WARNING: never expose eyes or skin to UVC light from any source. Looking directly at the UVC light may cause permanent eye damage or blindness.
Never operate the UV-Aire™ AirPurifying System out of the plenum. Avoid touching the glass portion of the lamp with your hands.
14. Identify an area of the access panel or other area of the equipment or duct through which the lamp may
be seen. Verify that the surface is free of dirt, oil, and other contaminants, peel of the label backing and apply
the Safety label to the surface such that the warning information is clearly visible (see Figure 8).
15. Drill a 3/8” hole through the center of the Safety Label, where indicated by the dashed circle (see figure 7).
16. Snap the clear plastic Safety Viewport into the hole (see Figure 8). The lamp may be safely viewed
through the viewport while it is lit.
17. Verify that all electrical connections are tight and that the lamp and bracket is secure.
18. Replace all access panels and other items that may have been removed during the installation, such as
electrical box covers, etc.
19. Verify that the Safety Viewport is securely fastened in the hole drilled through the Safety Label.
WARNING: BEFORE RESTORING POWER TO THE HVAC SYSTEM OR THE TRANSFORMER POWER SOURCE, VERIFY
THAT NO OPENINGS EXIST THROUGH WHICH UVC RAYS FROM THE LAMP MAY ESCAPE. VERIFY THAT ALL
ACCESS PANELS AND DUCTWORK ETC. HAVE BEEN REPLACED AND SEALED IF NECESSARY, AND THAT THE
SAFETY VIEW PORT IS SECURELY FASTENED IN PLACE.
20. Restore power to the HVAC system and the transformer power source. Look through the Safety Viewport
to verify that the lamp is lit.
BRACKET MOUNT INSTALLATION THROUGH A-COIL DELTA PLATE OR PLENUM
If the lamp is to be mounted externally on the plenum or an air duct, or if the
lamp is to be mounted through a delta plate (covers the end of A-coil in certain air
handler designs), follow these steps for installation:
1. Separate the lamp mounting portion of the Lamp Bracket from the remainder
of the lamp bracket (see Figure 4), by bending back and forth or cut with snips or
hacksaw.
2. Attach the shield to the separated bracket, on the side opposite from the
lamp mounting studs (see Figure 5), if it is to be used. Any of the four attachment
positions may be used.
3. Insert the lamp through the oval hole in the bracket and shield base, and attach
to the mounting studs using the supplied #8-32 locking nuts (see Figure 5). Do not
use the supplied #8-32 wingnuts, unless the lamp is to be installed inside an air
handler or other equipment or structure requiring the use of a tool to access.
4. Mark the location for the lamp, and drill or cut a 2” round hole (may be an oval hole 2” x 1”
if the shield is not used) in the mounting surface, using care to avoid damage to equipment or
concealed wiring. If the lamp is to be mounted on duct board, fabricate a mounting surface by cutting a 6” x
6” square of suitable sheet metal. Cut the hole for the lamp in the sheet metal and the duct board, and tape
the sheet metal securely to the duct board using mastic-backed metal tape.
5. Insert the lamp through the hole, orient the lamp such that it presents the least obstruction to airflow
or that the shield is in proper position, and secure the bracket to the mounting surface using three of the
supplied sheet-metal screws, or other appropriate fasteners.
6. If mounting through the exterior of a plenum or air duct, use metal duct sealing tape (not included) to tape
around the edges of the mounting bracket, to prevent UVC rays from escaping and
prevent duct leakage.
7. Position the cable clamp installed on the Lamp Cable such that the clamp
hole is aligned with the fourth hole in the bracket, and install the fourth screw or
fastener through the clamp and bracket, into the mounting surface (see Figure 6).
Note: This step is important to preclude the inadvertent removal of the lamp from
the bracket before disconnecting the lamp cable from the lamp.
