GB - SuperFish Koi Pro UVC 40 Watt 40,000 L/ 75 Watt 75,000 L

The Koi Pro UVC is a professional UVC clarier for large ponds. It ensures a clear
pond with healthy sh. The UV lamp produces ultraviolet light with a wavelength of
exactly 254 nm. The UV-C radiation kills almost all harmful bacteria, viruses and
fungi and keeps algae growth under control.

Safety

• Read this manual carefully before usage.

• Suitable for outdoor usage.

• This UVC should be only used for cleaning pond water and the water temperature should not
exceed 35°C. It should never be used for other liquids or chemicals.

• This UVC device produces harmful radiation, direct contact may be dangerous for eyes and skin.

• Never look at a burning UV lamp, switch of the power before any maintenance and when

opening the UVC clarier

• The device may only be connected to an electrical installation that meets the legal requirements.

A GFCI (30 mA) and earthed sockets are required. If in doubt always use a certied electrician to

install.

• Ensure voltage shown on the label match to the mains supply voltage.

• The UVC plug may only be connected to an earthed wall socket. Ensure that water cannot reach
the socket (g. A).

• The UVC device, the electronic ballast and the plug must be installed in a dry place, spatter-free
and at least 2 meters away from the pond.

• Take great care using electricity in combination with water, do not operate with wet hands or plug

is wet. Never operate the clarier if there are people in the water.

• In the event of damage to the unit, quarts glass, cord or plug, do not use the unit and return the
unit to your dealer for repair or recycling.

• Unplug or switch o all appliances in the pond before carrying out maintenance. Be aware that

the lamp can remain hot for up to 10 minutes after being disconnected.

• The UVC device may only be connected if there is a sucient ow of water.

• The UVC device can withstand a maximum pressure of 3 bar.

• This appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been
given supervision or instructions concerning the use of the appliance in a safe way and
understand the hazards involved. Children may not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user
maintenance shall not be done by children without supervision.

Grounding the UVC device

• The grounding pin is located on the plastic part of the UVC on the inlet side.

• Ground the UVC device in the order shown below and in gure B.

• Slide the eye of the earthing cable (A) over the grounding pin (B) that is attached onto the
housing (C).

• Slide the rst toothed washer (D) over the grounding pin.

• Tighten the hexagon nut (E) onto the grounding pin.

• Slide the second toothed washer (D) over the grounding pin.

• Clip the strain relief clip (F) around the grounding cable approx. 10 cm from the metal eye (A).

• Slide the eye of the strain relief clip (F) over the grounding pin so that the grounding cable makes
a loop.

• Tighten the locknut (G) on the grounding pin (tighten carefully).

Installation (gures C-D-E)

The UVC device must be placed in a dry, well-ventilated area, not exposed to direct sunlight. The

best position is (if possible) behind the lter, take the accessibility for maintenance in mind.

• Carefully unpack the UV lamp (J) and insert the lamp into the lamp holder (L).

• Carefully slide the lamp and lamp holder into the quartz glass (K). Make sure that the micro­switch is in the recess. The micro-switch is an extra security, it ensures that the UV lamp is always

switched o automatically when disassembling (in case you forgot to switch o the UV lamp).

• Make sure the O-ring (M) is placed in the right position.

• Tighten the lock nut (H) hand-tight onto the housing (C).

• Mount the pipe clamps (N) at the location where the UVC device should hang (take the length of
the cables into account).

• Mount the electronic ballast (P) at the desired location (take the length of the cables into account).

• When using pond hoses or when using ø50 mm PVC pipes, cut o the Multi-step couplings (S) to
the correct size (g. C). Use the already mounted ø63 mm couplings for ø63 mm pipes (T).

• The Double Head input and Triple Head output connection makes the UVC device easy to install
(g. D). Mount the couplings with the lock nuts (R) to the desired connections and close the other
connections with the cover plates (Q) and lock nuts. Make sure the O-rings (M) are placed
correctly.

• Place the device in the pipe clamps (N) and glue the couplings between the pipes or connect the
pond hoses with hose clamps to the couplings.

• Ensure that there is an adequate ow of water through the device and then insert the plug into

the appropriate socket. The transparent connection couplings (S or T) show whether the UV-lamp
(J) is lit. Check the whole assembly for possible leaks.

• Switch o the UVC device by pulling the plug out of the socket.

Maintenance

• Always disconnect from the mains supply before carrying out any maintenance!

• The UVC device should be cleaned twice a year. As soon as algae growth increases, check the UVC
and UV-lamp and clean or exchange as needed.

• The lamp is hot, wait 10 minutes after switch o before opening the unit.

• Ensure that the water is drained out of the UVC device.

• Undo the lock nut (H) and remove the lamp holder (L) with the UV lamp (J) and the quartz glass
(K) from the housing. If necessary, you can also replace the lamp.

• Clean the quartz glass outer face with a soft cloth and SuperFish UVC Clean carefully.
After cleaning, rinse quartz glass with clean tap water thoroughly and check for damage.

• The inside of the housing (C) can be cleaned with a brush, do NOT use any chemicals.

• Carefully slide the quartz glass into the housing, at the other end of the housing there is a
support (U), ensure that the tip of the quartz glass is in the support. If necessary, unscrew the
locknut at the other end of the housing and guide the quarter glass into the support with your

ngers.

• Check that the O-ring (M) is positioned correctly.

• Replace the lamp and lamp holder and tighten the lock nut(s).

• To avoid overheating, unplug the device from mains when no water is owing through the UVC

device.

• In the winter season, when the system is not used, the UVC device should be removed to avoid
the risk of freezing.

• The UV-lamp should be replaced yearly. Although the lamp may still burn, it no longer emits
enough UV radiation (maximum 8000 operating hours).
