A clean, intact quartz sleeve is essential for UV clarifier effectiveness. The sleeve protects the UV lamp from direct water contact while allowing UV-C light to pass through to treat the water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCritical Component for UV Clarifier Performance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe quartz sleeve in a UV clarifier transmits over 90% of UV-C wavelengths while keeping the lamp dry. If the sleeve becomes clouded with mineral deposits or algae, UV transmission drops and the clarifier loses effectiveness against green water algae. A cracked or broken sleeve allows water to reach the lamp, causing immediate failure.

Slide out the old sleeve and inspect the O-ring seals on both ends. Replace O-rings if worn (O-ring kit sold separately). Insert the new quartz sleeve carefully, ensuring the end O-rings seat properly. Do not touch the quartz surface with bare hands. Oils from skin reduce UV transmission. Reconnect the lamp and power before restarting the filter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIdeal for PondMax PF Series filter owners performing annual UV maintenance or replacing a sleeve damaged during cleaning or handling.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PondMax","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55144320532799,"sku":"31PS264","price":61.98,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/8260\/9215\/files\/PondMax-quartz-sleeves.jpg?v=1787342332","url":"https:\/\/pondsonline.ca\/products\/pondmax-replacement-quartz-sleeve-for-pf-w-9w-uv","provider":"Ponds Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
