All Sterilight UV systems include a quartz sleeve, which surrounds the lamp. The quartz material used in R-Can's quartz sleeves are a 100% fused silica which lend to the sleeve's high transmittance. A high transmittance is important as the UV light must travel through the sleeve to get to the water.

There are a variety of quartz sleeve designs, depending on the system that they are being used in. The QS-463 is an open ended quartz sleeve which is used in the Silver™, Silver 'Plus'™, the old style GOLD series, the 6 gpm 12V DC system and the 6 gpm vending system.
