Quartz Sleeves are very important components of any stainless steel UV light.
The UV bulb (Lamp) must never physical contact with the actual water, as this would “short out” the bulb.
The Quartz sleeves create a transparent barrier through which the UV light’s rays can pass to neutralise the bacteria in the source water, while preventing the water from ever making physical contact with the bulb.
In normal circumstances the quartz sleeve should never require replacement, and just requires cleaning with rubbing alcohol from time to time.
However, if the the quartz sleeve is mishandle or dropped it can crack or shatter.
