ABOUT THE PRODUCT
The Sanuvair® S1000 VOC is designed to help reduce smoke buildup by continuously drawing air through a UV chamber. The
detector automatically turns on and off a second lamp to actively deal with the increase or decrease of smoke.
For information or recommendations on how to size your specic application, please call SANUVOX at 1-888-726-8869.
COMPONENTS
How it Works
The Sanuvair® S1000 VOC is comprised of a ventilator, speed selection switch, a MERV8 prelter, two UV lamps and a volatile
organic compound (VOC) detector. The ventilator pulls air through the unit, exposing it to the UV lamps, which reduces odors
through a photo-oxydation process. Air is then circulated through the MERV8 prelter and supplied back to the room. The VOC
detector turns the second UV lamp on when required.
