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. Contact your local dealer 
for scheduling this service. Your specific situation will vary 
the frequency time according to the water quality of the home 
or facility application. 
QUARTZ SLEEVE CLEANING PROCEDURES:
To clean the quartz sleeve, turn off  the water flow to the 
disinfection unit, turn power off, and at a separate faucet or 
valve relieve the water pressure from the UV. Then disconnect 
the electrical service to the lamp pins. Carefully remove the 
U.V. lamp. Loosen the end nut and remove the O-Ring and 
quartz sleeve. 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 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-Ring [PT8-544(1)] every time a 
quartz sleeve is cleaned or replaced. We recommend replacing 
the quartz sleeve once a year.
ELECTRICAL:
The PT series are furnished with 6’ line cord that will plug 
into a 110V outlet. Electrical receptacles must be properly 
grounded for safe operation. Improper grounding will void 
any warranty.
When possible use a separate breaker to minimize voltage 
fluctuations and avoid accidental shut off and a dedicated 
electrical circuit rated with GFI protection is recommended..  
After unit is installed and water is turned on, plug the unit into 
110V wall receptacle. View lamp operation through safety 
Sight Port lens. NOTE: Avoid exposing your eyes to U.V. 
light.
UV CONTROL BOX START UP PROCEDURE
Make sure the UV lamp is inserted per instructions into the 
quartz sleeve and UV chamber. Then plug the UV lamp into 
the lamp connector. Plug the electrical control box into a 
120volt wall plug outlet.
Upon start up the UV lamp Detector and Timer circuit 
board will perform a self  diagnostic test. When power is 
applied the UV lamp will go on and a circuit board output 
check is performed as follows:
