Pura BUV-8 89571 UV Lamp

Description

The 89571 UV Lamp is the germicidal ultraviolet replacement bulb for the Pura BUV-8 (8 GPM) water disinfection system. It emits UV-C light (around 254 nm) that helps deactivate bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms in potable water — providing chemical-free water sterilization when installed in the system’s UV chamber.

Key Features

• Designed for Pura BUV-8 systems: Part #89571 is specified for the 8 GPM Class-B UV sterilizer.
• Typical service life ~9,000 hours: About 12 months of continuous operation before output declines.
• Restores germicidal performance: UV output decreases over time even if the lamp still glows; annual replacement ensures effective disinfection.
• Easy installation: Plug-style lamp designed for tool-free swap-out in the BUV-8 UV chamber.

Compatibility

• Specifically matched for Pura BUV-8 / ABUV-8 water disinfection systems.
• Works with the original quartz sleeve (Part 89574) and standard electrical ballast in the BUV-8.
• ⚠️ Always confirm the lamp part number on your specific unit before ordering.

Maintenance & Replacement Tips

• Replace annually (≈9000 hours): Even if the lamp still lights up, its germicidal UV-C output drops over time; yearly replacement is best practice.
• Service quartz sleeve: Clean or replace the quartz sleeve when you change the lamp to maintain high UV transmission.
• Handle carefully: Avoid touching the lamp glass with bare hands — skin oils reduce lamp life and performance.
