reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of
experience and knowledge, unless they have been given
supervision or instruction.

specialist mains cable available from P+L Systems Ltd or your
supplier.
Not suitable for applications where potentially explosive
environments may exist.
POSITIONING AND GUIDANCE FOR USE
THIS UNIT IS FOR INDOOR USE ONLY.
UplighterTM should ideally be fixed around two meters above
the ground, preferably in the darkest place within the area to
be protected. Do not position the unit close to windows,
skylights or other sources of light, or where it may be obscured
by furniture, doors or other obstacles. Ideally, UplighterTM
should be visible from every part of the area to be protected.
UplighterTM should ideally be in operation for 24 hours a day,
ensuring your premises are kept free of flying insects. Insects
are most attracted to UplighterTM at night when there is no
competition from daylight or other light sources.

invalidate the guarantee. Ensure genuine glupac®

INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION SHOULD BE CARRIED OUT BY SERVICE
PERSONNEL ONLY.
UplighterTM should be mounted as shown in the mounting
options section of this document, using the supplied wall
mounting plugs and screws, making sure correct wall plugs
are used for specialist mounting materials, such as
plasterboard.
To install UplighterTM, drill two fixing holes at the appropriate
distance as described below, before inserting the wall plugs
then inserting the fixing screws. To firmly secure UplighterTM
into position, swing down the front guard, then mark the
location of the third fixing hole onto the mounting surface.
Remove UplighterTM, then drill the final fixing hole and insert
the wall plug. Finally, replace UplighterTM onto the two fixing
screws through the keyhole slots, before securing in position
by screwing through the round fixing hole. Swing the front
guard back into position.
Once installed in position, fit the glupac®glueboard in
position as described in the glueboard replacement section
of this document. Use the removable mains lead and plug to
connect the UplighterTM to an appropriate power supply.
CLEANING
CLEANING SHOULD BE CARRIED OUT BY SERVICE PERSONNEL
ONLY, AFTER ENSURING THAT THE UNIT IS DISCONNECTED
FROM THE MAINS SUPPLY.
It is recommended that cleaning is carried out regularly when
the glueboard is replaced. Once the glueboard is removed,
the unit should be thoroughly wiped down with a damp
cloth, removing any build up of dirt. Ensure the unit is
completely dry before reconnecting it to the power supply.

SPECIFICATION / REPLACEMENT PARTS
GLUEBOARD REPLACEMENT
GLUEBOARD REPLACEMENT SHOULD BE CARRIED OUT BY SERVICE PERSONNEL ONLY, AFTER
ENSURING THAT THE UNIT IS DISCONNECTED FROM THE MAINS SUPPLY.
The glueboard should be replaced every month with a genuine glupac®glueboard. Use of
non-approved glueboards may invalidate your guarantee.
To replace the glueboard…
1. Remove the used glupac®glueboard by simply sliding it out of the top of
the front guard and either retain for insect evaluation or dispose of it hygienically.
2. Remove the protective release paper from the new glupac®glueboard.
3. Slowly slide the new glueboard into position with the adhesive side facing the tube.
Always ensure the selected genuine glupac®glueboards are compatible with your unit, available
from your pest control operator or P+L Systems Ltd.
TUBE REPLACEMENT
TUBE REPLACEMENT SHOULD BE CARRIED OUT BY SERVICE PERSONNEL ONLY, AFTER ENSURING THAT
THE UNIT IS DISCONNECTED FROM THE MAINS SUPPLY.
To ensure the efficiency of UplighterTM in catching flying insects, the UV tube should be replaced
annually. After twelve months the phosphor coating that emits the correct wavelength of UV light
has burnt away and the UV output is diminished substantially.
To replace the UV tube...
1. Rotate the tube through 90 degrees.
2. Gently pull the tube away from the unit.
3. Dispose of the used UV tube in conjunction with local WEEE regulations.
STARTER REPLACEMENT
BEFORE REPLACING THE STARTER, ALWAYS ENSURE THAT THE UNIT IS DISCONNECTED FROM THE
MAINS SUPPLY.
The starter provides an extra spark to initially light the UV tube. Starters wear out and should be
replaced at the same intervals as the UV tube.
To replace the starter…
1. Rotate the starter anti-clockwise.
2. Pull the starter free from the unit.
3. Insert the replacement starter and reverse steps one and two.
