1 General Information
We recommend that you read these instructions carefully before installing the UVC apparatus. This apparatus us-
es UV radiation to Sterilize and purify water in pools and ponds.
It consists of the following components:
1) Transparent Screw Cap with power cord and ballast
2) UV Bulb
3) Silica glass protective cover
2 Fields of Application
UVC equipment has been used for some time to keep ponds and pools water free of floating algae and to reduce
water borne pathogens. UVC filtration can also insure crystal-clear water and a healthy aquatic environment for
both fish and aquatic plants. The effect is based on the use of ultraviolet radiation, which affects the cells of both
plants and animals. The effect is optimized by the fact that the water to be filtered is led directly along the UVC
tube in a thin film. The UV radiation will kill the algae but a pond filter (filter system) is necessary to remove the
clumps of dead algae. UV clarifiers will not kill string algae. How efficiently a clarifier works depends entirely on
the condition of your pond, i.e., the number of plants and fish, and the amount of sun exposure. For most ponds
with normal levels of green water, the cleaning process can take anywhere from 1-3 weeks. We recommend that
you have the UVC tube on throughout the pond/pool season.
