Method for utilizing an attachment assembly for quartz sleeve support

Abstract

A method for utilizing an attachment assembly for supporting a quartz sleeve to prevent vibration, comprising at least one vibration resistant member, a collar attachment member and a support plate. The vibration resistant member is adaptable to hold and support the quartz sleeve positioned inside an ultraviolet (UV) cylinder. The collar attachment member is configured to enclose the vibration resistant member. The support plate is configured to attach the collar attachment member containing the vibration resistant member with the UV cylinder. The attachment assembly can be attached to the UV cylinder wall directly or can be attached to a mounting device inside the UV cylinder wall.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A method for utilizing an attachment assembly for eliminating vibration of a quartz sleeve positioned inside an ultraviolet (UV) cylinder, the method comprising the steps of:
 a) providing the attachment assembly having at least one vibration resistant member enclosed by a collar attachment member connected with a support plate;   b) mounting the attachment assembly to a ring positioned at a fixed location at a distance inside the UV cylinder;   c) inserting the quartz sleeve into the UV cylinder through a first end plate of the UV cylinder;   d) guiding the quartz sleeve through the at least one vibration resistant member enclosed by the collar attachment member;   e) attaching the quartz sleeve with a second end plate of the UV cylinder; and   f) holding and steadily supporting the quartz sleeve by the at least one vibration resistant member enclosed by the collar attachment member to prevent vibration.
