Wyckomar RQD-895 UV Quartz Sleeve for 700/1200

Description

The Wyckomar RQD-895 UV Quartz Sleeve is a genuine replacement quartz tube designed for use in Wyckomar ultraviolet water disinfection systems—specifically the UV-700 and UV-1200 series. Quartz sleeves are an essential part of a UV system’s reactor chamber: they encase and protect the UV lamp while allowing maximum transmission of germicidal UV-C light into the water. Without a clear, intact sleeve, water can contact the lamp or UV transmission can be reduced, compromising disinfection performance.

The RQD-895 quartz sleeve serves as the protective barrier between the high-intensity UV lamp and the water flowing through the UV chamber. It ensures that the UV lamp remains isolated from water while letting UV-C energy pass with minimal loss—critical for reliable inactivation of bacteria, viruses, and other pathogens.

Key Features & Benefits

• OEM-quality replacement: Specifically engineered for Wyckomar UV-700 and UV-1200 water sterilizers.
• High-transparency quartz: Allows maximum UV-C light transmission for effective disinfection.
• Durable construction: Fused quartz withstands thermal stress and exposure to UV over regular service life.
• Easy service fit: Designed to match the original dome/sleeve dimensions for straightforward replacement.
• Critical component: Maintains separation between the UV lamp and water to prevent electrical shorts and maintain system integrity.

Compatibility

This quartz sleeve is compatible with the following Wyckomar UV systems (verify your model before ordering):

• Wyckomar UV-700 Sterilizer (3/4″ MNPT flow)
• Wyckomar UV-1200 Sterilizer (1″ MNPT flow)

⚠️ Always check your specific UV model and part number to ensure proper fit.

Maintenance

• Replace when cloudy or stained: Over time mineral scale or deposits can form on the sleeve, reducing UV transmission—cleaning may help, but replacement is recommended if clarity cannot be restored.
• Annual inspection: Check the quartz sleeve whenever you service the UV lamp (recommended about every 9,000 hours or annually).
• Handle with care: Quartz is brittle—avoid touching the glass with bare hands; if touched, clean with alcohol before installation.

Why It Matters

The quartz sleeve is a vital element in UV disinfection systems. It keeps the UV lamp protected from water contact while allowing UV-C light to disinfect the water effectively. A damaged or fouled sleeve can significantly decrease UV penetration and reduce the system’s ability to inactivate microorganisms.

Keep your Wyckomar UV system operating at peak performance with this genuine RQD-895 Quartz Sleeve—an essential service replacement part for long-term, safe, chemical-free water disinfection.
