1.1 General Safety Instructions for UVC Disinfection Systems

AQUAFIDES UVC disinfection systems have been electrically and mechanically tested by the
manufacturer. Faulty operation or improper use of the systems will result in risks to:

• people, animals and artificial products that are supplied with some medium - typically water or
another liquid medium - that is not of sufficient microbiological quality.
• the health of the operating personnel:
damage to eyes and skin from UVC radiation.

All persons who are concerned with setting up, commissioning, operating, maintaining and
servicing the UVC disinfection system must be appropriately qualified and have thoroughly read
and understood the instruction manual. This is necessary for their own safety as well as to
prevent the UVC disinfection system from dispensing water that has not been disinfected.

Before working with the UVC disinfection system, it is imperative that the instruction
manual be read and understood. Installation, commissioning, operation and maintenance
of the UVC disinfection system may be carried out only by personnel authorized by
AQUAFIDES. These persons must have been appropriately trained by AQUAFIDES.

When working with an activated UVC disinfection system, a face shield must generally
be worn for the protection of the eyes and facial skin. These special shields are
available as accessories from AQUAFIDES. This face shield is for protection from
UVC radiation and glass splinters (from breakage of the quartz sleeves due to
incorrect handling).

When working with a UVC disinfection system, it is imperative that protective clothing
offering sufficient UV protection be worn. This special protective clothing is available as
an accessory from AQUAFIDES.

When working with a UVC disinfection system, it is imperative that protective gloves be
worn that offer sufficient UV protection as well as protection against cuts. These special
gloves are available as accessories from AQUAFIDES.

The disposal of scrap electronic and electrical goods, including UVC lamps, as household
waste is not permitted. Please dispose of these scrap goods in the proper fashion at the
locations or specialist companies designated for this.

Without the safety measures described above, damage to the eyes (painful inflammation,
comparable with injuries caused by welding) is possible within just a few seconds of eye
contact, even at a distance of several meters. Damage to the skin (severe sunburn) may
occur after a few minutes. These injuries do not usually become apparent until a few
hours afterwards.
In order to prevent accidents and possible consequent long-term disability resulting from
inappropriate use of AQUAFIDES UVC disinfection systems, all the relevant safety
precautions must be noted and observed. Incorrect handling of the UVC disinfection
system can lead to damage to health. Employ only trained and authorized personnel for
these tasks.

1.2 Safety Instructions for Electrical Systems and Equipment

Before working on the control cabinet or irradiation chamber, be certain to pull out the
power plug and wait at least 5 minutes until all components have discharged. This
applies to systems with power plug.

Before working on the control cabinet or irradiation chamber, be certain to turn off the
master switch and wait at least 5 minutes until all components have discharged.
This applies to systems with master switch.

Ensure that adequate potential equalization between the control cabinet and the
irradiation chamber has been established.

In order to prevent accidents and possible consequent long-term disability resulting from
inappropriate use of AQUAFIDES UVC disinfection systems, all the relevant safety
precautions must be noted and observed. Incorrect handling of the UVC disinfection
system can lead to damage to health. It goes without saying that all work on electrical
systems must be carried out only by professional electricians.

Any break in the potential equalization, either within or outside the machine, or
detachment of the protective conductor can result in the UVC disinfection system
becoming dangerous. Deliberate disconnection is not permitted and is grossly negligent.

Electric shock! Some electronic components must, in addition, also be discharged

separately after switching off the power supply to the UVC disinfection system
- see discharge points for this, or else open the control cabinet, at the earliest, 5 minutes
after switching off the power supply!
Warning of dangerous electric voltage. If the instructions are not followed, then severe
injuries, long-term disability, or death can occur.
Inspections, maintenance or repairs that must be carried out on the opened or
disassembled UVC disinfection system while it is switched on may be carried out only by
an authorized technician who has been trained accordingly by AQUAFIDES and who is
sufficiently familiar with the hazards associated with the work.

1.3 Safety Instructions for Mechanical Systems and Equipment

Before working on the irradiation chamber, be certain to pull out the power plug and
wait at least 5 minutes, until all components have discharged. This applies to systems
with power plug.

Before working on the irradiation chamber, be certain to turn off the master switch and
wait at least 5 minutes, until all components have discharged. This applies to systems
with master switch.

When working at the irradiation chamber, always wear a face shield for your safety. This
gives protection from UVC radiation and glass splinters.

When dismounting the UVC lamps, the quartz sleeves, and the sensor system, pay
attention that the UVC disinfection system is switched off and not pressurized, because
damaging UVC radiation is emitted through the quartz windows of the measuring window
tube and the UVC lamps. Protect both EYES and SKIN from this UVC radiation, or else
avoid exposure altogether.
Without the safety measures described above, damage to the eyes (painful inflammation,
comparable with injuries caused by welding) is possible within just a few seconds of eye
contact, even at a distance of several meters. Damage to the skin (severe sunburn) may
occur after a few minutes. These injuries do not usually become apparent until a few
hours afterwards.

During operation of the AQUAFIDES UVC disinfection system, the UVC lamp must not be
removed from the irradiation chamber, since this could result in severe damage to health.
Protect eyes and skin from UVC radiation or, preferably, avoid completely.

