Lamp life is governed bythe life of the electrodes and is affected by the frequency of starting.Slimline germicidal lamps are well suited to applications requiring highultraviolet intensity such as water sterilization.STER-L-RAY TM Preheat Germicidal Lamps are operated by a preheat-startcircuit that employs a compact and economical ballast. The preheat circuitrequires four electrical connections per lamp and a slight to moderatedelay is needed to start the lamp.1 Wattage is lamp watts only and does not include ballast loss (approximate).2 Maximum rated output at 254 nanometers.The lamps listed above have been especially developed and are recommended for use with MIGHTY?PURETM Water Purifiers.All STER-L-RAY TM lamps used in MIGHTY?PURE TM units are low pressure type which afford the maximum efficiency in producingthe required germicidal rays. In addition to the obvious advantages of high efficiency and low power requirements, there is nopossibility of the unit overheating (as is the case with some other lamp types). Consequently, the need for additional equipment tocombat overheating is eliminated.STER-L-RAY TM and the STER-L-RAY TM logo are trademarks of Atlantic Ultraviolet Corporation.CAUTION: Exposure to direct or reflected germicidal ultraviolet rays will cause painful eye irritation and reddeningof the skin. Personnel subject to such exposure must wear suitable faceshield, gloves and protective clothing.Hg - LAMP CONTAINS MERCURY, manage in accord with disposal laws, see: www.lamprecycle.org.6Gallons Gallons UNIT DIMENSIONS (Inches) SHIPPING DATAModel per per Inlet and Replacement Power Gross Wt.

The GUARDIANTM Ultraviolet Monitor iscapable of operating an optional Audio Alarm and Solenoid Valve. In addition, the GUARDIANTM UltravioletMonitor will detect loss of ultraviolet due to lamp outage, component or power failure. Use of the Ultraviolet Monitor isrecommended by the US Public Health Service "Criteria for the Acceptability of an Ultraviolet Disinfection Unit". The GUARDIANTM Ultraviolet Monitor will detect reduction of ultraviolet levels due to: 1. Fouling or deposits on quartz sleeve. 2. Poor ultraviolet transmission through the water. (Color, Turbidity, organic or other impurities in the water can reduceor interfere with the transmission of ultraviolet rays.)3. Depreciation of lamp output due to usage or other cause. (Lamp output gradually depreciates with use. Lamp replacement is recommended once each year.)The GUARDIANTM Ultraviolet Monitor has three models; Analog, Digital and Digital Remote. VoltageConfigurations include 120V / 50 or 60Hz, 220-240V / 50 or 60 Hz, or 12VDC. Contact factory for special require-ments. NOTE: GUARDIANTM Ultraviolet Monitor (analog, digital or digital remote) can be purchased andinstalled with the water purifier or at a later date for an existing installation.The GUARDIANTM Ultraviolet Analog and Digital Monitors are mounted directly on to the water purifier. Thesensor probe (included) is threaded into the sight port fitting of the ultraviolet water purifier. The aluminum collar onthe bottom of the GUARDIANTM Ultraviolet Analog or Digital Monitor is secured over the sensor probe.The GUARDIANTM Ultraviolet Digital Remote Monitor is intended for use in a location away from the waterpurifier that is being monitored. In all other respects, the remote GUARDIANTM behaves the same as the stan-dard GUARDIANTM. Mounted on the back of the remote monitor is a socket into which the lead from an ultravioletsensor is connected. Instead of being mounted inside the monitor housing, this sensor is contained within the remoteprobe. A standard length for the connecting cable supplied with the probe is 50 ft., but the lead length may be extend-ed if desired. Please contact the factory for additional lengths.Wall Mounting KitStainless steel material provides professional finish.Pre-drilled and ready forquick and easy mounting ofwater purifer.
