CONSTRUCTION
• The water purifier is designed to mount horizontally.
• The water purifier's dual chamber heads are removable and may be rotated independently, which aids in the installation, maintenance or the retrofitting of an existing system. A drain port on the chamber head aids in thedraining of the purifier.
• The water purifier's chamber, and chamber heads are electropolished and passivated type 316 stainless steel.
• The ballast housing is type 304 stainless steel.
• Coated chambers are available for uses with special applications. Coated chambers are not recommended for use in drinking water applications or in applications where the treated product is consumed. Consult factory with your application requirements.
• The dual action wiper mechanism allows for quick and easy quartz sleeve cleaning, without interrupting service.
• EASY-OFF™ end caps allow for quick and easy lamp change, without disconnecting from the water supply or draining the purifier. No tools are required.
• Certain versions of 220v units have been designed to be CE compliant. These units have been tested to and comply with the requirements of the Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive and the Machinery Directive. The Declaration of Conformity lists the European Norm (EN) standards to which these units were tested, to demonstrate conformity.

 RECOMMENDED OPTIONS
1. Guardian™ Ultraviolet Monitor*: Visually indicates the level of germicidal ultraviolet energy that penetrates the quartz sleeve and the water within the water purifier. The ultraviolet monitor is capable of operating an optional audio alarm and/or solenoid valve. The ultraviolet monitor will detect reduction of ultraviolet levels due to:
• Fouling or deposits on the quartz sleeve.
• Poor ultraviolet transmission through the water; color, turbidity, and organic or other impurities in the water can reduce or interfere with the transmission of ultraviolet rays.
• Lamp outage, component or power failure.
• Depreciation of the lamp output due to usage or other cause. Lamp output gradually depreciates with use. Lamp replacement is recommended once each year.
2. Sentry™ Safety Sensor: Pilot lamps provide constant visual monitoring of normal operation. In the event of power or lamp failure the safety sensor indicates an alarm condition. The safety sensor is capable of operating an optional audio alarm and/or solenoid valve.
3. Steralert™: Lamp Status Alarm produces a high pitched, pulsed tone when the purifier is no longer functioning due to lamp or power failure.
4. SureFLO™: Flow Control Valve, limits water flow to the rated capacity of the purifier. The flow control valve is located in line prior to the water purifier, and should be protected from ultraviolet exposure by the use of a 90-degree elbow fitting between the flow control valve and the water purifier.
5. Audio Alarm*: Activated by the Ultraviolet Monitor or Safety Sensor, alerts the user to any malfunction detected.
6. Solenoid Valve*: Operated in conjunction with the Ultraviolet Monitor, Safety Sensor or Time Delay Mechanism, this valve prevents water flow through the water purifier when an abnormal condition is detected or in the event of power failure.
7. Elapsed Time Indicator: A non-resettable display of the water purifier operating hours. Useful for scheduling and recording maintenance and lamp replacement.
8. Time Delay Mechanism*: Provides a 2-minute warm up period during which the ultraviolet lamp achieves its full germicidal output before the water is allowed to flow through the water purifier. The time delay mechanism is used in conjunction with, and is electrically connected to the Solenoid Valve.
9. Wall Mount Kit: (S37C,S50C,S2400C) Stainless steel wall brackets provide quick and easy installation and professional finish. Pre-drilled and ready to install. Optimizes free air circulation to cool ballast housing. Mounting stand is provided for models S10,000C to S25,000C.

Disinfection Unit.” Originally issued April, 1966.

 PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The SANITRON® design has been carefully conceived to provide adequate germicidal dosage throughout the disinfection chamber. The dosage, as it applies to ultraviolet disinfection, is a function of time and the intensity of ultraviolet radiation to which the water is exposed. The exposure time, in seconds, is the total time it takes the water to flow through the disinfection chamber exposing it to the germicidal lamp. Exposure time is related to the flow rate; the higher the flow rate, the lower the exposure time or the lower the flow rate, the higher the exposure time. The ultraviolet intensity is the amount of energy, per unit time, emitted by the germicidal lamp. The dosage is the product of ultraviolet intensity and the exposure time. The operation of the SANITRON® is as follows:
1. Water enters the purifier and flows into the annular space between the quartz sleeve and the chamber wall.
2. Suspended microorganisms are exposed to the ultraviolet rays emitted by the germicidal lamp.
3. The translucent sight port, or optional ultraviolet monitor, provides visual indication of germicidal lamp operation.
4. The dual action wiper mechanism facilitates periodic cleaning of the quartz sleeve without disassembly or interruption of purifier operation.
5. Water leaving the purifier is instantly ready for use, no further contact time is required.

LOCATION

1. The water purifier is intended for indoor use only. The water purifier should be protected from the elements and from temperatures below freezing. The ambient temperature, in the area surrounding the water purifier, should be between 33 and 100 degrees F.

2. Electrical power supplied to the water purifier MUST match power requirements listed on the water purifier. Use of a voltage surge protector is recommended.

3. The water purifier should be located in a dry, well-lit area, which provides enough room to perform routine maintenance. This includes a minimum distance of one chamber length from the wiper end, to allow for cleaning and/or the changing of the lamp and quartz sleeve as well as a minimum of 6" on the opposite end of the water purifier.

4. The water purifier should always be located closest to the point of use. This reduces the chance of the purified water being re-contaminated by bacteria in the water distribution system after the water purifier.

5. CAUTION: As with any water handling device, the water purifier should be located in an area where any possible condensation or leakage from the water purifier, any purifier accessory and/or plumbing will not result in damage to the area surrounding the water purifier. For added protection, it is recommended that a suitable drain pan be installed under the purifier. LIMITATION OF USE The water purifier is intended for the use with visually clear water, not colored, cloudy or turbid. See Water Quality section below. The water purifier is NOT intended for the treatment of water that has an obvious contamination or intentional source, such as raw sewage; nor is the unit intended to convert wastewater to microbiologically safe drinking water.

WATER QUALITY Water quality plays a major role in the transmission of germicidal ultraviolet rays. It is recommended that the water does not exceed the following maximum concentration levels:

Turbidity: 5 NTU

Manganese: 0.05mg

Total Suspended Solids: 10 mg pH: 6.5 - 9.5

Color: None

Hardness: 6 GPG or 102.6 PPM

Iron: 0.3 mg
