RQ-79 / RQ-850 Replacement UV Quartz Sleeve with O-Ring

Protect your UV lamp and maintain maximum disinfection performance with the RQ-79 / RQ-850 Replacement Quartz Sleeve. This high-purity silica glass sleeve is engineered to provide a protective thermal barrier for your UV lamp while allowing maximum UV-C light transparency to neutralize bacteria and viruses.

Specifically designed for compatibility with Atlas and Luminor UV systems, this sleeve is a direct replacement for the Atlas L79 and Luminor RQ-850 models. Each sleeve is supplied with a high-quality replacement O-ring to ensure a watertight seal and prevent leaks within the UV chamber.

Technical Compatibility

This quartz sleeve is manufactured to precise tolerances to fit the following professional UV disinfection systems:

• Atlas Models: Compatible with the Atlas L79 UV System.
• Luminor Models: Direct replacement for the Luminor RQ-850 Sleeve.
• Lamp Compatibility: Designed to house standard high-output UV lamps associated with these systems.
• Key Features & Benefits
• High UV-C Transmittance: Manufactured from premium clear fused quartz to ensure 99.9% of the germicidal UV light reaches the water.
• Watertight Seal: Includes a specialized replacement O-ring to maintain the integrity of the pressure vessel.
• Thermal Protection: Provides a stable operating environment for the UV lamp, protecting it from water temperature fluctuations.
• Durable Construction: Open-ended design (standard for these models) allows for easy cleaning and maintenance.

Maintenance Tip: Why Replace Your Quartz Sleeve?

While UV lamps are replaced annually, quartz sleeves should be inspected and cleaned every 6–12 months. Over time, minerals like calcium and iron create a "bio-film" or scale on the glass that blocks UV light.

• Cleaning: Use a mild acid or specialized scale remover to keep the sleeve clear.
• Replacement: If the sleeve is etched, scratched, or permanently clouded, it must be replaced immediately. A cloudy sleeve can reduce the effectiveness of your UV system by over 50%, even with a brand-new bulb.