In order to prevent accidents and possible consequent long-term disability resulting from
inappropriate use of AQUAFIDES UVC disinfection systems, all the relevant safety
precautions must be noted and observed. Incorrect handling of the UVC disinfection
system can lead to damage to health.

Before cleaning, maintaining, repairing or replacing parts of the irradiation chamber, the
machine must be disconnected from all power supplies and the hydraulic system must be
depressurized. These tasks may be carried out only by appropriate technicians who are
acquainted with and understand the UVC disinfection system and its environment as a
complete system.

Do not open the irradiation chamber until it has been depressurized and emptied.

In the event of default, the customer is obligated to compensate for the default interest as well as all judicial and extra-judicial enforcement costs, in accordance with the Swiss Code of Obligations. Irrespective of the
allocation of the customer, incoming payments will be credited first to costs, then to interest already accrued and lastly to the outstanding principal, first to the oldest maturity date in each case.
7. The purchaser is not entitled to any rights of set off or retention, except when his counterclaims have been ascertained and recognized as uncontested in writing by AQUAFIDES or have been judicially established as
legally binding.

VII. Transfer of risk and receipt

1. Risk passes to the purchaser upon dispatch ex works, even if freight paid delivery has been agreed upon. If shipping is delayed as a result of circumstances for which the purchaser is responsible, then risk passes to the
purchaser from the date of readiness for shipping.
2. The route and type of transport will be specified by AQUAFIDES.
3. Delivered goods must be received by the purchaser even if they have minor defects. The purchaser must retrieve and accept the goods within 14 days after receipt of the notification of readiness for shipping.
4. If a defect-free work is not accepted by the purchaser in a timely manner, AQUAFIDES can, at the expense of the purchaser, commission a generally sworn, judicially certified expert to determine whether the work has
been produced in accordance with the contract. The purchaser is obligated to allow the expert to examine the work. If the purchaser refuses to allow the expert to examine it, the work shall be deemed to have been
produced in accordance with the contract.

VIII. Retention of Title

1. AQUAFIDES reserves ownership to the delivery item up until receipt of all payments including interest and the costs of any litigation.
2. The purchaser may neither pledge nor assign the delivery item as collateral. He must immediately notify AQUAFIDES of pledges, as well as attachments or other court orders by third parties.
3. The purchaser hereby assigns to AQUAFIDES all claims the purchaser has which arise from resales against other recipients or against third parties, regardless of whether or not the goods are resold after processing. He
agrees to note the assignment in his books.
4. The purchaser is prohibited from reaching agreements with his purchasers which might exclude or impair rights of AQUAFIDES in any manner whatsoever. The purchaser shall remain empowered to collect the claims
assigned to us, even after the assignment. However, our authorization to recover the claims independently shall remain unaffected hereby, as long as the purchaser does not comply with his payment obligations in
accordance with the order. AQUAFIDES can require the purchaser to inform us of the assigned claim and its debtor, to provide all details necessary for collection, to hand over the associated documents and to notify the
debtor of the assignment.
5. To the extent the goods delivered that are subject to retention of title are resold with other goods not belonging to AQUAFIDES, the claim of the purchaser against his purchaser shall be deemed to be assigned in the
amount of the delivery price agreed upon between AQUAFIDES and the original purchaser (including sales tax, interest and enforcement costs).
6. If the value of securities provided to AQUAFIDES exceeds the amount of the claims of AQUAFIDES, AQUAFIDES may at its discretion release the security upon request of the purchaser.

IX. Liability and defects

1. AQUAFIDES warrants for the period of one year after the time of delivery/performance that the delivery item/the services are free of manufacturing and material defects and/or have been competently executed and that
features warranted in writing are present. The purchaser must notify AQUAFIDES in writing of defects immediately, but no later that within one week after delivery/performance. Otherwise all warranty or other claims shall
be forfeited. Transport damages must be immediately documented upon delivery and reported to the delegated carrier and AQUAFIDES in writing. Notifications of defects must always be made in writing and itemized.
The warranty excludes damages and defects that are not our responsibility, in particular as a result of improper storage, assembly, operation or maintenance, unauthorized change to the delivery item, other customer-
related malfunctions or force majeure and natural wear and tear. The use or the installation of non-original components/replacement parts or components/replacement parts not approved by AQUAFIDES as well as the
maintenance of systems/system components by someone other than AQUAFIDES or by companies authorized by AQUAFIDES excludes any warranty or other claim.
If the purchaser is a consumer in terms of the Swiss Civil Code, the statutory provisions shall apply for liability for defects.
2. Specific AQUAFIDES terms of guarantee shall apply for UVC lamps, in contrast to the General Terms of Guarantee.
3. Warranty claims shall be fulfilled free of charge through remediation of defects or replacement of the goods/service, at our option. If the rectification of defects or subsequent delivery or replacement service fails after the
purchaser has set a reasonable grace period, the purchaser may demand a reduction of the price or rescission of the contract, at his option. AQUAFIDES shall only be liable for the breach of material contractual
obligations.
Reimbursement of consequential losses caused by a defect is excluded. We assume no liability for our customers for loss or damage arising in the course of transaction processing, unless it can be traced back to
intentional or grossly negligent conduction our part. The customer waives the defense of a completed legal transaction regardless of the legal grounds.

