manufactured with a
minimum of 16 gauge wire and care should be taken to avoid potenal tripping hazards.
10. We recommend that a licensed plumber or cered technician install the system.
Before You Begin
The following will be needed for installing the UV system:
Tools
• Pipe cuer, hacksaw or other specialized tools required to cut into your exisng plumb-
ing (e.g. if you have PEX piping)
• Soldering tools (torch, ux, emery cloth and solder)
• Wrench (for ghtening ngs)
Other Materials
• Inlet/outlet connecons
• Teon™ tape

Water Quality Parameters
UV disinfecon is extremely eecve against microorganisms but only if the UV light can pass
through the water it needs to treat. This means that the quality of your water is very important
in order to ensure complete disinfecon.
Treated water should be tested for at the least the parameters listed below. If the water exceeds
the listed parameters PURETEC strongly recommends that appropriate pretreatment equipment
be installed (equipment required will depend on parameters being treated):
Hardness: <7 gpg (120 mg/L) – if hardness level is 7 gpg or slightly below the
quartz sleeve must be cleaned periodically in order to ensure e-
cient UV penetraon; if above the water must be soened.
Iron (Fe): <0.3 ppm (0.3 mg/L)
Manganese (Mn): <0.05 ppm (0.05 mg/L)
Turbidity: < 1 NTU
Tannins (organics): <0.1 ppm (0.1 mg/L)
UVT (transmiance): >85% (Please contact PURETEC if water has a UVT that is less than
80% for pre-treatment recommendaons)
You can have your water tested at a private analycal laboratory or by your local dealer. It is
always recommended to install pre-ltraon of at least 5 microns prior to a PURETEC UV disin-
fecon system.

System Sizing
All PURETEC UV systems are rated for a specic ow rate in water that meets the quality param-
eters on page 5. PLEASE NOTE that increasing the ow above this rang or disinfecng water
that does not meet the quality parameters will decrease the dose and therefore compromise the
microorganism inacvaon.
If you need to determine your maximum ow rate, you can ll a 1 gallon bucket with water and
me how long it takes to ll up. It is always beer to oversize your system then to undersize. For
example, if your pump delivers 8 gpm it is recommended to install any of the PURETEC 10 gpm
systems.
Locaon
For Point of Entry (POE) systems, choose a locaon where the main cold water line is accessible.
The system must be installed aer other water treatment equipment (soener or lters), but
before any branches (See Figure 1). For Point of Use (POU) systems, install the unit just before
the faucet. PURETEC recommends that a 5 micron lter be installed before the UV system for a
nal polishing step before the water is disinfected.
Figure 1. Recommended POE Installaon Locaon
To facilitate lamp removal, ensure there is enough space at the lamp connector end to safely
remove the UV lamp and/or quartz sleeve (See Figure 2).
The controller will require a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI or GFI) outlet and should be
mounted beside or above the reactor.
PLEASE NOTE: All PURETEC UV disinfecon systems are intended for indoor use only as they
should not be exposed to the elements.

Installaon
Step 1: The reactor can be installed either horizontally or
vercally using the clamps provided. Vercal installaon is
the preferred method with the inlet at the boom (lamp
connecon at the top) as it allows any air that may be in the
lines to be easily purged from the system.
Step 2: The use of a by-pass assembly is recommended as
it will allow you to isolate the UV reactor. This will allow for
easier access in case maintenance is required (See Figure 3).
Step 3: Use the supplied fasteners to mount the UV reac-
tor to wood or drywall. If mounng to an alternate material
you will need to purchase the proper corresponding fasten-
ers.
Step 4: For water supplies where the maximum ow rate
is unknown, a ow restrictor is recommended so that the
rated ow of your parcular PURETEC system is not exceed-
ed. The ow restrictor should be installed on the outlet port
of the reactor.
Step 5: It is recommended to have a licensed plumber
connect the UV reactor to the water supply and may be a
requirement depending on where you are located.
Figure 3. By-pass assembly
Note: Installaon of your PURETEC disinfecon systems shall
comply with applicable provincial/state & local regulaons.

Step 6: Once the system has been plumbed in, gently remove the
quartz sleeve from its packaging being careful not to touch the length
with your hands. The use of coon gloves is recommended for this
procedure as oils from the hands can leave residue on the sleeve and
lamp which can ulmately block the UV light from geng to the wa-
ter.
Carefully slide the sleeve into the reactor unl you can feel it hit the
opposite end of the reactor. Align the sleeve so it centered along the
length of the reactor, then gently push it in to lock it into the inter-
nal centering springs in the far side of the reactor. CAUTION: Pushing
too hard when the sleeve is not aligned can damage the centering
springs. Slide the o-ring onto the sleeve unl it is bued up against
the reactor.
Figure 4. Quartz
Sleeve Installaon
Step 7: Hand ghten the provided gland nut over the quartz sleeve onto the threaded end
of the reactor. It has a posive stop to prevent over-ghtening. A rm force may be required to
fully ghten the gland nut, but DO NOT USE TOOLS for this step. Insert the provided stainless
steel compression spring into the quartz sleeve. The spring works with the lamp and LUMI-Loc™
connector to create the proper lamp alignment. PLEASE NOTE: DO NOT install a UV lamp inside
the quartz sleeve without the sleeve spring in place.
Step 8: Install the UV sensor (PURETEC6.1 systems only). Align the at poron so it faces the
gland nut end and matches up with the half metal lip on the sensor port (see Figure 5). Insert the
sensor so it is fully seated and hand ghten the sensor nut.
Figure 5. UV Sensor Installaon Figure 6. IEP Connecon
Step 9: The reactor is now ready for water ow. When all plumbing connecons have been
completed, slowly turn on the water supply and check for leaks. Make sure the by-pass valves are
funconing properly and that the water is owing through the reactor. The most common leak
is from the o-ring not making a proper seal on the reactor. For new installaons, review steps 6
and 7. For older systems drain the reactor, remove the o-ring, dry it and reapply silicon grease.
Reinstall the o-ring ensuring that it is properly sealed against the reactor and check again for
leaks.
Step 10: Mount the controller to the wall so it is above or beside the reactor to ensure that no
moisture can deposit on any of the connecons (see Figure 1). Always mount the controller ver-
cally. For monitored systems, insert the sensor connector into the IEP port located on the right
side of the controller (Figure 6). For the sensor to be recognized by the controller, the controller
power must be plugged in last. Do not plug the controller power cord in before the last step.
