System Configuration
1.
Determine the dimensions of the coils or area to be irradiated.
2.
Use the following guidelines to estimate the number of lamps
needed for proper coverage.
Fresh-Aire UV offers a free system configuration consultation service for commercial
projects. Contact Fresh-Aire UV for details.
UV Lamp Configuration Guidelines
• Maximum germicidal effectiveness is within an 18” radius from UV lamp center axis
• The optimal distance between UV lamp(s) and the irradiated surface is 12”
• The distance between stacked UV lamps should not exceed 35”
• The distance between end to end UV lamps should not exceed 12”
• The distance of UV lamp ends to the edge of irradiated surface should not exceed 6”

Before attaching the
L-Brackets
for mounting use the
Optimal Irradiation
Distance
and
Lamp Spacing
diagrams to confirm that when installed the
UV
Lamps
will be positioned properly.
4.
The
APCO® Rack System
can be configured to fit virtually any commercial/industrial
HVAC application. Modules can be “daisy-chained” end to end or offset to achieve the
desired width.
