UV systems come with a feature laden controller that incorporates both the lamp driver (ballast)
and control features in one water-ght case. Four main controllers are available (depending on
your model). All four models feature a power factor corrected, constant current lamp driver with
a universal power input.
Please Note: While the LED or display screen is red and the buzzer is sounding the water from
the system should NOT be consumed. If any water does pass through the system during this
period, please follow the disinfecon procedure as outlined in this manual before the water is
consumed. For UV4 and UV5 systems, even though they have a visual and audible warning built
into the controller, a green LED or status screen does not necessarily indicate that the water
coming from this system is in fact potable (safe to drink). These systems do not measure the level
of disinfecon; they simply measure the “on-o” status of the lamp. Please have your water
checked for microbiological contaminants on a regular basis.

Simplisc in operaon, these systems feature a tri-
colour LED that indicang system status and a 4-digit
display to indicate lamp life remaining. Pressing the
buon will change the display to indicate total running
me. When the UV lamp is on and within its operang
age, the LED will be green. When the UV lamp is not on
or the lamp life has expired, the LED will be illuminated
red and an audible buzzer will be sounding. To remedy
this condion, the UV lamp must be replaced with a
new genuine SpringWell UV lamp.

A full colour LCD screen provides the user with a
detailed descripon of the system’s performance in
addion to providing any applicable fault messages
and system diagnoscs. The controllers used in both
the UV5 and UV6
are idencal. The dierence is that
the UV6 series of products includes a UV intensity
monitor. All UV5 and UV6 controllers include an
“innite expandability port” located on the right side
of the controller. Simply plug in an oponal UV sensor
module into the expandability port of a UV5 controller
and the system will now monitor the UV intensity of
the system!
UV5 and UV6 Power-up Sequence
On start up, the controller will run through a diagnosc start-up and the sequence will be
displayed as follows on the colour LCD:
