UVHEALTH BIO2000 Installation Manual
6.0 MAINTENANCE
Maintenance and service should only be completed by a
qualified technician.
Disconnect power to the unit before commencing
inspection and cleaning.
Never expose eyes or skin to UV-C light from any
source. Looking directly at the UV-C light may
cause permanent eye damage or blindness. Never
operate the UVHealth BIO2000 Air Purifying
System out of the plenum. Avoid touching the glass
portion of the lamp with your hands.
Note:
Wear disposable, non-absorbent protective
gloves prior to inspection procedure in case of accidental
breakage of glass.
•
We recommend inspecting and cleaning the lamp at
least every 6 months. Frequency depends upon the
environment. Such as: the type of air filter, duration
of use and replacement cycle.
•
To maintain maximum output intensity, replace
the lamp annually. The lamp should operate
continuously for maximum lamp life and light
effectiveness.
•
Do not attempt to clean the catalytic honeycomb
core with cleaning solutions. The catalyst is radiated
with short wave ultraviolet light during period of
non-air flow and is self-cleaning. If there is build up
blocking the catalytic cells, sit the unit on end, on a
flat surface, with electrical enclosure facing up. Use
low-pressure, compressed air to blow the surface of
the catalytic cells free of blockage.
6.1 CLEANING THE LAMP
Disconnect power to the unit before starting
replacement procedure.
Note:
Wear disposable, non-absorbent protective
gloves prior to replacement procedure in case of
accidental breakage of glass.
1. Unplug the quick disconnect power cord from the unit.
2. Remove two Phillips head screws on the left and right
hand side of the front electrical cover and remove the
cover.
3. Remove four mounting screws.
4. Remove the UVHealth BIO2000 body by sliding out of
the duct mounting plate.
5. Use a cotton cloth with isopropyl alcohol and gently
clean the surface of the lamp.
6. Replace the UVHealth BIO2000 back into the duct
mounting plate and tighten the mounting screws.
7. Replace the front electrical cover and plug the quick
connect power cord back into the unit mounting
screws.
6.2 REPLACING THE LAMP
• It is recommended the lamp is replaced after 12 months
of continuous service. To maintain maximum output
intensity, the lamp should be replaced annually.
• Replace only with a genuine replacement lamp. This
is a custom manufacture lamp designed only for the
UVHealth BIO2000 high output thermal compensating
electronic ballast.
• Follow the above steps and after step 4 loosen the
brass knurl nut on the clamp at the rear of the lamp.
Unplug the lamp electrical connector from the end
of the lamp shown in Figure 6 and gently slide the
lamp out the front of the UVHealth BIO2000 housing.
Reinstall by reversing the above steps.
Note:
If blue light leaks through any portion of plenum
and/or around mounting plate, unplug power supply
cord immediately and seal affected areas.
UV lamps contain a small amount of mercury,
like a typical fluorescent lamp. Check with your
local waste management authority for local
disposal or recycling requirements.
Never touch broken lamp or internal contents of
lamp. The lamp contains mercury.
Note:
In case of accidental exposure to internal
contents of lamp, wash hands and any other affected
skin area with mild detergent. Remove affected clothing
immediately. If skin surface is pierced, seek medical
attention immediately.
6.3 HONEYCOMB AND CARBON REPLACEMENT
If there is a need to replace the honeycomb or carbon
media, the following procedure should be followed.

before removing the unit.
Note:
Wear disposable non-absorbent protective gloves
prior to replacement procedure in case of accidental
breakage of glass.
1. Unplug the quick disconnect power cord from the unit.
Look through the round sight glass hole and verify the
UV lamp is off before removing the unit. There should
be no blue glow along the length of the unit.
