Facts About the MicrobeSwatter® SweetShot

The MicrobeSwatter® SweetShot utilizes the contaminant
ghting technology of ultraviolet light to dramatically reduce
airborne contaminants circulating through a heating and
air conditioning system. The MicrobeSwatter® SweetShot,
however, is 2 to 3 times more powerful than many commonly
used ultraviolet light products. This enhanced power provides
far greater contaminant destruction and results in signicantly
improved indoor air quality.

IMPORTANT POINTS FOR INSTALLATION

The MicrobeSwatter® SweetShot is exclusively for use in
HVAC systems to eradicate germicidal contamination and
improve indoor air quality. The MicrobeSwatter® SweetShot is
creatively designed for ease of installation and convenient
service. Cut just one, 2” hole and install. No screws are
needed or additional holes drilled. The UV lamp assembly is
held in place against a metal surface with strong magnets.

INSTALLATION

WARNING

Electrical Shock –The unit is to be wired into 24 VAC
electrical power.

Component Failure May Result – Dedicated 50 VA
transformer required, not included.

Ultraviolet Light is Harmful – Never look at a lit ultraviolet
lamp without UV protective glasses and skin coverings.
Unplug the lamp before servicing.

Ultraviolet Lamp May Cause Injury – Ultraviolet lamps
are made of glass and therefore somewhat fragile. Safety
glasses and gloves should be worn when handling a UV
lamp. In addition, UV lamps can be very hot and cause skin
burns. Allow lamp to cool before handling.

1. Cut a 2” round hole in duct or plenum with a hole saw or
duct knife for insertion of the UV lamp.

2. Insert the lamp into the hole. Magnets on the mounting
plate will hold the UV lamp assembly secure – no screws
are necessary. If mounting on ductboard, secure unit
with tape, or cut a piece of sheet metal 4” x 4” and cut 2”
hole in middle. Tape sheet metal plate to ductboard
and insert lamp through holes.

3. Attach power supply in a suitable location and connect the
power supply to 24VAC power.

The MicrobeSwatter® SweetShot requires a 50 VA

Transformer to correctly power ultraviolet lamp air

 purier.

4. Connect lamp cable from power supply to lamp.

5. If mounting inside duct, order AGMGF magnetic mounting
bracket (accessory not included). Attach UV lamp assembly
to mounting bracket and attach bracket (with magnet on
backside) to any metal surface – no screws are necessary.
