Viqua / Sterilight QS-287D UV Sleeve

We are pleased to offer a complete selection of replacement quartz sleeves for all Sterilight ultraviolet (UV) sterilizers.

Sterilight Model #QS-287D replacement sleeves are designed only for use in Sterilight or Viqua UV sterilizers. We do not recommend that you attempt to use Sterilight replacement sleeves in models made by other manufacturers.

It is critical that only genuine Sterilight brand original equipment sleeves be used in your system. It has come to our attention that a number of Chinese manufacturers are making knock-off replica UV sleeves. While they may physically fit in a Sterilight or Viqua system, they are NOT compatible. Testing of a wide range of these sleeves has shown that many do not allow a safe UV dose to pass through the sleeve and may be subject to failure.

Sterilight QS-287D is the sleeve for the following models:

• SC2.5

Problem rectified
I purchased a UV lamp sterilizer and it was broken upon arrival. I called service and explained the situation and they assisted me and a replacement lamp was shipped free of charge within 3 days. I appreciate this quick response time since I drink the lake water. Thank you. - Carol Hislop

Easy to use website. Order accurate and quickly arrived, all was perfect! - Jeff Adam
Not so easy to use
Instructions were not great. Also it would help if the glass had a marker at the top and bottom to ensure proper positioning. Had to redo three times before it would stop leaking. - Doris S

Viqua Sterilight QS-287D Sleeve Customer Questions & Answers

Question:	Does this come with the O-rings
Answer(s):	Yes, all Viqua sleeves and lamp / sleeve combos come with the necessary o-rings By HomePlus Water on Feb 15, 2024

It is critical that only genuine Viqua brand original equipment lamps be used in your system. It has come to our attention that a number of Chinese manufacturers are making knock-off replica UV lamps. While they may physically fit in a Viqua system, they are NOT compatible. Testing of a wide range of these lamps has shown that many do not provide a safe UV dose or offer protection for the stated lamp life, and in some cases have even caused the failure of the ballast/controller and melting of the lamp harness.
