PERATION
NOTE: ENSURE THAT EMITTER IS INSTALLED BEFORE
POWER IS APPLIED. INSTALLING EMITTER AFTER
POWER HAS BEEN APPLIED MAY
TRIGGER THE “END
-
OF-LAMP-
LIFE CIRCUIT” AND
THE EMITTER MAY FAIL
TO LIGHT. IF THIS HAPPENS, SHUT OFF POWER FOR 10
SECONDS AND THEN TURN POWER BACK ON. EMITTER
WILL THEN LIGHT.
1.
Consult all applicable codes before installing.
Check fixture label(s) for the correct power
requirements and supply the correct voltage
from a suitable, protected (fused), and grounded
power source.
2.
Air Handler should have signs (provided in
English and Spanish) in appropriate languages
alerting maintenance personnel to the possible
hazard of looking at or exposing skin to UVC
energy. Service accesses may be equipped with
a glass or Lexan
®
window to view Emitters;
viewports are available as an accessory. UVC
energy does not penetrate common glass or
Lexan
®
.
3. If applicable, remove outer cover of air handler.
4.
UVC energy may damage some plastics. Wrap
suspect items with aluminum tape; use metallic
conduit or use other appropriate shielding where
these items may be in "line of sight" of the UVC
energy.
5.
The Emitter shall be installed downstream from
the cooling coil and above the drain pan. To
achieve equal distribution of UVC intensity on
the face of the coil, the Emitters shall be
positioned from the face of the coil at a distance
equal to half the vertical height that the light is
covering.
6. The Emitter shall also:
o
Be at least 1” away from any heating coil.
o
Not make contact with the air handler
blower.
7. If applicable, replace the outer cover of air
handler.
8. Remove cover to ESE Fixture.
9. Using the fixture base as a template scribe and
then create an insertion hole,
2” diameter where
you want the emitter to be located.
CAUTION: Do not drill into coil, refrigerant lines
or other mechanical equipment.
10. Install support bracket (item 4) using the 4 nuts
4-40 provided (item 5). Align the face of the
support bracket so that it faces the coiling coil on
final installation. The bracket can be rotated 360
degrees at 90 degrees intervals.
11.
Drill suitable holes for each fastener (unless
using self-tapping screws). Using the proper #10
fastener for your application, install fixture(s) and
wire in accordance with the applicable code.
12.
Install UVC Emitter. Secure with spring clip.
Ensure that there is an O-ring on the emitter.
Failure to install O-ring can possibly damage the
emitter base.
13.
Complete all power connections and replace
cover to the fixture
14.
Reconnect power to the air conditioner and
toggle the installed switch
to the “On” position.
The Emitter should emit a bright blue hue,
indicating that it is properly powered.
15.
Attach the Caution Label and Lamp Change
Date Label to air handler access panel so they
are clearly visible.
16.
Emitters need to be periodically replaced to
maintain design output. Emitters should be
replaced after 9,000 hours of use.