X. Law and withdrawal (impossibility, contractual adaptation)

1. If unforeseen events arise in terms of Item V., which substantially change the economic significance or the content of the delivery or service or substantially impact our operations, the content of the contract is to be suitably
adapted.
2. In the event of the imminent financial collapse of the purchaser (e.g. petition for the commencement of bankruptcy proceedings, opening of a composition proceeding, insolvency, default in payment), AQUAFIDES may
likewise withdraw from the contract with immediate effect.

XI. Data Protection

1. In accordance with the Data Protection Act, it should be noted that AQUAFIDES stores and digitally processes data of our customers. This data is only used for the purpose of legally performing tasks which are part of the
mutual business and contractual terms and conditions.

 03. General Description COMPACT T
Irradiation Systems

3.1 Description of the UVC Disinfection Process

3.1.1 Introduction

UVC disinfection is a purely physical process whose natural principle of action has been copied
from the sun.

The principal disinfecting effect of ultraviolet (UVC) rays on microorganisms arises from the
action of the energetic UVC light. The best effectiveness is achieved using UVC light with a
wavelength of 254 nm (nanometers). The DNA (genetic information carrier) of the bacteria and
viruses present in the water is damaged by the UVC rays. This results in inactivation of the
microorganisms and ultimately in cell death. Thus UVC light kills pathogenic microorganisms in
a matter of seconds and thereby prevents their further reproduction.

Drinking water was disinfected by means of UVC irradiation for the first time about 100 years
ago. However, as a result of the further development of chlor-alkali electrolysis, this process
was again supplanted by increasingly cheap methods of chlorination. Chlorination was thus the
most important method of sterilization for decades.

The formation of organohalogen compounds associated with chlorination in the presence of

dissolved organic matter together with the diminishing acceptance by the population of chemical
substances in the food chain led to the search for alternative disinfection processes.

Out of all the methods of disinfection, the disinfection of drinking water using ultraviolet light in
the UVC range comes closest to meeting the demand for untreated water because this process
does not alter the natural taste and mineral composition of the water.

So, from 1950, UVC disinfection began to be employed in Europe more frequently again, and
with excellent results, for public water supplies and in the food, drink and chemical industries as
well as for the production of ultrapure water. The reservations often expressed previously with
regard to UVC disinfection were no longer tenable, and so there was no longer anything
standing in the way of the increasing use of this process.

Version 0 / 06.10.2008 "03_Allgemeine Beschreibung_en" Page 1/11

3.1.2 Main Features of UVC Disinfection

• No addition of chemicals
• No environmental impact
• No changes in the substances in the water
• No formation of byproducts and residues; in particular, no creation of haloforms
• No adverse effects on smell and taste
• No concentrating of bacteria, viruses and parasites
• No formation of corrosive substances
• No risk of overdosage
• Simple utilization and minimal maintenance requirements
• Reliable sterilization
• High cost-effectiveness

3.1.3 Basic Physical Principles

UV rays are energetic electromagnetic rays that are present in the natural spectrum of the
radiation emanating from the sun.

3.1.4 Characteristics of UV Radiation

UV-A Radiation
Spontaneous and rapid tanning of the skin, which does not remain very long. The skin does
not build up a protective layer.

UV-B Radiation
Stronger than UV-A, responsible for the skin’s natural sun protection. The corneal layer
becomes thicker; the skin’s capacity for self-protection is increased by a factor of 5. As a
second protective mechanism, increasing amounts of melanin are produced and laid down
in the surface of the skin. The more that is laid down, the browner one becomes.

UV-C Radiation
If the energetic UVC rays impinge upon unprotected skin, severe burns can appear within a
short time. The formation of skin cancer is promoted (which is aggravated due to the lack of
protective ozone layer). In microorganisms, the genetic information carriers are damaged,
which results in cell death.

Version 0 / 06.10.2008 "03_Allgemeine Beschreibung_en" Page 2/11

3.1.5 Effect of UVC Light

The effect of UV light on microorganisms arises from the action of the energetic UVC light.

The DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid =

genetic information carrier) of the
bacteria and viruses present in the
water is damaged by the UV-C
rays. The light penetrates the cell
wall into a microorganism and
brings about a reaction with the
DNA of the cell, which causes the
carbon bonds in the molecules of
the microorganisms to break apart.
This results in inactivation of the
microorganisms within a matter of
seconds and ultimately in cell
death. Any further growth or
reproduction of organisms is thus
prevented.

3.1.7 Influencing Variables in UVC Disinfection
In order to achieve a reduction in microbes of the required standard, it is necessary to consider
the potential influencing variables at this point. In doing so, it can be seen that the correlation
between the effective UV dosage and the microorganisms present is of great significance in
reducing the number of microbes. The following factors must be taken into account:

3.1.8 Turbidity and Transmission

The turbidity of a medium specifies how much of the irradiating energy is scattered by
undissolved particles. The energy source shines in the visible as well as in the infrared range of
400 - 860 nm. The viewing angle is 90°. The UV transmission cannot be inferred from the
turbidity.

The UV transmission of a medium specifies the amount by which the irradiating energy is
reduced within a defined layer thickness. The UV transmission is measured at 254 nm. The UV
transmission includes all dissolved and undissolved constituents of the water that cause
attenuation of the irradiating energy.

