Key Features:

• Premium Stainless Steel Body: Constructed from high-grade, corrosion-resistant stainless steel. Its highly reflective inner surface amplifies UV light intensity for faster, more effective sterilization.

• High-Purity Quartz Glass Tube: Includes a premium quartz glass sleeve that shields the UV lamp from water flow while allowing 99.9% of ultraviolet rays to pass through without distortion.

• 100% Leak-Proof Design: Equipped with heavy-duty end caps and precision-fit silicon O-rings to ensure a watertight seal, even under high pump pressure.

• Maximized Sterilization: The combination of quartz glass and a reflective steel chamber ensures that every drop of water passing through gets maximum exposure to germ-killing UV light.

• Universal Compatibility: Designed with standard inlet/outlet ports to seamlessly fit into almost all domestic cabinet-style RO+UV water purifiers.

• Easy Maintenance: The barrel can be easily opened to clean the quartz glass or replace the internal UV lamp without replacing the entire housing.

Highlights & Specifications:

1. Product Customer Care Number:

For assistance, installation, or service, contact Aqua Impact Customer Care: +91 94251-49115. Our expert support team helps you with troubleshooting, part replacement, and installation guidance. You can schedule service visits or installation requests directly through our phone support. Customer satisfaction is our top priority.

2. Product Related Do’s & Don’ts:

Do’s:

• Always install the UV barrel after the RO membrane as the final stage of purification to ensure the water is crystal clear before UV exposure.

• Handle the quartz glass tube with extreme care; it is highly fragile and can break if dropped or subjected to sudden pressure.

• Ensure the O-rings are seated perfectly inside the end caps before tightening to prevent water leaks.

Don’ts:

• Do not touch the quartz glass with bare, oily fingers. Fingerprints or oils left on the glass can block UV light and reduce sterilization efficiency. Always hold it with a clean, dry cloth.

• Do not over-tighten the end caps, as excessive pressure can crack the internal quartz glass tube.

• Never look directly at an illuminated UV lamp outside the barrel; UV light can cause severe eye damage.

3. Product Repair & Troubleshoots:

Common UV Barrel issues and quick fixes:

• Leakage from the End Caps: The most common issue. Ensure the end caps are screwed on properly. Check if the internal silicon O-rings are missing, misaligned, or damaged.

• Water Coming Out of the Lamp Wire Hole: This indicates that the internal quartz glass tube has cracked or broken, allowing water to enter the dry lamp chamber. The quartz glass must be replaced immediately, and the UV lamp should be checked for water damage.

• UV Lamp Not Glowing: While not a barrel issue directly, check if water has leaked into the lamp chamber due to a loose O-ring, which may have shorted the lamp or UV choke.

If the issue persists, contact Customer Care (+91 94251-49115) to book a professional technician.

4. Product Service Guide & Future Service Schedule:

The UV Barrel is a durable housing, but the internal quartz glass requires occasional maintenance.

• Lifespan: The stainless steel barrel can last the lifetime of the purifier. The quartz glass should be replaced if it gets permanently clouded or scratched.

• Maintenance Tip: Every 6 to 12 months, the quartz glass should be carefully removed and cleaned with a soft cloth and a mild descaling solution to remove hard water stains. A cloudy glass blocks UV light and renders the UV lamp useless.

• Service Visit: Service visit charges generally range from ₹200–₹400, depending on your location.

5. Product Installation Guide:

Steps (For Authorized Technicians or Experienced Users):

1. Turn off the main water supply and unplug the RO purifier.

2. Carefully remove the existing UV barrel by disconnecting the 1/4″ input and output water pipes.

3. Gently pull the UV lamp out of the old barrel’s electrical socket.

4. Take the new Aqua Impact UV Barrel. Open one end cap and carefully insert the Quartz Glass Tube (ensure the O-rings are properly placed on both ends of the glass).

5. Tighten the end caps securely by hand to create a watertight seal. Do not over-tighten.

6. Connect the elbow fittings to the input and output ports (use Teflon tape if they are threaded fittings).

7. Connect the water pipes (Output from the RO membrane to the UV input; UV output to the post-carbon filter or tank).

8. Carefully slide your existing UV lamp inside the dry quartz glass tube and attach the protective wiring caps.

9. Turn on the water and electricity. Check for leaks around the end caps before closing the cabinet.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):

Q1. What is the purpose of the Quartz Glass? The quartz glass sleeve sits inside the stainless steel barrel. Its job is to create a dry tunnel for the electrical UV lamp to sit inside, keeping it completely separated from the flowing water. Quartz is used instead of normal glass because it allows 99.9% of UV rays to pass through, whereas normal glass blocks UV light.

Q2. Does this product include the actual UV Lamp (bulb)? No, this listing is for the Stainless Steel Barrel Assembly and the Quartz Glass Tube. The internal electrical UV lamp (bulb) and the UV Choke are sold separately or can be reused from your old assembly.

Q3. Is a stainless steel barrel better than a plastic UV barrel? Yes. Stainless steel acts as a mirror, reflecting UV light rays continuously inside the chamber, which drastically increases the sterilization efficiency. Over time, plastic barrels can degrade, crack, and release microplastics due to constant UV light exposure.

Q4. My UV barrel is leaking from the sides. What should I do? Turn off the water supply immediately. Open the end caps and check the small rubber O-rings. If they are pinched, misaligned, or missing, the barrel will leak. Re-seat them carefully and tighten the caps.

Q5. Can I use this with any brand’s UV lamp? Yes, the internal dimensions of the quartz glass are standard and designed to fit almost all domestic 11W and 8W UV lamps used in popular RO purifiers.
