UVF-9 Internal UV Filter
- High quality quartz sleeve
- Safe for inhabitant
- Kills Algae, Parasites, Harmful bacteria
- Combination with Carbon and Foam Filter
- Quiet and Reliable
- Ideal for saltwater, freshwater and pond.
Important to Know
- When the quartz sleeve gets dirty with any sludge build up, it must be kept clean to maximize the efficiency of UV light.
- In case of controlling parasites, prolong the exposure time of water to the UV light. It can be accomplished by lowering flow of water.
- UV sterilizer would be connected to a suitable filter device to trap any suspended particles that can be attached on the quartz sleeve.
- Replace an UV bulb when lamp effectiveness declines with time. It is recommended to replace UV bulb every Six Months.
- This UV sterilizer can be used for saltwater, freshwater aquariums and pond.
- Maximum aquarium size is calculated by UV dosage that kills free-floating algae and bacteria at 30,000 pw/cm2 and tank turn over of 3 to 4 times per hour.

Safety Instruction
- Make sure that electrical voltage is compatible with voltage printed on the filter label.
- Always use a properly grounded electrical outlet.
- To avoid electrical shock and /or electrical short, use a drip loop to prevent water travel along the power cord
- Ensure pump is securely installed before operation.
- Pump should only be used with water.
- Do not operated a dry filter to avoid permanent damage. The filter should always be used with water.
- Do not operate filter if it is damaged, malfunction and/or if there is a problem with the power cord.
- Always unplug the filter from the electrical outlet when not in use, before replacing of cleaning pars. Do not yank power cord to unplug it from the electrical outlet.
- Do not install or store pump where it can be extreme weather conditions or temperature below freezing.
- If an extension cord is necessary, use a cord with the proper rating. A cord rated for less amperes or watts than the pump rating may result in overheating.
- Do not attempt to repair filter at home. If service is needed, return filter to an authorized service center for service.
- UV Clarifier brings ultraviolet radiation when it is working which is harmful to the human eyes and skin, avoid eye contact and skin contact with the UV light at all times. Remember to switch off the power before opening up the unit.
- When an "Acute Collision" or "A drop of the Unit" happens, please check to see if there is any crack on the quartz tube and UV lamp. If any crack or breakages happens, you must replace the broken parts before using the unit again.
Maintenance
- Impeller: 1. Separate the motor unit from the filter part. 2. Gently remove impeller housing from the motor unit. 3. Pull out the magnet impeller. 4. Clean and wipe the magnet impeller to remove dirt, debris and deposits. 5. Reinstall the magnet impeller into shaft and impeller housing.
- Carbon Cartridge: It is recommended to replace carbon cartridge every month for a healthier aquarium. This carbon cartridge unit is sealed and not refillable. Carbon removes color, bad smell and dissolved organic matter.
- Foam Filter: The foam filter combines the important functions of mechanical and biological filter. This foam filter removed debris and suspended particles and will eventually be colonized by nitrifying bacteria. This filter requires periodic cleaning to remove debris and particles for restoring its mechanical function.
- Quartz sleeve and Lamp replacement: 1. Separate the motor unit from the filter cylinder. 2.Open rotary faster by turning. Take out the rotary faster and quartz sleeve step by step and clean the quartz sleeve and inner surface of the product by a soft sponge or cloth. 3. In ease of replacement of UV bulb, take out the old UV lamp and replace with a new lamp. 4.Assemble the unit back to its original state after replacing the lamp (make sure tht the seal ring and any "O" ring are properly placed back).