The two methods of measurement differ fundamentally from one another:

Irradiation Systems

4.1 Choice of Location

It is essential that the following points are noted and observed when installing the
AQUAFIDES irradiation chamber for the UVC disinfection system:
▪ The installation space must be sufficiently large that the UVC lamps can be changed and the
protective quartz sleeves removed without difficulty, and that free access is provided to the
UVC sensor system, the air bleeding and drainage facilities, and the servicing area. Free
space must be maintained for these purposes - see under "Dimension Sheets" in this
instruction manual.
▪ Please take note of the options for installation of the irradiation chamber in section 4.3.
▪ The location of the control cabinet must be protected from the weather and be frost free (min.
5°C). A maximum temperature of 30°C should not be exceeded. Specially designed models
are necessary for use at higher and lower temperatures.
Rooms in which acids or the like are stored are not suitable.
▪ The AQUAFIDES UVC disinfection system cannot be set up outside.
If this is required, a special design is necessary.
▪ The UVC disinfection system is to be protected from direct sunlight.
▪ If condensation is present in the treatment room, the room must be equipped with a suitable
air dehumidifier.
▪ The UVC disinfection system must not be exposed to too much dust.
▪ The room should be easily accessible so as to ensure problem-free maintenance of the UVC
disinfection system (service friendly).
▪ The installation room must have openings (or such openings must be planned) suitable for
installing the UVC disinfection system. You can find the dimensions of the components under
“Dimension Sheets” in this instruction manual.
▪ A drain must be provided in the treatment room so that water that accumulates when the UVC
disinfection system is drained, bled, or flushed can be removed.
▪ The UVC disinfection system must be installed such that is protected from pressure blows,
vibrations, and the like. Support bracing must be provided for the irradiation chamber.
▪ Sufficient space must be available in the area of the UVC sensor system to dismount and
clean the UVC sensor and measuring window tube. The space available must also be
sufficient to allow the UVC sensor to be checked with the reference sensor without hindrance.
Care must be taken that the UVC sensor system is not unnecessarily exposed to water,
contamination, mechanical damage and the like.
▪ The irradiation chamber must be installed such that it cannot run empty and is always filled to
the top with water - whatever the condition of the system!

Operating the UVC disinfection system without water may result in damage

4.4 Technical Data
See section “3.3 General Description” - technical data for UVC disinfection systems.

4.5 Fitting and Installation

It is essential that the following points be noted and observed concerning the mechanical
installation of the AQUAFIDES UVC disinfection system:
The piping and irradiation chambers must be suitably supported such that the irradiation
chamber and the flanges (or thread connections) are not stressed by their own weight (that is
the weight of the irradiation chamber and the water).
The irradiation chamber must be fitted and operated without placing it under stress.
Where irradiation chambers are fitted above ground level, attention must be given to the
provision of suitable structural measures to allow for maintenance of the UVC disinfection
system. For example, by means of construction staging, fixed ladders, or platforms on which
both the operating personnel and the service technicians can safely stand in order to carry out
maintenance and servicing work.
Suitable isolation valves are to be fitted before and after the AQUAFIDES UVC disinfection
system so that the system can be depressurized for maintenance or, if required, dismantled.
If an automatic bleed valve is to be used, the outlet of the bleed valve must be permanently
attached to a drainage pipe so that any water spraying from it does not affect the functioning of
the UVC disinfection system and the UVC sensor system.
If a bypass line for the AQUAFIDES UVC disinfection system is planned, then 2 hand valves
and a drainage valve are to be provided for the bypass line. These hand valves are to be fitted
such that they are located as close as possible to the inlet and outlet pipes of the UVC
irradiation chamber. It is essential that a drainage valve is provided for the bypass line.
It is recommended that a suitable pre-filter be fitted before the AQUAFIDES UVC disinfection
system in order to remove any particulate matter (sand, splinters, and suchlike).
Sufficient clearance for the UVC monitoring system is to be maintained at the UVC irradiation
chamber, so that the UVC sensor and the measuring window tube can be cleaned, recalibrated,
and changed.
The UVC irradiation chamber must be installed such that it cannot run empty - never operate
the UVC lamp without water! - and is always filled to the top with water. Adequately bleed any
air from the UVC irradiation chamber after every use. Whatever the status of the system, it must
be ensured that the UVC irradiation chamber is entirely filled with water.
The room height (or width, depending on the orientation in which the UVC irradiation chamber is
installed) must be large enough to permit the UVC lamps to be changed and the protective
quartz sleeves to be removed without difficulty. For this, a minimum clearance see “Dimension
Sheets for Irradiation Chambers” must be maintained above the UVC irradiation chamber.

4.6 Installation Diagrams for UVC Disinfection Systems

Whichever installation diagram is most applicable for you depends on the particular
circumstances of your site. It is also possible that your system needs to be installed in some
way that differs from these diagrams. If you are not sure, contact the manufacturer,
AQUAFIDES, or one of our qualified sales or service partners.

