ADVISORIES
Purpose
The Energenics UV-MAX ECO system has been designed to
offer direct disinfection exposure to surface areas. The
system design allows for microbial disinfection control.
The Energenics UV-MAX ECO system was developed as a
cleaning device utilizing Ultraviolet Light (UV) for direct
exposure disinfection. The system can disinfect 360 degrees
from the system center.
Contents
This manual will serve as your reference guide for
installation, operation, and service of your UV-MAX ECO.
Reference to all parts, warranty,and support are included.
This manual covers the system/equipment/products listed
below:
•Energenics Part #: UV-MAX ECO
Safety Observation:
It is required for the person(s) responsible for the installation of this equipment, operators of this equipment, and operation
personnel managers to review and understand this manual.
USE OF LISTED SYSTEM / EQUIPMENT MUST COMPLY WITH INSTRUCTIONS AND SAFETY REQUIREMENTS.

Safety
1. You should never look directly at a UV lamp in operation without wearing
approved safety glasses. Safety glasses should be made of any material
other than Quartz or Teflon.
2. The space should be vacant and closed prior to device operation
3. Never command the system on when the treatment space is occupied
SAFE OPERATION
Disposal of Mercury Added Lamps
Germicidal ultraviolet lamps, like standard fluorescent lamps
contain small amounts of mercury. Mercury added lamps
should not be placed in the trash. Dispose of properly. For
further information regarding the disposal and recycling
of lamps containing mercury, along with Federal and State
requirements visit LampRecycle.org.
Safety Guidelines
Exposure to UV-C light is dangerous. The adverse health
effects that may occur are erythema (sunburn) and
photokeratitis (a feeling of sand in the eyes). These effects
are considered transient. UV-C may also be carcinogenic but
since it has very limited penetrating ability, it is unlikely to
cause damage to anything beyond the outer layer of skin or
other exposed surfaces. Unfortunately, there are no
immediate warning symptoms to indicate overexposure to
UV radiation and adverse effects typically appear hours after
exposure has occurred.
The Energenics UV-ECO is designed for zero user exposure
to UV-C; however, we will review safety factors regarding
UV-C for better knowledge and understanding.
Protective Clothing and Eyewear
It is not recommended that any personnel be subject to
direct UV-C exposure. Personnel that may be exposed to
harmful amounts and wavelengths of UV must take adequate
steps to shield themselves and in some cases limit the
duration of exposure.
If there is any potential for the eyes and face to be exposed
to UV radiation, a polycarbonate face shield stamped with
the ANSI Z87.1-1989 UV certification must be worn to protect
the eyes and face. Ordinary prescription eyeglasses may not
block UV radiation. UV certified goggles and safety glasses
will protect the eyes, but workers may suffer facial burns in
the areas not covered by the goggles or glasses.
OSHA Guidelines for Ultraviolet Exposure
There is no Occupational Safety and Health Administration
(OSHA) standard regarding exposure to ultraviolet light, but
the OSHA general duty clause states the employer must
provide a workplace free of recognized hazards that may
cause death or serious physical harm.

The Energenics UV-MAX ECO is designed for maximum disinfection
through the shortest exposure time. More UV-C wattage allows shorter
exposure times to surfaces. Exposure times vary based on furthest
distance from the UV-C source. The system design provides the optimum
in:
•UV dosage output to footprint served
•Rugged design build
•Ease of use controls
•User safety protection
•INDUSTRIAL STRENGTH FRAME AND STRUCTURE
•CORROSION PROOF CONSTRUCTION
•6” INDUSTRIAL CASTERS
•HIGH OUTPUT PRE-HEAT LAMPS FOR LONG RUN TIME LENGTH
•PIR SENSOR DETECTION SAFETY SHUTOFF
•INDIVIDUAL LAMP FAILURE INDICATOR LED’S
•EMERGENCY STOP BUTTON
•BUILT TO IP56 WATER AND DUST STANDARDS

The Energenics UV-MAX ECO system is designed for repeat performance with consistent results. Based on system
designs, minimal maintenance is required. Adherence to the following regular service of your system should provide years
of disinfection.
Each Duty Cycle
1. Inspect the system interior, exterior, and lamps for clean conditions
2. Clean as needed
Monthly
1. Inspect the system interior, exterior, and lamps for clean conditions
2. Clean as needed
3. It is recommended to test system performance with Dosimeter Cards or ATP Meter.
Bi-Annual
1. Inspect the system interior and exterior lamp for clean conditions
2. Clean as needed
3. It is recommended to test system performance with Dosimeter Cards or ATP Meter.
“Service Machine” Message
1. Every 8 run-hours it is recommended that lamps be wiped clean with isopropyl or rubbing alcohol. This will
remove any debris that may have accumulated on the lamp.
Note: The above steps are listed as the basic level of care, should the system be utilized in a heavy work environment, further care may
be required.
SYSTEM CARE

10
Q: What should I do if the unit will not turn on?
A: Verify there is power to the system by observing that all time sequence buttons are illuminated.
A: Verify the Emergency Stop is not engaged
Q: Why does the unit turn off when I enter the room?
A: Safety features turn off lamps based on detection by the PIR sensor.
Q: My system will turn on, but the lamps will not come on.
A: Verify the start cycle button is pressed
A: Inspect the lamp for age or physical failure
A: Contact Energenics Support for further information
Q: My system is running fine, how do I verify the lamp output is correct?
A: Use Dosimeter Cards or trained ATP meter specialist.
Q: What is a PIR (Passive Infrared) Sensor?
A: PIR stands for Passive Infrared. These sensors are used extensively in occupancy sensors for lighting control and security products.
The PIR sensor detects human heat and movement. In the case of the UV-MAX ECO,when it detects both human heat and movement
it will turn off the UVC Unit.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

11
The below statements are listed as troubleshooting guidelines. Further information is available through Energenics support.
Q: Is UV-C disinfection strictly line of sight?
A: Yes, it needs to shine on the surface to disinfect. It will not go around objects or disinfect shadowed areas.
Q: Does UV-C light reflect off surfaces?
A: Yes, it reflects off many surfaces, but loses intensity if the surface is not highly polished like the Stainless-Steel center installed on our
unit.
Q: Is the UV-C light I can see under the door dangerous?
A: Zero exposure to people is imperative so block it or protect your eyes and skin (please note: 254nm UV-C wavelength is invisible, what
is seen is visible light)
Q: Does UV-C light go through glass or windows?
A: Standard window glass or poly carbonate provides sufficient protection from UVC rays.
Q: Can I use an ATP Meter with the UV-MAX ECO?
A: Yes. When used by properly trained personnel, it can be used to measure how clean a surface is.
Q: Can I use a response card with the UV-MAX ECO?
A: Yes, it can be used to indicate the correct dose has been applied to a surface
