It is recognized as an exact fit for the Pondmaster UV unit, ensuring a straightforward and hassle free installation process.

Know before you buy
No, this sleeve is specifically engineered as an OEM replacement for the Pondmaster #02940 and Pro-Line PUV-4000 systems. It is not a universal part and should only be used with these specific models to ensure a proper, watertight seal.
Over time, quartz sleeves can become clouded by mineral deposits or develop hairline cracks, both of which block UV light from reaching the water. Replacing a damaged or dirty sleeve restores the clarifier's ability to effectively neutralize algae.
You should inspect the sleeve for cracks or heavy buildup whenever you perform routine maintenance on your UV clarifier, typically at the start of each pond season. If the glass is etched, scratched, or permanently clouded, it should be replaced to maintain optimal performance.
No, you must use a quartz sleeve. Quartz is specifically used because it allows UV-C light to pass through it effectively, whereas standard glass blocks the majority of UV radiation, rendering the clarifier useless.
Handle the new quartz sleeve with care, as it is fragile. Ensure that all O-rings are clean and properly seated during installation to prevent water from leaking into the electrical housing, which could damage the bulb or the unit.
