SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Installation and servicing of air-conditioning equipment can
be hazardous due to system pressure and electrical compo-
nents. Only trained and qualified service personnel should
install, repair, or service air-conditioning equipment.
Untrained personnel can perform basic maintenance func-
tions such as changing lamps. All other operations should be
performed by trained service personnel. When working on air-
conditioning equipment, observe precautions in the literature,
tags and labels attached to the unit or accessory, and other safe-
ty precautions that may apply. Follow all safety codes. Wear
safety glasses and work gloves.
GENERAL
The Totaline P103-R1700G and P103-R4000G residential
ultraviolet air purifiers are designed to kill bacteria, viruses,
odor-causing mold and fungus that may be transmitted
through the air ducts of the HVAC equipment. The purifiers
are installed in the return (preferred) or supply air plenum of the
HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) equipment.
The ultraviolet (UV) band light inhibits and kills mold, fun-
gus, bacteria, viruses and microbial growth on the air flowing
through the 6-in. square aluminum tube.
Location —
The preferred installation location for the
purifier is in the return duct as the air will be treated before
the filter and HVAC coil. If it is not possible to install in the
return duct, it may be installed in the supply duct. The
painted steel power supply control panel section of the puri-
fier is installed on the outside of the duct.
Make sure site can be supplied with the necessary power
requirements. The P103-R4000G UV air purifier has a power
consumption of 35 watts, the P103-R1700G UV air purifier
26 watts, and both require a 110/220 v, 50-60 Hz power source.
Ensure that there is adequate clearance for service. If a humidi-
fier is present, the air purifier should be installed in the
airstream before the humidifier and the humidifier must be pro-
tected from UV rays.
The operating temperature range is 40 to 150 F. Operating
the P103-R4000G and the P103-R1700G UV air purifiers out-
side this range will result in decreased performance.
NOTE: The P103-R4000G and P103-R1700G UV air purifi-
ers are NOT waterproof. If installing outdoors, the purifiers
must be installed in a watertight enclosure.

PREPARATION
1. Turn off all power to HVAC equipment.
2. Remove the P103-R4000G UV air purifier from its
packaging.
3. Remove the lamp from the packaging material. The
lamp is fragile, use extreme care. Do not touch the
glass on the lamp. Use the enclosed gloves when han-
dling the lamp. Handle lamp from the ceramic ends.
Before installing the P103-R1700G, P103-R4000G Ultra-
violet (UV) Air Purifier or performing maintenance or
service on the air purifier, turn off main power switch to
unit. Electrical shock can cause injury or death. There
may be more than one disconnect switch.
Never expose eyes or skin to ultraviolet light from any
source. Air purifier must be off before performing mainte-
nance or service. Personal injury may result.
Use only specified replacement lamps with this accessory.
Use of an incorrect lamp can result in damage to accessory
or lamp.
Do not touch lamp glass without gloves. Reduced perfor-
mance of lamp may result. Clean lamp after handling.
Lamp contains a small quantity of mercury. If a lamp
breaks, clean and dispose of with care.
IMPORTANT: The P103-R4000G UV air purifier is
energized from a pressure differential caused by airflow
through the duct. On variable speed fan applications, air-
flow at LOW setting may not be sufficient to energize the
air purifier. Ensure that there is a sufficient differential to
activate the switch. The differential will decrease as the
air filter loads.
The P103-R4000G control panel must
be installed in a vertical upright position for the air
sensor to function properly. If the P103-R4000G
control panel is to be installed in a horizontal posi-
tion, or the differential is not sufficient, the air sen-
sor must be bypassed and the P103-R4000G air
purifier is to be wired into the fan circuit.
