To install the Coralife 100115602 Turbo-Twist® 12x UV Sterilizer, please follow these step-by-step instructions:
1. Set up and positioning:
- Adjust the hose barb inlet and outlet: Unscrew the locking ring xxxx and slide the tab down to release. Carefully twist the quartz housing and the main body in opposite directions. Slide the quartz sleeve out of the main body. Reinstall the locking ring and tighten the xxxx .
- Bracket installation: Adjust the tank bracket so that it hangs on the outside of the aquarium. Slide the Turbo-Twist® UV Sterilizer bracket onto the tank bracket and ensure it is securely fastened. Snap the main body into the bracket indicated by a "click." Snap the other bracket with the suction cup in the same way. For horizontal positioning, remove the suction cup and snap the main body into the brackets until it locks with a "click." Secure the bracket to a level surface.
2. UVC lamp installation:
- Remove the threaded cap and install the UVC lamp into the socket until it "clicks" into place. Handle the lamp with a clean cloth.
3. Reassembly:
- Make sure the flat O-ring gasket is properly positioned inside the threaded cap (already installed in the unit). xxxx the threaded cap tightly back into place. Note: Turn the plug and cord together when screwing the threaded cap back into place.
4. Attaching the hose lock nuts:
- Position the hose lock nuts on the hose-barb inlet and outlet. Use flexible tubing (not supplied) to connect the sterilizer to the water supply. Turn the hose lock nut counterclockwise to tighten the flexible tubing onto the hose barb. Hand-tighten the hose lock nuts.
5. Hose barb adapter installation:
- Place the O-ring on the hose barb inlet/outlet, ensuring the taper orientation is correct. Hand-tighten the hose barb adapter onto the Turbo-Twist® UV Sterilizer. Use flexible tubing to connect the sterilizer to the water supply. Turn the hose lock nut counterclockwise to tighten the flexible tubing onto the hose barb. Note: Water will leak if the O-ring is not in place.
6. Installing the Turbo-Twist®:
- Hang-on positioning: Hang the unit using the Turbo-Twist® UV Sterilizer bracket and suction cup on the outside of the aquarium. Adjust the tank bracket to secure the Turbo-Twist® UV Sterilizer.
- Horizontal positioning: Attach the Turbo-Twist® UV Sterilizer bracket with screws on a fixed surface.
7. Tubing connection:
- Connect the tubing between the water flow outlet and the hose barb inlet. It is recommended to use a prefilter with the Turbo-Twist® UV Sterilizer to limit the amount of debris entering the sterilizer. Warning: Never install a valve on the tubing between the main body and the aquarium. Note: Ensure that the tubing is not carrying the weight of the Turbo-Twist® UV Sterilizer. Use the Turbo-Twist® UV Sterilizer brackets to support the unit on a firm surface.
8. Start water flow:
- Turn on the water supply to the Turbo-Twist® UV Sterilizer. Once proper water flow has been established, tilt the unit to let air bubbles inside the tubing and the main body escape. Examine the unit and check for any leaks.
9. Power up Turbo-Twist®:
- Connect the Turbo-Twist® UV Sterilizer to the power supply. Verify that the UVC lamp is working properly, indicated by the light blue glow emitted through the lamp-on indicator. The light from the lamp-on indicator will not affect the skin or the eyes.
