face shield/glasses (per ANSI Z87.1) and cover all
exposed skin.
•
Do not touch UVC Emitter

germicidal lamp without
gloves. Damage to Emitter may result. Oil from
fingerprints will permanently etch glass of Emitter and
weaken structure. If necessary, clean Emitter using a
Steril-Aire cleaning kit, isopropyl alcohol and a lint-free
wipe may be substituted.
•
UVC Emitters are fragile. To prevent accidental
breakage handle the UVC Emitter with care.
•
Voltages outside of the range designed for the unit
will void the warranty and do permanent damage to
the entire unit.
•
Emitter contains a small quantity of mercury.
If an Emitter breaks, clean and dispose of with the
same care as a fluorescent lamp.
•
UVC energy may cause damage to non-metallic
components. Such components shall be protected
with UV resistant material such as aluminum foil,
aluminum duct tape, metallic shields, etc.
•
The qualified installer or agency must use factory
kits and accessories when installing this product.
For your safety ensure that the Kit is electrically
connected to a proper power source, on/off switch,
interlock switch (or control panel) and fuse.
Upon completing the installation, the UVC Emitters
should be operated continuously, 24/7, to preclude
the development of mold and bacteria.
Dispose of used Emitters in accordance with local
regulations regarding the disposal of fluorescent
lamps.
