ROOFTOP INSTALLATION DIRECTIONS
1. Provide a bracket to hold the GPS-RN unit such that air flows across the needles simultaneously. See the
example of two units below.
2. The preferred mounting location is "B". The second preferred location is "C" and the third
preferred location is "A". Please note mounting in "A" the filter will stop the ions.

UNIT WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Mount the GPS-RN unit to a bracket, provided by others.
2. The GPS-UP12-RN power supply can accecpt 24VAC to 240VAC input.
3. Secure the power supply in the RTU/AHU control panel or junction box, provided by others.
4. Plenum rated DC power cables will be provided by Global Plasma Solutions with each system.
5. The power supply will be provided with a 3' long cable. The wires colors are:
Green/Yellow = Ground BROWN = AC INPUT BLUE = AC INPUT
6. Connect the 2.5mm DC power plug into the first GPS-RN unit as shown.
7. If the system contains more than one GPS-RN unit, 3' DC power cables will be provided with 2.5mm
plugs on both ends. Simply plug the cable into the jacks as shown in the above samples.
8. All DC power jacks on the GPS-RN units are wired in parallel internally so there are no in/out requirements.

2. Each GPS-RN can be wired for individual BAS control or wired in series
as shown in the above example so if one unit fails, an alarm is initiated.
NOTE: Dry contact rated for low voltage AC and DC only! Maximum of 1 AMP.

1. Provide 12VDC power to either power jack. The center pin requires the 12V+ and the outer pin requires
the negative connection.
2. Up to two units may be powered in series using 2.5mm DC power cables provided by GPS.
1. Confirm 12VDC is being supplied to the power jack. The center pin requires the 12V+ and the outer pin
requires the negative connection.
2. Confirm only up to two units are being powered in series using 2.5mm DC power cables provided by GPS.
6. Please note that the ion output LED and BAS dry contacts are linked directly to the output side of the ion
circuit. If the ion output LED is on and/or the BAS dry contact is closed, there will be voltage output to the ion
needles.
7. If all components are functioning properly, but the ion count at the supply diffuser is less than
1,000 ions/cm, use a cotton ball with rubbing alcohol and wipe off the ion needles. Needle oxidation may
have occurred, resulting in ion output reduction.
1. NEVER TOUCH ION NEEDLES WHILE OPERATING. SHOCK MAY OCCUR.
2. GPS-RN SHOULD NEVER BE CONNECTED WITH AN EXTENSION CORD.
3. DO NOT CONNECT POWER BEFORE INSTALLATION IS COMPLETE. ALWAYS DISCONNECT POWER TO THE
UNIT BEFORE HANLDING ANY OF THE UNIT COMPONENTS OR SERVICING.
4. THIS PRODUCT SHALL NOT BE INSTALLED BEHIND A SUSPENDED FLOOR/CEILING, OR A STRUCTURAL WALL,
CEILING OR FLOOR.
5. THIS PRODUCT IS SUITABLE FOR MOUNTING INTO A DUCT OF METALLIC CONSTRUCTION ONLY.
6. PRODUCT SHOULD BE MOUNTED SUCH THAT THE POWER SUPPLIES CAN BE POWERED WITHOUT
THE USE OF AN EXTENSION CORD. FOLLOW ALL LOCAL AND NATIONAL ELECTRIC CODES WHEN WIRING.

3. Confirm the On/Off Switch is in the "On" position and illuminated.
4. If On/Off switch is "On" and illuminated, 12VDC jack has power and polarity is correct, but the ion LED light
is off, the unit must be returned to the factory and a replacement provided.
5. If the ion output LED is on, the BAS dry contacts will be closed. If the ion output LED is off, the BAS dry

4. Once 12VDC power is applied, turn the On/Off switch to the "On" position. The On/Off switch will now
illuminate.
5. Once the On/Off switch is turned to the "On" position, upon no faults, the ion output LED will illuminate.
6. When the ion output LED is illuminated, the BAS dry contact will closed.
