hw®-UV-Replacement lamp model 3000 for hw®-UV-Watersterilizer model 3000 (55 Watt)
This replacement part is a tightly sealed UV-C-lamp / glass jacket unit for your hw®-UV-Water sterilizer model 3000 (55 Watt). After replacing this unit, your hw®-UV-Watersterilizer will again correspond to a new device in terms of performance.
The UV-lamp is a wearing part and should be replaced after about 10.000-12.000 operating hours at the latest, since although after this time visible light is frequently still emitted, there is only a very small part effective radiation. If your device is still one equipped with a starter, please also change this starter to protect the UV-lamp when changing the hw®-UV-Replacement lamp model 3000.

- Disconnect the mains plug and after this remove the hoses from the unit.
- To open the unit, it is best to place it flat on a table. Fully unscrew both screws located at the top on the side of the unit. The complete head piece can now be removed from the plastic tube and glass part. When doing this, ensure that no cable is disconnected.
- Remove the cable plug from the burner contacts. Carefully withdraw the glass part from the lower base. The old glass part can be removed after disconnecting the cable plug.

The starter holder is located easily accessible in the upper part of the plastic tube for easy replacement.) - Fit the new glass part in reverse order; the polarity of the plug is in this case irrelevant.
- To make insertion of the glass part easier, it is recommended to thinly apply some Vaseline to the ends of the glass part.