 05. Control Cabinet COMPACT T
Irradiation Systems

5.1 Choice of Location for Fitting the Control Cabinet

It is essential that the following points are noted and observed when installing the
AQUAFIDES control cabinet for the UVC disinfection system:
A clearance distance of at least 300 mm must exist above and below the control cabinet for
convective ventilation.
A sufficient, stable electrical supply must be guaranteed. In addition, suitable electrical safety
measures must be provided.
The control unit is equipped with varistors to protect the electronics. It is, however, quite
possible that additional measures to cope with electric surges may be required in exposed
settings.
The treatment room must be protected from frost; a maximum temperature of 30°C should not
be exceeded. Specially designed models are necessary for higher and lower temperatures.
Rooms in which acids or the like are stored are not suitable.
The UVC disinfection system and, in particular, the control cabinet is to be protected from direct
sunlight.
If large quantities of condensation appear in the treatment room, then the room must be
equipped with a suitable air dehumidifier.
The UVC disinfection system must not be exposed to excessive dust.
The installation room should be as accessible as possible (service friendly).
The control cabinet as well as the irradiation chamber and the UVC sensor system must be
easily accessible.
A drain must be provided in the treatment room so that water that accumulates when the UVC
disinfection system is drained, bled, or flushed can be removed.
The AQUAFIDES UVC disinfection system cannot be set up outside. If this is required, a special
design is necessary.
The treatment room must have openings (doors, manholes, wall breaks, etc.) suitable for
installing the UVC disinfection system, or such openings must be planned. The dimension
sheets for the irradiation chambers and control cabinets should be consulted for this. For the
dimensions, please refer to the dimension sheets and the technical data sheets.

 06. Initial Operation COMPACT T
Irradiation Systems

6.1 Brief Description

• Check irradiation chamber for hydraulic leaks.

• Fit UVC lamp and connect to the lamp cable.
• Connect / insert power plug into a fused power socket.
• Check UVC sensor system for leaks, and check that sensor and measuring window tube
are clean - assemble sensor system only when it is in a dry state.
• Fill irradiation chamber with water (open isolation valves) and bleed out air.
• Switch UVC disinfection system on by pressing the “Hand or Automatic” key followed by
“OK”.
• Wait until the system has powered up - operational status indicated by green LED on the
control cabinet.
• Switch disinfection system off by pressing the “OFF” key, and confirm by pressing the
“OK” key.
• Unplug UVC sensor cable.
• Switch UVC disinfection system on again (see above) - a malfunction should now be
indicated - red LED on the control cabinet. At this point, the flow of water through the
UVC disinfection system must not be turned on.
• Switch UVC disinfection system off (see above).
• Plug in UVC sensor cable.
• Restart UVC disinfection system (see above).

6.2 Initial Filling and Leak Tightness Test

Check that all hydraulic connections are properly screwed together and sealed. Before the
irradiation chamber is filled, the flanged quartz sleeve, the quartz sleeve with blank flange, and
the measuring window tube must be properly fitted.

Slowly flood the irradiation chamber with water by slowly opening the valve on the supply line.

If an automatic air bleed valve is not present, open the air bleed screw slightly, and bleed the air
from the irradiation chamber for as long as necessary, until no more air escapes.

Close the air bleed screw, and visually check the irradiation chamber for leaks at the flange
connections, the measuring window tube, and the flanged quartz sleeve.

If everything is suitably watertight, the inlet and outlet valves can be fully opened.

6.3 Fitting the UVC Lamp

Note: The flanged quartz sleeve is mounted in the irradiation chamber during manufacture!

Version 0 / 14.08.2008 "06_Inbetriebnahme_en" Page 1/3

The lamp connectors are located on the lamp flange, which is screwed onto the quartz sleeve
flange. Remove this quartz sleeve flange by undoing the two M5 pan head screws, and lay the
lamp flange down in a dry and clean place.

Carefully take the UVC lamp out of the packaging!

IMPORTANT: Grasp the UVC lamp carefully at one end (not by the glass body)!

Carefully attach the lamp connector to the ceramic socket of the lamp flange - not forcibly,
because of the risk of breakage! Make sure that this plug connection is properly seated.

Remove the lamp packaging completely (do not touch the glass body while doing so).

IMPORTANT: Before fitting the UVC lamp, check that no condensation or other water is present
in the quartz sleeve and that the UVC lamp is dry and clean. Clean and dry these if
necessary.

CAREFULLY insert the lamp into the opening in the flanged quartz sleeve, fit the lamp flange in
place, and secure it with the two M5 screws.

IMPORTANT: When working with a UVC lamp, always be careful not to subject the lamp bases
at the ends to any sideways stress because there is no replacement under
warranty for broken bases. Never touch the quartz sleeve of the UVC lamp with
bare fingers, and clean it only with a soft, silicone-free cloth. If necessary, remove
finger prints, dirt, etc. on the quartz glass with alcohol or acetone. These cleaning
fluids must be removed leaving no residue before the UVC lamp is fitted or
operated.

IMPORTANT:
The UVC lamps must not be scratched. Carry out cleaning only with soft cloths
(e.g. kitchen roll without overprint, etc.). Cloths that contain silicone, such as, e.g.,
dish towels, etc., may not be used.

Carefully insert the UVC lamp with the lamp flange into the opening of the flanged quartz
sleeve, and slowly push it all the way in. Do not use force – there is a risk of breakage! Bring
the lamp flange into the correct position so that the M5 pan head screws can be fitted. Take
care that the wires to the UVC lamp do not run directly in front of the UVC sensor. If this is the
case, rotate the lamp flange by 180° or gently twist the lamp flange cables a small amount.

