Ultraviolet (UV) Germicidal
Irradiation Lights
The United States Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) believes that
molds and bacteria inside buildings have
the potential to cause health problems in
sensitive individuals (Note 1). If specified,
Trane provides ultraviolet lights (UV-C) as
a factory-engineered and installed option
in select commercial air handling
products for the purpose of reducing
microbiological growth (mold and
bacteria) within the equipment. When
factory provided, polymer materials that
are susceptible to deterioration by the
UV-C light will be substituted or shielded
from direct exposure to the light. In
addition, UV-C radiation can damage
human tissue, namely eyes and skin. To
reduce the potential for inadvertent
exposure to the lights by operating and
maintenance personnel, electrical
interlocks that automatically disconnect
power to the lights are provided at all unit
entry points to equipment where lights
are located

WARNING
Equipment Damage From
Ultraviolet (UV) Lights!
Trane does not recommend field
installation of ultraviolet lights in
its air handling equipment for the
intended purpose of improving
indoor air quality. High intensity
C-band ultraviolet light is known
to severely damage polymer
(plastic) materials and poses a
personal safety risk to anyone
exposed to the light without
proper personal protective
equipment (can cause damage to
eyes and skin). Polymer materials
commonly found in HVAC
equipment that may be
susceptible include insulation on
electrical wiring, fan belts,
thermal insulation, various
fasteners and bushings.
Degradation of these materials
can result in serious damage to
the equipment. Trane accepts no
responsibility for the performance
or operation of our air handling
equipment in which ultraviolet
devices were installed outside of
the Trane factory.
