being switched on accidentally. When the service disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely
fasten a prominent warning device, such as a tag. When the device is open, there is a risk of radiation
from the UV-C light. This can lead to painful corneal inflammation (conjunctivitis)
•When servicing or replacement of a component make sure to reinstall or remount all safety
requirements as previously installed.

Description
MAC500s produces UV-C light under controlled conditions. Different UV-C wavelengths have
different properties.The MAC500s uses two wavelengths. One is a powerful sterilizer when it is
in direct contact with pathogens and the other wavelength uses the available oxygen (O2) to
naturally produce a low level of ozone (O3).The low level of ozone recreates the fresh air from
outside in nature inside your home or office.The ozone dynamically attacks dangerous airborne
pathogens in the air you breathe and can deactivate airborne virus.
This method is called photolytic oxidation and JIMCO A/S has won EU environmental Award for
Developing a Cleaner Technology.
The purpose with the MAC500s is to purify the air you breathe.

Intended use
The MAC500s is intended to be used 24 hours a day.The recommended room size is 60 m3 (24 m2
with a ceiling height of 2,5 m).The unit should not be operated while situated on the floor but should
be placed as high as possible for maximum efficiency.
The unit must not be operated without cover.
When more units are placed in a room they must be placed as far from each other as possible to get
an even distribution of the area they cover.
Function
Photolytic oxidation makes a cold incineration with airborne pathogens and organic particles such as
fungal spores, virus, bacteria, yeast, ethylene gasses, nicotine etc.The process is environmentally
friendly and the cold incineration will reduce the airborne pathogens and organic particles significantly.
The MAC500s reduce ethylen gasses, bacteria and fungal spores, which will extend the shelf life of
food, fruit and vegetables.
The MAC500s will effectively reduce odor from rooms deposited in walls, carpets, textiles, furnitures
etc.