6.4 Fitting and Removing the UVC Sensor and ÖNORM / DVGW Measuring
Window Tube

Note: The measuring window tube is fitted to the irradiation chamber at the factory.
The UVC sensor is delivered separately with it and must still be fitted.

CAUTION!
Take care when removing the measuring window tube. It is essential that the
UVC disinfection system be switched off to do this (master switch on 0 or power
plug pulled), and the UVC irradiation chamber must be fully depressurized before
the measuring window tube may be unscrewed.

Version 0 / 14.08.2008 "06_Inbetriebnahme_en" Page 2/3

General
• Pull power plug or, in the case of UVC disinfection systems with a master switch, turn off at the
control cabinet.
• Close isolation valves before and after the UVC disinfection system. Depending on the mode of
operation, switch the pump off or open the bypass line into the channel before starting.
• Drain the irradiation chamber until it is completely empty and zero pressure is reached.

Measuring Window Tube

• Carefully screw the measuring window tube out of the UVC irradiation chamber.
• If necessary, carry out cleaning (see “Maintenance and Service Section 7.4" for this)
• Check quartz sleeve as well as the threads of the measuring window tube and of the union nut
for damage. Do not under any circumstances fit damaged threads, because they could get
jammed. This would make the entire irradiation chamber unusable, and it would have to be
replaced. If the quartz window has cracks or any other damage, do not under any
circumstances fit it, because this could result in severe injuries and damage since the full
pressure of the water in the irradiation chamber presses on this window.
• Before screwing the measuring window tube in, check the O-ring seal for damage, and replace
if necessary.
• Lubricate the thread of the measuring window tube with grease that is approved for use in the
food industry (to prevent the stainless steel to stainless steel contact from locking), screw it into
the irradiation chamber, and tighten it without using excessive force.

UVC Sensor
• Carefully take the UVC sensor out of the packaging.
• If necessary, carry out cleaning (see “Maintenance and Service Section 7.4" for this)
• Check the thread of the measuring window tube union nut for damage.
Do not under any circumstances fit damaged threads, because these could get jammed.
• Before inserting the UVC sensor into the opening of the measuring window tube, check the O-
ring seal of the UVC sensor for damage, and replace if necessary. The UVC sensor and
measuring window tube must be completely dry before assembly.
• Insert the UVC sensor and lock into position with the union nut.
• Connect the UVC sensor cable.
• Disassemble the UVC sensor by reversing the sequence of assembly.

6.5 System Check before Initial Operation

• Check power supply.

• Check valves and UVC irradiation chamber for leaks.
• Check that air has been bled from the irradiation chamber and that all valves are open.
• Check UVC lamp connection.
• Check UVC sensor connection.
• Check control unit.
• Check system as a whole to ensure that all the requirements for trouble-free operation of the
UVC disinfection system are met.
• Switch the UVC disinfection system on - either by hand or automatically (by remote
activation).
• The UVC disinfection system is now in its power-up mode (preheating of the UVC lamp,
internal system check).
• The UVC disinfection system control cabinet indicates the operating conditions. Operation
should be enabled after about 5 - 8 minutes. This is signaled by a green LED.
• Check water throughput - after operational mode has been signaled (green LED).
• The UVC disinfection system is now operating correctly.

 07. Maintenance and Servicing COMPACT T
Irradiation Systems

7.1 Brief Description

The AQUAFIDES UVC disinfection systems are designed such that the operating status is
indicated at the control cabinet. Permanent visual monitoring of the UVC disinfection system is
therefore not required.

Coatings on the quartz sleeves, measuring windows, deterioration of the lamp, and suchlike are
monitored by the UVC sensor, signaled, and reported. Visual inspection of the coatings on the
quartz sleeves and of the measuring windows is necessary at least once a year and can be
performed by the operator him/herself. Factory-based training in the procedure for carrying out
these tasks is recommended.

The operating hours, start-ups, and UV transmission are to be monitored and recorded. The
UVC lamp is to be changed after 8,760 hours of operating time including start-ups.

AQUAFIDES offers maintenance contracts that guarantee regular professional inspections of

the UVC disinfection system and thus ensure trouble-free operation of the UVC disinfection
system.

CAUTION!
Never expose yourself to the UVC radiation without protective goggles.
Never operate the UVC lamp outside the UVC irradiation chamber.
Never look into the opening of the measuring window tube when the UVC lamp is
switched on because UVC radiation escapes through the quartz sleeve.

IMPORTANT!
Each time the protective quartz sleeves are cleaned, the measuring window tube
and the system sensor should also be cleaned.

Quartz sleeves, measuring window tube, quartz window, and quartz sensor
window must not be scratched. Carry out cleaning only with soft cloths (such as,
e.g., kitchen roll without overprint, etc.). Cloths that contain silicone, such as, e.g.,
dish towels, etc., may not be used.

The monitoring unit must be checked once a year by the manufacturer.

7.2 Changing the UVC Lamp

Note: The flanged quartz sleeve is mounted in the irradiation chamber at the factory.

IMPORTANT!
Allow the UVC lamp to cool off for at least 10 minutes before removing.
There is a risk of burns from the hot UVC lamp.

