7. Do not remove any labels or devices.
8.
9. Do not operate the fixture if there is visible or suspected damage to the fixture or, if applicable, there is damage
10. Keep inlet and outlet, of the blowers, clean and clear of debris.
11.
12. Stay clear of blowers, or other moving parts that can cause injuries.
13. Utility power supplied, to the fixture, MUST match power requirements listed on the unit label.
14. Always disconnect power to the unit before performing any service or maintenance.
15. Read and follow all notices and warnings on the fixture.
16. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

PRODUCT APPLICATION
ConstruCtion
The SANITAIRE® Room Air Sanitizer Model RSCS280A consists of:
®
• STER-L-RAY
This wavelength is highly effective against microbes including: virus, bacteria, and mold spores.
germicidal ultraviolet rays without approved ultraviolet blocking face shield and protective covering (such as gloves,
long sleeves with no gaps between cuffs and gloves).
• A SureliteTM Electronic Ballast capable of operating at 120v 50/60 Hz. Other power supplies may be available. Contact
factory for specifics.
• A polished reflector, whose design and specular aluminum construction maximizes ultraviolet intensity within
the exposure chamber.
• Power Cord - For 120v AC 50/60Hz single-phase standard household current, a NEMA 5-15, three-prong plug is provided for
a properly grounded outlet. (Consult factory for other plug types)
• Promate
allergens that pass through the filter. Filters are made with a heavy duty aluminum frame and a special weaved filter for years
of filtration.
• A louvered exhaust, which restricts ultraviolet radiation from passing into the room, protecting the room’s occupants from
ultraviolet exposure.
• Indicator LED’s work in pairs to provide a visual indication if a lamp has failed.
• All electronics and wiring are housed in an enclosure constructed of stainless steel. Stainless steel construction provides
strength, durability, and will withstand most harsh environments.
• An interlock safety switch. The interlock switch interrupts power to the sanitizer, when the access door is opened from
the lamp / exposure chamber.
Germicidal Ultraviolet Lamps deliver ultraviolet energy at the specific wavelength of 254 nanometers (nm).
Germicidal ultraviolet rays are harmful to eyes and skin; avoid exposure of direct or reflected
TM
Promate permanent, washable, electrostatic intake filter is electrostatically charged to trap up to 94% of dust and
PrinCiPle of oPeration
The SANITAIRE® Room Air Sanitizer is categorized as a germicidal ultraviolet fixture that utilizes germicidal ultraviolet lamps
that are completely enclosed within an exposure chamber and is safe for use in a clean, dry environment. The SANITAIRE®
effectively destroys airborne microbes including: bacteria, mold and virus in enclosed spaces.
The SANITAIRE® design has been carefully conceived to provide germicidal ultraviolet exposure for air disinfection. The
dosage, as it applies to ultraviolet disinfection, is a function of time, and the intensity, of ultraviolet radiation, to which the air
is exposed. The exposure time, in seconds, is the total time it takes the air to move through the ultraviolet field, produced by the
germicidal lamps.
All components are mounted in a stainless steel frame. Access to the lamp/exposure chamber is gained through the interlocked,
access door. Fixture operation can be monitored from the base panel.
The operation of the SANITAIRE® Room Air Sanitizer Model RSCS280A is as follows:
1. Air is drawn into the fixture through the the louvered filter panel.
2. The air is forced into the exposure chamber, where it is irradiated by the germicidal ultraviolet lamps.
3. LED indicator lights provide positive indication of operation of germicidal ultraviolet lamps.
4. The purified air exits the fixture, through the louvered exhaust panel, located at the opposite end of the fixture.
