SMART
UV Sterilizer Installation
SMART
UV sterilizers require no additional hardware for wet
applications. Regardless of the application, solid waste
should be removed from the water before it enters the
UV sterilizer. Proper installation improves performance,
longevity and safety. Install our SMART UV sterilizers
where they can be easily serviced. Do not operate the
UV lamp with a new installation containing fish until
the water has been tested, showing that
the nitrification cycle has been completed and biologically
balanced.
Note:
See UV Specifications Charts for Inlet/Outlet Information. |

Canister Filter / Aquarium Installation
Pressurized Canister filters are commonly used with small
freshwater/saltwater aquariums. This diagram shows our EA
SMART UV Lite model. It is important to match the Canister
Filter’s flow rate to the capacity of the SMART UV.
If this is not plausible, use a by-pass manifold (see diagram
#3). To prevent back-siphoning, consider installing a check
valve or ball valve (see filter manufacturer’s instructions
for recommendations).

Wet-Dry
w/External or Submersible Pump Installation
This installation configuration shows the SMART UV capacity
matched to the recirculating flow rate performance of the pump.
We recommend mechanical filter media being used inside the over-flow
and at the top of the wet-dry filter.
Installing a check valve after the UV will
eliminate back siphoning. Installing true-
union ball valves will allow flow adjustments and UV removal.
For best results, install a saddle-style water flow meter,
mounted horizontally on the outlet side of the UV. Follow
the water flow meter manufacturer's instructions for proper
installation and operation.

Wet-Dry
w/External or Submersible Pump Installation
This installation configuration is identical to diagram 2 with
the addition of a by-pass manifold. The by-pass is used to deliver
a precise water flow to the SMART UV when the overall clean
water return flow rate exceeds the UV's capacity.
Installing a check
valve after the UV will eliminate back siphoning. Installing
true-
union ball valves will allow flow adjustments
and easy UV removal for servicing. For best results, install
a saddle-style water flow meter, mounted horizontally on the
outlet side of the
UV. Follow the water flow meter manufacturer's instructions
for proper installation and operation.