The lamp connectors are located on the lamp flange, which is screwed onto the quartz sleeve
flange. Remove this quartz sleeve flange by undoing the two M5 pan head screws, and carefully
pull out the UVC lamp on the lamp flange. As soon as the socket of the UVC lamp can be seen,
take hold of this too so that the UVC lamp does not detach itself from the lamp flange and fall
into the quartz sleeve - "danger of breakage”. Lay the lamp flange down in a dry and clean
place.

Carefully take the new UVC lamp out of the packaging.

IMPORTANT: Grasp the UVC lamp carefully at one end (not by the glass body)!

Carefully attach the lamp connector to the ceramic socket of the lamp flange - not forcibly: risk
of breakage! Make sure that the plug connection is properly seated.

Remove the UVC lamp packaging completely (do not touch the glass body while doing so!).

IMPORTANT: Before fitting the UVC lamp, check that no condensation or other water is present
in the quartz sleeve and that the UVC lamp is dry and clean. Clean and dry if
necessary.

CAREFULLY insert the lamp into the opening in the flanged quartz sleeve, fit the lamp flange in
place, and secure it with the two M5 screws.

IMPORTANT: When working with a UVC lamp, always be careful not to subject the lamp base
at the ends to any sideways stress because there is no replacement under
warranty for broken bases. Never touch the quartz sleeve of the UVC lamp with
bare fingers, and clean it only with a soft, silicone-free cloth. If necessary, remove
finger prints, dirt, etc. on the quartz glass with alcohol or acetone. These cleaning
fluids must be removed leaving no residue before the UVC lamp is fitted or
operated.

IMPORTANT:
The UVC lamps must not be scratched. Carry out cleaning only with soft cloths
(e.g. kitchen roll without overprint, etc.). Cloths that contain silicone, such as dish
towels, etc., may not be used.

Carefully insert the UVC lamp with the lamp flange into the opening of the flanged quartz
sleeve, and slowly push it all the way in. Do not use force - risk of breakage! Bring the lamp
flange into the correct position so that the M5 pan head screws can be fitted. Take care that the
wires to the UVC lamp do not run directly in front of the UVC sensor. If this is the case, rotate
the lamp flange by 180° or gently twist the lamp flange cables a small amount.

7.3 Removing and Refitting Flanged Quartz Sleeves (Cleaning)

The quartz sleeves must be cleaned regularly during maintenance or if the UVC sensor indicator
falls below the permissible value or advance warning value.

General

• Pull power plug or, in the case of UVC disinfection systems with a master switch, turn off at the
control cabinet.
• Close the isolation valves before and after the UVC disinfection system. Depending on the
mode of operation, switch the pump off or open the bypass line into the channel before starting.
• Drain the irradiation chamber until it is completely empty and zero pressure is reached.

IMPORTANT!
Take care with the quartz sleeve - risk of breakage and injury!
Wear appropriate cut resistant gloves!

ATTENTIO N

The protective quartz sleeve must not be scratched.

Clean only with a soft cloth (e.g. kitchen roll, etc.). Cloths incorporating fibers that
contain silicone, such as, e.g., dish towels, may not be used!

Flanged quartz sleeve

• Undo the M6 pan head screws evenly.
• Pull the flanged quartz sleeve out carefully, slowly, and evenly. At about the half-way point of
the irradiation chamber, you will notice a little resistance when pulling out the quartz sleeve.
This is the guide plate of the quartz sleeve. Carefully continue to pull out without using force -
risk of breakage!
• Check the quartz sleeve for soiling.
• In the case of light soiling, clean with a soft, clean cloth (silicone free) and some spirit or acidic
cleaning agent to remove lime scale and rust (iron coatings). Please take care that the stainless
steel parts of the flanged quartz sleeve are not corroded by this cleaning agent.
• For heavy soiling, clean with 5% acid solution (e.g. hydrochloric acid, formic acid, or other acid
cleaning agents for the removal of lime scale and iron), and rinse well with water afterwards.
The safety instructions of the products used must be noted and strictly followed.
• Dry with a clean, silicone-free cloth, and subsequently touch only with a clean cloth. The inside
of the quartz sleeve should also always be clean before fitting and, above all, should be dry. For
the inside of the quartz sleeve, it is usually sufficient to clean with a dry cloth.
• Fitting the protective quartz sleeve
• Insert the clean and dry flanged quartz sleeve carefully into the opening in the UVC irradiation
chamber. Push the quartz sleeve evenly and slowly further into the irradiation chamber. Located
roughly at the center of the irradiation chamber is a guide plate for the quartz sleeve. Carefully
insert the quartz sleeve directly through the hole in this guide plate. Slowly move the quartz
sleeve further into the irradiation chamber until the flange is almost home. The quartz sleeve
must now be inserted into the opening at the opposite side in order to ensure optimal seating.

Version 0 / 14.08.2008 "07_Wartung und Service_en" Page 3/9

• If the quartz sleeve should encounter resistance as it is inserted into the opposite cover of the
irradiation chamber, do not try to force it in! Take the quartz sleeve out again, and, on the
opposite side of the irradiation chamber, remove the blank flange by undoing the 4 pan head
screws. Flush out the irradiation chamber with enough water to remove any contamination that
may be present (splinters, sand, etc.).
• Before fitting the blank flange, check that the O-ring is still in satisfactory condition, and then
reattach by securing with the 4 pan head screws.
• Refit the quartz sleeve as described above.
IMPORTANT: Not forcibly, but carefully, so that the quartz sleeve does not break!
• Tighten the M6 pan head screws evenly.

