Description
The Aquafine 17491LM UV lamp is the genuine-spec 41W germicidal replacement lamp for Aquafine CSL and RBE series ultraviolet sterilizers (cross reference 17491, 05-0453). UV Water Systems supplies it in Oman with delivery across Muscat and installation by our own technicians.
Why replace your Aquafine UV lamp on time
A UV lamp keeps glowing long after it stops doing its job. UV-C output drops by roughly 30–40% by the end of its rated life, so the sterilizer may no longer deliver the dose needed to inactivate bacteria, viruses and cysts. Most water treatment standards recommend replacing the lamp every 12 months (about 9,000 hours of continuous running), even when it still looks bright. In Oman, where tanker water and storage tanks warm up quickly in summer, a weak lamp is a real risk for hospitals, hotels, food plants and villas.
Key features
- 41 watt low-pressure lamp – emits 254 nm UV-C, the wavelength that damages microbial DNA.
- 843 mm (approx. 30 in) arc tube – exact fit for Aquafine CSL and RBE chambers.
- Single-ended pin base – plugs straight into the existing lamp connector; no rewiring.
- Long service life – rated around 9,000–10,000 hours of operation.
- Chemical-free disinfection – no taste, odour or by-products added to the water.
Compatible systems and applications
This Aquafine replacement UV lamp suits Aquafine CSL and RBE series units and equivalents that take part number 17491 or 05-0453. Typical sites in Oman include:
- Hospital and laboratory RO / DI water lines
- Hotel, restaurant and café drinking water and ice machines
- Food and beverage processing plants
- Villa and building main-line disinfection after storage tanks
- Industrial process and rinse water
Maintenance tips
- Replace the UV lamp every 12 months, or sooner if the UV intensity monitor alarms.
- Clean or replace the quartz sleeve when you change the lamp. A scaled sleeve blocks UV light, and Oman’s hard water scales sleeves quickly.
- Handle the lamp with clean gloves; skin oils on the quartz reduce output.
- Never look at a lit UV lamp – UV-C harms eyes and skin.
