PRE-INSTALLATION INSPECTION
Quartz Sleeve and UV Lamp Inspection –
When Packed in Tube
SMART UV® Disinfection Sterilizers are packaged
with their quartz sleeve assembly pre-assembled
inside the UV vessel.
The UV lamp is packaged separately in a corrugated
tube.
The Quartz Sleeve Assembly must be removed from
the UV vessel and inspected for damage prior to
installation. Extreme care must be used while this
procedure is being performed.
Note: DO NOT handle the lamp or quartz sleeve with
bare hands. Your hands can deposit oils on the quartz
sleeve and lamp that will decrease the eciency of
UV disinfection.
1. Carefully unpack the UV lamp from its corrugated
packing tube and inspect for damage including
broken glass, cracks, chips, fractures and pin
holes. If damage has occurred please contact the
place of original purchase immediately.
NOTE: Save the corrugated lamp packaging after
unpacking the UV lamp. Storing the lamp and/or
quartz sleeve in this packaging while performing
maintenance on the UV system will protect these
components from damage or fouling when outside of
the vessel.
2. After inspection, reassemble the quartz sleeve
back into the UV vessel. Perform the Mandatory
Leak Test (see page 12).
3. Inspect all other UV system components (power
supply, UV vessel unions and necessary mounting
clamps) for damage.
After receipt and inspection of the unit, if broken
glass is found (including cracks, chips, pin holes
and hair line fractures of any kind) please contact
the place of original purchase immediately for
replacements.