7.4 UVC Sensor System (Cleaning)

Each time the protective quartz sleeves are cleaned, the measuring window tube and the
system sensor should also be cleaned.

ATTENTIO N!
The quartz glass windows in the measuring window tube and system sensors
must not be scratched. Carry out cleaning only with soft cloths (e.g. kitchen roll,
etc.) and cotton swabs.
Cloths incorporating fibers that contain silicone, such as, e.g., dish towels, may
not be used.

The UVC monitoring unit (sensor and analysis system) should be checked by the manufacturer
once a year.

General

• Pull the power plug or, in the case of UVC disinfection systems with a master switch, turn off at
the control cabinet.
• Close the isolation valves before and after the UVC disinfection system. Depending on the
mode of operation, switch the pump off or open the bypass line into the channel before starting.
• Drain the irradiation chamber until it is completely empty and zero pressure is reached.
• The UVC system sensors should be checked once a year by the manufacturer.

CAUTION!
Take care when removing the measuring window tube. It is essential that the
UVC disinfection system be switched off to do this (master switch on 0 or power
plug pulled), and the UVC irradiation chamber must be fully depressurized before
the measuring window tube may be unscrewed.

UVC Sensor

• Detach the UVC sensor cable from the UVC sensor. Take care that the cable connector does
not come into contact with water, and lay it down in a dry place.
• Undo the union nut from the measuring window tube and put it in a dry and clean place.
• Carefully pull the UVC sensor out of the measuring window tube.

Version 0 / 14.08.2008 "07_Wartung und Service_en" Page 4/9

• Clean with a soft, clean cloth (silicone free) and some spirit, acetone, or alcohol. Please take
care that the stainless steel parts of the UVC sensor are not corroded by the cleaning agent.
• After cleaning, wipe the UVC sensor dry with a clean cloth. Lay the UVC sensor down in a clean
and dry place.
• Check the thread of the measuring window tube union nut for damage.
Do not under any circumstances fit damaged threads, because they could get jammed.
• Before refitting the UVC sensor, the measuring window tube must be cleaned and must be
completely clean and dry inside.
• Before inserting the UVC sensor into the opening of the measuring window tube, check the O-
ring seal for damage, and replace if necessary. The UVC sensor and measuring window tube
must be completely dry before assembly.

7.5 Checking UVC Sensor System with Reference Sensor

IMPORTANT!
The monitoring unit must be checked by the manufacturer once a year, in
accordance with ÖNORM M 5873-1.

Pressing the central “MENU” control key displays a selection menu on the LCD display.
Pressing the control keys ▼ or ▲ brings you to the "Sensor Check" menu item.
Confirm this with the “OK” key. In this operating mode, the displayed reference values in W/m2
are frozen for 240 seconds without the system shutting down.
In these 240 seconds, you have time to remove the system sensor as described in section 7.4
and compare it with a reference sensor. At the end of the 240 seconds, the system returns to its
normal operating mode.

Note: If there is no system sensor in the UVC disinfection system when the 240 seconds
are over, the system goes into malfunction mode, and the water throughput is halted.

7.6 Checking System before Restarting

• Check the power supply

• Check the valves and UVC irradiation chamber for leaks
• Check that air has been bled from the irradiation chamber and that all valves are open
• Check the UVC lamp connection
• Check the UVC sensor connection
• Check the control unit
• Check the system as a whole to ensure that all the requirements for trouble-free operation of
the UVC disinfection system are met.
• Switch the UVC disinfection system on - either by hand or automatically (by remote
activation).
• The UVC disinfection system is now in its power-up mode (preheating of the UVC lamp,
internal system check).
• The UVC disinfection system control cabinet indicates the operating status. Operation is
enabled after about 5 - 8 minutes. This is signaled by a green LED.
• Check the water throughput - after operational mode has been signaled (green LED).
• The UVC disinfection system is now operating correctly.

7.7 Malfunctions and Troubleshooting

CAUTION!
Risk of injury!
Troubleshooting of the UVC disinfection system may be performed only by
AQUAFIDES and by its authorized personnel with the appropriate tools and in
compliance with the relevant safety regulations.

Version 0 / 14.08.2008 "07_Wartung und Service_en" Page 6/9

 IMPORTANT!
Malfunctions can best be prevented by correct installation and commissioning,
regular maintenance, and the use of original AQUAFIDES replacement parts.
All malfunctions and their rectification are to be recorded in the operating log.

 09. Transmission COMPACT T
Conversion Table Irradiation Systems

SAC Spectral attenuation coefficient at 254 nm Tr 50 mm UV transmission to 50 mm at 254 nm

Tr 10 mm UV transmission to 10 mm at 254 nm Tr 100 mm UV transmission to 100 mm at 254 nm

When UVC light shines through water, the UVC radiation is attenuated due to absorption by substances in
the water (e.g. iron, manganese, organic compounds, e.g. humins). This attenuation can only be
determined using a photometer.
Determination of the SAC 254 nm is performed by measuring the extinction at a wavelength of 254 nm of
the unfiltered water with quartz cuvettes in a spectral photometer (following DIN 38404, Part 3).
