RADIATION AVOID DIRECT EYE AND SKIN EXPOSURE
WARNING: This product can expose you to chemicals including mercury,
which is known to the State of California to cause cancer. For more
information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.
All Nemesis™ units are built and registered under our EPA™
registered facility #99690 as a Risk Group 3 UV-C product under 40
CFR 156
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical equipment, basic safety precautions should always be
followed including the following:
READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
a) This equipment is designed for use with germicidal UV radiation sources and must be
installed in compliance with competent technical directions to prevent risk of personal injury
from UV radiation.
b) UV and optical radiation can be reflected by surrounding surfaces such as ceilings and walls.
Since the reflective properties of surfaces can vary widely, it should be considered as part of site
planning. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for selecting appropriate ceiling and wall
finishes.
c) IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE INSTALLER TO OPERATOR THAT PERSONS WILL NOT BE
EXPOSED TO EXCESSIVE UV OR OPTICAL RADIATION DURING EQUIPMENT OPERATION.
THIS WILL REQUIRE THE OPERATOR TO CONDUCT AN ASSESSMENT OF THE AREA PRIOR TO
USE

Nemesis™ UV-C Typhon™ User Manual_V1.1

d) Maintenance and servicing of this UV generating equipment shall be performed by
authorized personnel. Service personnel must wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment
(PPE) if the equipment will be in operation during the maintenance or servicing work.
Contact Nemesis™ UV-C for PPE recommendations and guidance.
g) When replacing lamps, replace them only with the lamps for which the equipment is
marked and intended.
h) The use of accessory equipment not recommended by the manufacturer may cause an
unsafe condition.
i) Do not use this equipment for other than intended use.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Never allow humans, animals or plants to have direct exposure of UV-C light without proper
PPE. Since UV-C is not visible light, the fixtures have safety protocols built-in to avoid exposure.
Many studies have been done on the effects of UV-C and the results show minimal effect in the
short term. Studies have shown short term, temporary damage to the eye can be an effect of
exposure to UV-C light. Long term exposure may produce fading or degradation of some
materials. Amounts of degradation are completely dependent on types and quality of materials
and if they have UV-C protection built-in. The FDA approved waivers on UV-A, UV-B and UV-C,
more information is available from the FDA at: https://www.fda.gov/media/136533/download
For the proper, safe, and effective use of your device it is ESSENTIAL that the user follows
all guidelines and instructions in this manual. Proper installation and use is essential for the
effectiveness and safety of this product.

Benefits of UVC Technology:
• UVC radiation has been proven to be effective against waterborne and airborne pathogenic
micro-organisms including those responsible for cholera, hepatitis, polio, typhoid, giardia,
cryptosporidium and many other bacterial, viral and parasitic diseases
• UVC installations have low capital and operation cost
• UVC installations are easy to operate and to maintain
• UVC radiation works instantly and the effectiveness does not depend on the temperature
• UVC disinfection is a physical process: no substances are added
• The UVC disinfection effect is directly related to the UV dose (which is the product of
intensity and exposure time of the micro-organisms) so it’s effectiveness can be simply
measured once the system design is validated
UV-C Disclaimer
The products being sold pursuant to this Agreement must be installed correctly and used properly
to be effective. Nemesis™ is not responsible for improper installation, usage or damages caused
by the end user. Nemesis™ makes no representations, guarantees or assurances as to the final
effectiveness of using a UV-C lighting system for sanitization. Nemesis™ warrants that with
proper installation and usage, scientific evidence exists proving the effectiveness of UV-C
sanitation. Nemesis™ does not warrant that 100% of viruses, bacteria and germs shall be
eliminated. Effective
UV-C sanitation times are calculated by information provided by the specific radiator
manufacturer. Times vary according to radiator, distance, dosage and type of viruses, bacteria,
germ or mold to be eliminated. Customer understands and accepts that the use of UV-C lighting
can cause fading and discoloration of some materials over extensive prolonged exposure and
that Nemesis™ is not responsible for any damages whatsoever to any materials or equipment
due to the use of the products.

General Guidelines:
DO NOT attempt any repairs on the Typhon™. Anything beyond replacing the radiator and basic
cleaning must be done by a trained technician. Attempts to repair the device will void the
warranty.
Ensure the area being disinfected is clear of any occupants, animals or other living things.
Avoid touching the radiators. Oils and moisture from the skin can cause the coating on the
radiator to deteriorate. Light dusting can be done carefully with a fresh, dry, lint-free cloth. Be
careful when replacing radiators.
Check fixtures for dust at least once a month. Routine cleaning can be done with a fresh, dry,
lint-free cloth or with an air compressor at very low psi. See page 16 for more detailed
instructions on cleaning your Typhon™.
Take care when cleaning debris from broken radiators. DO NOT dispose with household waste,
follow your local hazardous waste guidelines.

Cleaning:
• Check all fixtures on the Tower monthly for dust and other contaminates.
• Unplug fixture from AC power before performing any maintenance.
• Never use alcohol or solvents
• Use vacuum or air compressor (on low PSI setting) and soft brush to remove dust on
fixtures & vents
• Clean fixture with a fresh, dry lint-free cloth
• Dust radiators lightly with a microfiber cloth, DO NOT touch the radiators with bare
hands
Replacing Radiators:
• Remove the Nemesis™ light guard by loosening the four thumb screws located at the
corners on the back of the fixture. Then slide the Nemesis™ light guard up and off of the
fixture. This will allow you to access the radiators.
• DO NOT touch radiators with bare hands, oils from the skin will deteriorate the coating
on the outside of the glass, use sterile gloves and eye protection when working with
radiators
• Twist the top and bottom of the radiator ¼ turn to ‘unlock’ the radiator from the socket
• Remove the old radiator
• Place one end of the new radiator into the socket, gently apply pressure to depress the
socket and allow the other end of the radiator to slide into place
• Twist the top and bottom of the radiator ¼ turn to ‘lock’ it into place
