PREPARATION FOR LAUNCHING AND INSTALLATION
I. INSTALL THE FLUORESCENT LAMP
Prior to launching the sterilizer insert the fluorescent lamp, proceeding accor-
ding to the following:
1. turn the fitting grip (10) clockwise, according to the „OUT" arrow (fig.),
2. remove the fitting (10),
3. press the fluorescent lamp (8) into the fitting (10) until locked,
NOTE: Do not touch the fluorescent lamp glass; remove possible marks with a dry
cloth
4. place the fitting (10) along with the fitted fluorescent lamp (8) in the quartz housing
(7) (otherwise the fluorescent lamp will not work).
II. CONNECT THE STERILIZER TO THE WATER CIRCUIT
NOTE: Water flowing through the sterilizer should be mechanically filtered (by the
preliminary filter).
The sterilizer can only be operated outside of the aquarium. Do not immerse the
device in water. The transparent stub pipes allow for connection of hoses of various
diameters. Examples of connection of the sterilizer are shown on figures , , .
Additionally, some AQUAEL pumps and aquarium filters are adapted for direct con-
nection or even installation of the sterilizer lamp in the filter housing.
NOTE: For the purpose of problem-free deaeration, the UV sterilizer should be po-
sitioned slightly inclined, so that the outlet opening is the highest point of the sterilizer.
