This section covers topics that are specific to the UV Series.  

The Flex Dosimetry or Flex Timer operating instructions are covered on pages sixteen (16) through 
twenty-two (22).   

 

UV Series Unpacking & Assembly 

The UV Series full-body device is shipped upright in a large cardboard container.  Exercise caution as 
the fluorescent lamps can be broken if the unit is not unpacked properly.   

Using as many people as available but at least two, move the box into the area where the device will 
be used.  If there are no stairs, and since the unit is on castors, it may be easier to remove it from the 
box at the earliest opportunity so that you can simply roll it into position.  If there are stairs, you may 
consider hiring a professional moving company to move the device into position. 

To unpack the unit, first use metal cutters to cut the banding that encircles the package.  Use extreme 
caution as these bands are under tension and can snap outward when the tension is released.  Next, 
remove the front cardboard cover.  Use a heavy-duty screwdriver to remove the staples.   Again be 
careful as the staples are sharp and can cause injury.   When the front cardboard cover has been 
removed, carefully pull the device forward on its castors until it is clear of the box.  Take care not to 
discard the accessory package which contains your protective eyewear. 

Once in position, remove the shipping bars.  A ¾” end wrench will be required to loosen and remove 
the bolts that hold the shipping bars in place.  There is no further assembly required other than to plug 
the unit into the appropriate electrical outlet (See Electrical Outlet Requirements below).  If your 
device is equipped with an optional platform, place the platform inside the machine once it is located 
in its final position.   

Circuit Breaker 

Each UV Series unit is equipped with a circuit breaker that is 
located under the  frame, at the back right hand side of the 
machine.  Its location is indicated by the circuit breaker label 
(right).  When setting up your unit, ensure that the breaker is in 
the ON position.    

UV Series Electrical Requirements 

The number of lamps in a unit determines the voltage, amperage, wire size and outlet necessary to 
safely support the unit’s operation.  The table and diagrams below define these requirements for each
