The UV-12C,18C,28C,12HPC,18HPC, and 28HPC units are equipped with a circuit board to monitor the operation of the UV lamp; it indicates the operation of the lamp through an LED indicator light mounted on the cover of the unit. The circuit board indicates good operation of the lamp by a continuous “GREEN” color on the LED light. After 8,320 hours of lamp operation, the circuit board indicates the elapsed time of lamp operation by a continuous “YELLOW” color on the LED light and the internal alarm will beep every 15 minutes. After 9,000 hours of lamp operation, the circuit board indicates the elapsed time of lamp operation by a continuous “RED” color on the LED light and the internal alarm will beep every 5 minutes. The board also checks if the UV lamp is burned out. If the lamp is burned out, the circuit board will indicate this by a continuous “RED” color on the LED and the internal alarm will beep every 5 minutes.

WARNING: Before installing or servicing a humidifier, air filter, heat system, or this unit, etc., always turn all power OFF and have unit unplugged. Electrical shock can cause personal injury or death. Never expose eyes or skin to direct UVC light from any source.

WARNING: To prevent water damage or electric shock, do not mount unit under a humidifier.

WARNING: Designed for a closed duct system. Do not mount near a supply or a return air opening.

WARNING: This product is designed for indoor installation only (i.e. attics, crawl spaces, basements, etc.). For use on gas fired, oil fired, electric and split system heat pump forced air systems*. This product is NOT designed to be mounted outside on gas fired or heat pump packaged units**.

*Split system heat pumps are systems where the air handler and the air conditioning compressor are separate units.

**Packaged units are systems where the air handler and the air conditioning compressor are built together and are installed outside of the building

WARNING: Never expose eyes or skin to UVC light from any source. Looking directly at the UVC light may cause permanent eye damage or blindness. Never operate the UV-Aire™ Air Purifying System out of the plenum. Avoid touching the glass portion of the lamp with your hands. Page 2

III.INSTALLATION

1.Locate a suitable location for the unit downstream from the ‘A’ coil in the supply plenum or in the return plenum; preferably downstream from the air filter. For optimum “cleaning” effect on the ‘A’ coil, mount the unit in the supply plenum as close as possible to the ‘A’ coil. (See Figure 1)

Figure 1

WARNING: Never expose eyes or skin to UVC light from any source. Looking directly at the UVC light may cause permanent eye damage or blindness. Never operate the UV-Aire™ Air Purifying System out of the plenum. Avoid touching the glass portion of the lamp with your hands.

2. Determine the type of duct you have.

(For flex duct applications, refer to Figure 26 on page 11)

IF YOU HAVE METAL DUCT:

a. Apply supplied wet and stick mounting template to air duct in either a vertical or horizontal position as shown in Figure 2.

b. Drill 1/8” diameter mounting holes at positions indicated on template.

c.Cut out the marked openings on the template. (Refer to template as shown in Figure 2)

d.

Remove the paper template from the duct.

 

IF YOU HAVE DUCT BOARD:

 

a.

Mount the supplied metal mounting plate onto the duct with

Figure 2

 

duct tape in either a vertical or horizontal position (See Figure 2 & 3)

b.Bend tabs outward as shown in figure 4.

c.Using a knife or blade, cut out a rectangle opening in the duct using the mounting plate as a template. (See Figure 5)

d.Remove the cut piece of duct. (See Figure 6)

e.Bend both tabs down and through duct at first bend point. (See Figures 7& 8)

f.Bend both tabs at the second bend point up or down to pinch the duct material and grip the duct material. (See Figures 9 & 10)

g.Using a screwdriver or pointed object, locate mounting holes by poking holes through the duct tape. (See Figure 11)
