WA RN IN G
Ultraviolet (UV) light can be harmful to eyes and skin,
causing loss of sight and sunburn. When installing, do
not put in an area that allows the UV lamp to be visible . Turn off electrical service before servicing unit.
Electrical shock hazard from 120/277 VAC may cause
serious injury or death. Disconnect power before starting installation or maintenance.
Each UV lamp contains a small amount of mercury. In
case of breakage, use proper disposal techniques.
Wear protective gloves and safety glasses when handling lamp. To prevent injury, unplug lamp connector
and allow to cool for 10 minutes before servicing.
Electrical disconnect may be required. Installations of
UV units should have a access panel disconnect switch
installed. (Disconnect switch not included)
CAUTION
1. Ultraviolet (UV) light can cause the degradation
of plastics, rubber, and other non-metallic materials with out uv-inhibitors, used in the HVAC system.
• Install unit in location that prevents exposure to
plastics, rubber, and other non-metallic materials
to UV light, or shield such materials with aluminum tape, sheet metal, or metal conduit.
• If equipment or components are not made of UV
resistant materials, shield with aluminum tape or
sheet metal.
2. Ultraviolet lamps:
• Do not install lamp inside coil.
• Do not install lamp below any water source.
• Failure to remove fingerprints from lamp could
shorten the lifespan of the lamp.
• Dispose of broken and replacement lamps at your
local waste management office. For information

1. Install the lamps where you have easy access.
2. Before drilling into equipment, make sure that there is nothing in the way that would be damaged.
3. The lamp should be installed a minimum of 2-3 inches, maximum 39 inches, away from the coil or pan surface.
4. Use one or more units to treat the coil surface area, as shown in Fig.1 and Fig.2. Areas shaded from direct
exposure to the lamps will not be disinfected. The greater the amount of coil and drain pan area exposed to
the lamp, the greater the amount of biological disinfection. For approximate sizing, use the following approximated coverage areas for the units:
• 2000-230 OD/3018—1200 square inches
• 3024 –1700 square inches
• 3032—2100 square inches
5. When looking for a mounting location, try to install the unit away from non UV resistant plastics, rubber,
and other non metallic materials. Shield these components using sheet metal, aluminum tape, or metal con-
