The VIQUA VP950M UV water purification system is engineered to provide safe and clean water for both whole house and commercial applications. This advanced system utilizes ultraviolet light to effectively neutralize harmful microorganisms in water, ensuring a reliable and continuous supply of treated water. Designed for high flow rates up to 34 GPM, the VP950M incorporates a sophisticated UV sensor technology for real-time intensity monitoring, providing consistent performance and peace of mind. This manual provides essential information for the proper installation, operation, and maintenance of your VP950M system.
2. Коопсуздук маалыматы
Please read all safety instructions carefully before installing or operating the VIQUA VP950M system. Failure to comply with these instructions could result in injury or damage to the product.
- Электр коопсуздугу: Ensure the system is connected to a properly grounded electrical outlet. Disconnect power before performing any maintenance or service. The system operates on 230V.
- UV нурлануу: Never look directly at the illuminated UV lamp. Exposure to UV light can cause severe eye and skin damage. The system is designed to contain UV light safely when properly assembled.
- Суунун басымы: Ensure water pressure is within the recommended operating range to prevent damage to the system.
- Орнотуу: It is recommended that installation be performed by a qualified plumber or technician to ensure proper setup and compliance with local codes.
- Температура: Do not install the system where it may be exposed to freezing temperatures.
3. Components Overview
The VIQUA VP950M system consists of several key components that work together to purify your water.

- UV Reactor Chamber: A durable stainless steel vessel where water is exposed to UV light.
- УВ Лamp: The high-output (HO) UV lamp emits germicidal ultraviolet light.
- Кварц жеңи: A protective glass tube that encases the UV lamp, separating it from the water while allowing UV light to pass through.
- BA-ICE-CM Controller: The electronic control unit that powers the UV lamp, monitors system performance, and features an LED display for lamp life tracking and a countdown timer.
- UV сенсор: Integrated into the system to monitor real-time UV intensity, ensuring optimal treatment.
4. Орнотуу жана орнотуу
Proper installation is crucial for the effective operation of your VIQUA VP950M system. Follow these general guidelines:
- Жайгашкан жери: Choose a location that provides easy access for maintenance, is protected from freezing, and is close to a grounded electrical outlet.
- Pre-filtration: It is highly recommended to install appropriate pre-filtration (e.g., sediment filter) upstream of the UV system to ensure water clarity and prevent particles from shielding microorganisms from UV light.
- Сантехникалык байланыштар: Connect the system using the 1" MNPT connections. Ensure all plumbing connections are secure and leak-free. The system should be installed after any other water treatment devices (softeners, filters) but before the water enters the main distribution lines.
- Монтаждоо: Securely mount the UV reactor chamber horizontally or vertically using appropriate mounting hardware.
- Электр байланышы: Connect the BA-ICE-CM controller to the UV lamp and then plug the controller into a dedicated 230V grounded electrical outlet.
- Системаны ишке киргизүү: Once all connections are made, slowly turn on the water supply to fill the UV chamber. Check for leaks. Then, power on the system.
5. Иштөө нускамалары
The VIQUA VP950M system is designed for continuous operation, providing 24/7 water purification. The BA-ICE-CM controller provides essential feedback on system status.
- Күч көрсөткүчү: The controller will display a power indicator when the system is operational.
- Lamp Life Countdown: The LED display on the controller shows a countdown timer indicating the remaining lamp life. This feature helps you anticipate when a lamp өзгөртүү талап кылынат.
- UV Intensity Monitoring: The integrated UV sensor continuously monitors the UV intensity within the chamber. If the UV intensity drops below a safe operating level, a low UV intensity alarm will activate, indicating a potential issue with the lamp or water quality.
- Агым ылдамдыгы: The system is designed to treat water effectively at flow rates up to 34 GPM, providing a UV dose of no less than 40 mJ/cm² at 26 GPM, even at the end of its lamp жашоо.
6. Техникалык тейлөө
Regular maintenance ensures the continued effectiveness and longevity of your VIQUA VP950M system.
- УВ Лamp Алмаштыруу: UV лamp has a limited effective life (typically 9,000 hours or approximately 12 months of continuous operation). The controller's countdown timer will alert you when a lamp change is due. The lamp can be easily replaced without tools. Always use genuine VIQUA replacement lamps.
- Quartz Sleeve Cleaning: The quartz sleeve should be cleaned periodically (e.g., every 3-6 months) to remove any mineral deposits or fouling that could reduce UV light transmission. Turn off power and drain the system before removing and cleaning the sleeve with a soft cloth and a mild acid solution (e.g., citric acid or vinegar).
- Quartz Sleeve Replacement: The quartz sleeve should be replaced every 24 months or if it becomes scratched or damaged.
- Pre-filter Replacement: Regularly replace any pre-filters installed upstream of the UV system according to their manufacturer's recommendations to ensure optimal water quality entering the UV chamber.
