Modern Forms Ultra User manual

Directions for Use and Operations
The ULTRA offers a patent-pending system, incorporating a Module of LEDs emitting ultraviolet-C (UV-C)
invisible light and a powerful fan, which can reduce the concentration of active pathogens, including the
SARS-CoV-2 virus, in the air of the room where the system is operating.1 The module also includes indicator
LEDs emitting violet-color visible light to indicate that the UV-C Module is on.
To enable the UV-C technology in ULTRA to substantially reduce the concentration of active pathogens in
the breathable air zones of the room where it is operating, keep the UV-C Module on for at least 30 minutes
in a room of 8’x8’x10’ and longer for a larger room.1For larger spaces, it is recommended to install multiple
ULTRA fans. Once installed and powered on, the fan circulates air through the upper-room, the air passes
above the UV-C Module, which acts to reduce the active pathogens. 1, 2
The ULTRA can be operated only using the remote control supplied with the fan or the free downloadable
Modern Forms app. The UV-C Module can be turned on and off from the remote. The UV-C Module cannot
be operated independently of the ceiling fan, but the ceiling fan can be operated independently of the UV-C
Module. The rotation of the fan can be increased or decreased by 6 speed levels. The direction of rotation of
the fan can also be reversed. The fan also has a Breeze Mode function which fluctuates the fan speeds.
The ULTRA is Damp Location Rated and can be operated indoors or in covered outdoor locations that have
no direct exposure to water, rain, or snow.
UV-C Module Indicator Lights
The ULTRA comes with violet-color indicator LEDs so the user knows when the UV-C Module is operating.
The indicator LEDs cannot be turned off separately from the UV-C Module.
Performance
The UV-C Module in ULTRA operates at a UV-C range (peak wavelength of 275 nanometers3) to reduce active
pathogens in the air in the room. Research shows that UV-C radiation, 100-280 nanometer (nm), can damage
microorganisms’ deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid, leading to the inactivation of bacteria or
virus. 4

ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Exposure to UV radiation
can cause serious personal injuries, including damage
to eyes and skin. Avoid direct exposure to the UV light.

Ultra
Third-party lab tests conducted on the the UV-C technology used in ULTRA have shown a 99.99% reduction
of collectable active pathogen in the air and that the active SARS-CoV-2 virus, specifically, was not
detectable in the breathable air after 30 minutes of operation in an 8’x8’x10’ test room.1 For larger spaces,
it is recommended to install multiple ULTRA fans. Whole room pathogen concentrations will vary between
installation locations, and the number of ULTRA fans installed.
UV-C Module Maintenance
The ULTRA ceiling fan does not need frequent maintenance. A dry or lightly dampened cloth will be suitable
for most cleaning needs. Make sure you follow all safety rules contained in the instruction manual when
cleaning. DO NOT operate the ULTRA, including the UV-C Module, while performing any maintenance, repair
or replacement servicing the unit.
The UV-C Module (UVF7IN-120V-R1-MOD) has a 6,500-hour lifespan. The fan is equipped with a timer that
automatically tracks how much time the UV-C Module has been used. When there are approximately 80
hours remaining in the module’s life, the UV-C Module will flash when the ULTRA is turned on indicating that
you should replace the UV-C Module to ensure efficacy. Track and monitor use of the UV-C Module, avoid
unintended extended operation, to preserve the lifespan of the UV-C Module. See replacement module
instructions at modernforms.com for more information.
Troubleshooting
Please read the back of the instruction manual, visit modernforms.com, or contact our Fan Support team at:

WARNING: Ultraviolet (UV) Radiation Hazard. The lamp in this The unit produces UV light. Skin or eye
damage may result from direct exposure to UV light. Avoid direct exposure to UV light. Always turn off and
disconnect power before servicing the unit. See Instructions for UV Safety Rules in the instruction manual.
WARNING: This product should be installed by a licensed electrician. This product should be mounted
to an outlet box UL-listed marked “Acceptable for fan support” of 15.9 kg (35 lbs) or less and should use
mounting screws provided with the outlet box and/or support directly from building structure. Most outlet
boxes commonly used for the support of luminaires are not acceptable for fan support. Consult a licensed
electrician.
For further safety instructions, please refer to page 5 of the fan’s instruction manual (“UV Safety Rules”).
Disclaimer: While there may be information here or on our website relating to the effectiveness of the
UV-C technology incorporated in the ULTRA in reducing SARS-CoV-2 and other pathogens in the air, Modern
Forms makes no claims that its products can cure, treat or prevent any conditions, including COVID-19 or
other conditions that may be caused by airborne pathogens. Always consult your healthcare provider with
any health-related questions.
Whole room pathogen concentrations will vary between installation locations, and the number of ULTRA
fans installed, and it is not possible to predict the extent of reductions that will be achieved by the ULTRA in
whole room air in any particular room or environment. The ULTRA is not a substitute for good building air
exchange practices or manual cleaning and disinfection practices.
