Safety Precautions:

It is recommended that this unit be installed and
maintained by a trained technician:

WARNING: UV Hazard. Always protect eyes from
ultraviolet light. NEVER look at UV lamps in
operation. Unplug or disconnect power before re­lamping or servicing.

WARNING: Severe eye damage or temporary
blinding may occur.

WARNING: DO NOT operate outside of Air Handler.
Mount lamp base to duct first.

WARNING: No openings in duct are allowed which
would give direct line-of-sight to the UV light.

In the event of accidental breakage or replacement of
the ultraviolet lamp, please ensure that the lamp is
disposed of in accordance with local and state
environmental laws regarding fluorescent lamps
containing mercury.

Notice:

All wiring inside of the duct or air handling system in
direct line of site of the UV lamp must be shielded with
aluminum foil tape or equivalent non-combustible
material. When installing this unit, select a mounting
location that prevents ultraviolet light exposure to
plastic flexible duct liner or other plastic components
with unknown resistance to ultraviolet light. Ultraviolet
light may cause color shift or structural degradation of
plastic HVAC components

The 24VAC units must be powered by a dedicated
independent 24VAC isolation transformer with a
minimum rating of 40VA or 60VA depending on
specific unit power consumption (see chart on
page 7).

General application guidelines for Ultramax Economy Ultraviolet air

purification systems

Ultravation manufactures several configurations

of Ultraviolet disinfection products to meet any

installation criteria. Ultravation two lamp

ultraviolet systems are designed to adequately

treat up to a 5 ton system or 3,500 sq ft.

Whenever possible use a two lamp configuration

with the longest lamp length possible for the

installation.

Ultravation suggests mounting on the exit side of

the HVAC system before the ductwork branches

off. This will ensure that the airborne

contaminants reaching the ultraviolet purification

system and the Re-Fresh Odor reduction module

have been reduced to an acceptable Micron size

by the HVAC systems filter.

Ultravation Ultramax products have been
designed for peak performance in the cooler
temperatures commonly found in the supply

plenum of a typical HVAC system.
