ABOUT AIR KNIGHT IPG
ABOUT AIR KNIGHT IPG
The Air Knight IPG in-duct air purification system is a new generation HVAC
air system designed to reduce odors, smoke, germs, and a broad spectrum of
indoor air contaminants.
The Air Knight IPG in-duct air purification system is easily mounted into
HVAC system air ducts where many air quality problems can start. Using
a unique technology, the Air Knight IPG system uses UV light energy to
illuminate a quint-metallic core to produce ionic oxidizers that seek out
and attack indoor pollutants. These ionic “air scrubbers” clean the air AND
surfaces wherever the air goes.
SPECIFICATIONS
The device must be installed in compliance with all national and local
electrical and mechanical codes. Failure to do so will void the warranty.
UV Light in operation. Disconnect unit from power supply before

INSTALLATION (Tools & Requirements)
RECOMMENDED INSTALLATION TOOLS
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
1. Unit should be installed in the supply side air stream of the HVAC system.
2. An approximate 4” (8.89 cm) opening will need to be cut into the
existing duct work to install the unit properly.
Hardwiring Requirements
Connect black and white wires to a dedicated 40Va transformer.
Airflow Orientation
Be sure to orient the unit for proper airflow through
the IPG core in either horizontal or vertical air flow
systems. Air should be able to freely flow through the
IPG core as shown.
It is recommended that the Fan Setting on your
thermostat be set to ON to ensure continuous air
flow through the IPG core.
REMOVE AIRFLOW TAG BEFORE INSTALLATION
Electrical wiring of the unit to the HVAC system should be done by a
licensed HVAC installer or electrical contractor.
• 4” Hole Saw (metal specific recommended)
• Drill/Power Driver
• Phillips Screwdriver
• 3/8” Drill Bit (for fiberglass ductwork)
• 1/4” Nut Driver Bit
YOU MAY ALSO NEED:
