INSTALLATION:
• Do not locate the germicidal lamps in direct sight of plastic material that will be exposed to the UV light, such as
wiring, return-side humidifier or certain types of air filters. Check with the filter manufacturer to see if their material
is UV resistant. Over time, UV light may degrade plastic.
• Do not touch the glass portion of the lamps with bare hands because oils from the hands can cause “hot spots”
which reduce lamp life. Handle either by the end caps or use a soft cloth. If you accidentally touch a lamp, wipe it
off, using the included alcohol cleaning pad or a soft cloth dampened with rubbing alcohol.
INSTALLING THE GERMICIDAL UNIT
MOUNTING GERMICIDAL LAMP AND POWER SUPPLY (supply or return side plenum)
1. Unplug mid-cord connector by pressing the lock release (marked “PRESS” on the connector.) (see photo B)
Remove two thumb nuts holding moisture resistant lamp socket to mounting plate and remove from the plate.
2. Using the lamp mounting plate as a template, draw the hole pattern on the air duct in a suitable location.
Do not install the UVC lamps where there is a straight line of sight of the lamps through a vent.
When choosing a location to mount the lamps, make certain no UV light is visible to the consumer.
3. Using a 1 1/4 inch Vari-Bit
®
, make two holes side by side. Clean off excess metal between the two
holes with tin snips. Alternately cut a 2” hole.
4. Peel off the gasket backing from lamp mounting plate and center over hole. Secure using four
self-tapping sheet metal screws provided. Repeat steps 1-4 for the second lamp.
5. Find a suitable location to mount the power supply making sure supply cord to ballast will reach 120 or
240 volt power supply. Mount the power supply using four self-tapping sheet metal screws provided.
6. Taking care not to touch the glass, hold the lamp by the end cap and insert fully into the base plate.
7. Insert the moisture resistant lamp socket over the plastic lamp end fitting over the mounting studs,
secure using the two thumb nuts. (Photo B)
8. Route cord back to the moisture resistant lamp socket and reconnect mid-cord connector. Be sure to line up
arrows on the connector. (Photo A) Repeat steps 6-8 for the second lamp.
9. Adhere included UV Warning Label next to the access point in ductwork for servicing the lamps.
