Introduction and Applications:
This Ultravation Photronic Air Handler Base Air Cleaner is
a complete whole house air cleaning system. This high
efficiency air filtration unit is designed to remove dirt, dust,
pollen, microscopic particles, reduce unpleasant odors,
VOC gases and the microbial population from the air that
circulates through it. By adding this device to your HVAC
system, you are helping to create a cleaner indoor living
environment for your whole household.
The system works in 1-3 steps.
STEP 1: Trapping particles in the pleats of the MERV 11
media filter. With an extra large surface area, the filter
allows for maximum dirt holding capacity and a long, useful
filter life with minimum air flow restriction.
STEP 2: VOC’s and gases such as the fumes from new
carpets, paints, nail polish, cigar and cigarette smoke are
drastically reduced photo chemically via a patented
process known as photo catalytic conversion or photo
catalytic oxidation.
STEP 3: Germicidal UVC light is applied to the Air and
problematic HVAC components to drastically reduce
unwanted Virus, Bacteria and Mold.
This air cleaner is to be installed in a forced air heating,
cooling and ventilation system. It should be installed so
that all the system’s air is circulated through the filter first
and VOC Section second. The air cleaner will only filter the
air that is circulated through it. For maximum filtration
effect, set your blower to operate continuously.
Safety Precautions:
It is recommended that this unit be installed and
maintained by a trained technician:
WARNING: UV Hazard. Always protect eyes from
ultraviolet light. NEVER look at UV lamps in
operation. Unplug or disconnect power before re-
lamping or servicing.
WARNING: Severe eye damage or temporary
blinding may occur.
WARNING: DO NOT operate outside of Air Handler.
Mount lamp base to unit first.
WARNING: No openings in duct are allowed which
would give direct line-of-sight to the UV light.
In the event of accidental breakage or replacement of
the ultraviolet lamp, please ensure that the lamp is
disposed of in accordance with local and state
environmental laws regarding fluorescent lamps
containing mercury.
Notice:
All wiring inside of the duct or air handling system in
direct line of site of the UV lamp must be shielded with
aluminum foil tape or equivalent non-combustible
material. When installing this unit, select a mounting
location that prevents ultraviolet light exposure to
plastic flexible duct liner or other plastic components
with unknown resistance to ultraviolet light. Ultraviolet
light may cause color shift or structural degradation of
plastic HVAC components
