Alfaa UV Industrial Water Purification: troubleshooting and FAQs
Troubleshooting tips and frequently asked questions for Alfaa UV Industrial Water Purification.
Troubleshooting tips
If the UV lamp fails to turn on, first check the power supply and ensure the ballast is functioning. Replace the lamp if it's near the end of its life (typically 9000 hours).
If water quality deteriorates, check the quartz sleeve for fouling or scaling. Clean it with a mild acid solution and inspect the UV intensity sensor for accuracy.
If the system shows a low flow rate, check for clogged pre-filters or a blocked inlet. Ensure the flow control valve is set correctly to maintain optimal UV dose.
If the UV intensity alarm sounds, verify that the lamp is properly seated and the quartz sleeve is clean. Also, check the water temperature; high temperatures can reduce UV output.
If there is a leak, inspect all O-rings and seals. Replace any worn parts and ensure the chamber is properly tightened to prevent water ingress.
