COMPATIBILITY
System Requirements
The Viqua 602804 replacement lamp is engineered exclusively for Viqua B and B4 series ultraviolet water disinfection systems. This lamp requires a compatible Viqua ballast designed for low-pressure high-output mercury vapor operation. Using non-genuine replacement lamps or mismatched ballast configurations will compromise UV output and system warranty. Verify your system model before ordering to ensure proper fit and electrical compatibility.
🔧 Replace your UV lamp at the full 9,000-hour mark even if it still appears to glow. UV output degrades over time below effective disinfection levels long before the lamp visibly fails, leaving your water vulnerable to microorganisms.
