Best practice (UV systems)
- Replace your UV lamp on schedule (the ballast’s counter helps you stay on top of it).
- Keep the ballast mounted where airflow is reasonable and temperature stays within spec.
- If your system alarms or shows a fault, check lamp seating/connection first, then lamp condition.
