System Sizing
All LUMINOR UV systems are rated for a specic ow rate in water that meets the quality param-
eters on page 5. PLEASE NOTE that increasing the ow above this rang or disinfecng water
that does not meet the quality parameters will decrease the dose and therefore compromise the
ecacy of the system.
If you need to determine your maximum ow rate, you can ll a 1 gallon bucket with water and
me how long it takes to ll up. It is always beer to oversize your system then to undersize. For
example, if your pump delivers 8 gpm it is recommended to install any of the BLACKCOMB 10
gpm systems.
Locaon
For Point of Entry (POE) systems, choose a locaon where the main cold water line is accessible.
The system must be installed aer other water treatment equipment (soener or lters), but
before any branches (See Figure 1). For Point of Use (POU) systems, install the unit just before
the faucet. LUMINOR recommends that a 5 micron lter be installed before the UV system for a
nal polishing step before the water is disinfected.

To facilitate lamp removal, ensure there is enough space at the lamp connector end to safely
remove the UV lamp and/or quartz sleeve (See Figure 2).
The controller will require a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI or GFI) outlet and should be
mounted beside or above the reactor.
PLEASE NOTE: All LUMINOR UV disinfecon systems are intended for indoor use only as they
should not be exposed to the elements.
