WARNING: FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE RULES MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY
1 Read instruction manual before operating the units.
2 Eye damage may result from directly viewing the light produced by these lamps. To reduce the risk of
exposure to UV radiation, take UV-radiation protective measures for personnel during servicing.
3 This fixture is designed for use with germicidal UV-C lamps and must be installed in compliance with
competent technical directions so that user’s eyes and bare skin will not be subjected to injurious rays.
4 UV Light Hazard. To prevent exposure to ultraviolet light, be sure the ultraviolet air treatment system is
disconnected before servicing any part of the HVAC system or removing any access panel or the equivalent.
5 There shall not be any openings in the duct that would emit light.
6 There shall not be any duct supply or return air openings or any other openings that are in direct line-of-sight
of the UV bulb.

that the unit will operate properly. Any part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced.
8 Always service unit with Second Wind replacement parts & recommended accessories (i.e. lamps, ballast).
CAUTION: Disconnect power before starting installation or maintenance.
1 Personal Injury Hazard. Power supply can cause electrical shock. Disconnect power supply before servicing
or beginning installation.
2 Risk of exposure to excessive ultraviolet (UV) radiation—Do not operate without complete lamp enclosure in
place or if sight lens is damaged.
3 Equipment Damage Hazard. Ultraviolet light can cause color shift or surface degradation and sometimes
structural degradation of non-metallic components. Select mounting location that prevents exposure to
plastic flexible duct components, polyurethane foam insulation material, rubber hoses, wire insulations, etc.
If mounting options are limited, items above should be protected with ultraviolet resistant materials such as
aluminum foil, aluminum duct tape, or metallic shields.
4 Electrical shock hazard from 24 volt or 120/277 VAC may cause serious injury or death.
5 Follow Proper Disposal Techniques for UV lamps (pg.3)
6 Wear protective gloves and safety glasses when handling lamp. To prevent injury, unplug lamp connector and
allow to cool for 10 minutes before servicing.
INSTALLATION LOCATION:
1. Products shall be mounted only on to metal components of air ducts or air handlers (AHU)
2. Mounting shall be such that all surfaces in the duct where appliance forms parts of the duct shall be made of
metal.
3. All wiring within adjacent heating and air conditioning equipment, for example, shall be shaded from direct
line-of-sight from the UV bulb or shall be UV-rated.
1. Install the lamp where you have easy access.
2. Drilling is not required for mounting over or around coil exterior. Before installation under A-coil make sure
before drilling into equipment that there is nothing in the way that would be damaged. Z –bracket to be

UV lamps contain mercury like other household lamps and must be disposed of properly. State requirements
and recycling opportunities vary, go to www.lamprecycle.org for State Regulations & Contacts. Please
contact your county waste collection department for proper disposal details.
USE GLOVES AND EYE PROTECTION
If a lamp is broken, do not use a vacuum cleaner to pick up the waste . Instead, sweep up the waste into a
plastic bag and seal. Contact your county waste collection department for proper disposal details.
If the unit does not work, check the following:
Electrical Supply/Wiring—Verify that the electrical
service is operating correctly.
Ballast—If lamp still is not illuminating check the
wiring to the ballast. If the ballast is wired properly and
the lamp still does not illuminate, replace the ballast.
With a fully electronic ballast there is no resistance
testing.
Transformer—If a transformer is employed to provide
power to the unit (not provided by Second Wind), it
should be tested in accordance with instructions
provided with unit when installed.
Lamp—Verify that the lamp is not broken and is
properly seated in the lamp connector. To check this,
follow steps in the ’Lamp Replacement’ section with
one exception: you should not remove and replace the
lamp. If the lamp is broken read the ‘Lamp Disposal’
section of this manual.

lamp ( Be careful old lamp may still be hot ! ).
5. Replace the old lamp with the new lamp, making sure the new
lamp is clean. If the new lamp is dirty or has fingerprints on it
remove with an alcohol wipe.
6. Place lamp bracket over new lamp base and secure with the nuts.
7. Attach lamp connector to the lamp base and use nuts to secure.
8. Turn on electrical service and unit.
