About Dry Hydrogen Peroxide (DHPTM)
Synexis®is the sole developer of hydrogen peroxide gas and Dry Hydrogen Peroxide (DHP™) Technology
for occupied spaces. Using DHP, our patented microbial reduction technology allows for the natural and
continuous reduction of microbial contamination in occupied spaces. Our microbial reduction systems
are patented for use in the United States and around the world. By encompassing all areas of an
enclosed space, DHP can reach the most important areas of a facility. The critical differentiator of DHP
from other forms of hydrogen peroxide is that DHP can be safely delivered in occupied spaces.
Using ambient humidity and oxygen naturally present in your environment, our technology creates a
safe level of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) gas, which reduces unwanted microbial contamination in the air
and on surfaces. Because DHP is a true gas, it can reach the toughest and most out-of-reach areas of
your facility. Dry Hydrogen Peroxide is effective because of its state of matter and method of action.

code for 120 VAC/60 Hz power (for US). If you are uncertain how to properly wire the device,
please consult or contract a qualied electrician.
✔
This device is designed for a closed duct system. Do not mount it near a return air opening.
✔
This device is designed for indoor installation only (i.e. attics, basements, etc.). It is for use in
the duct work of gas red, oil red, electric and split system heat pump forced air systems. It
is NOT designed to be mounted outside on gas red or heat pump packaged units.
• Split system heat pumps are systems where the air handler and the air conditioning
compressor are separate units.
• Packaged units are systems where the air handler and air conditioning compressor are
built together and installed outside the building.

Getting The Best Performance From Your System
✔
Proper number of units to cover your square footage
The Synexis Blade Inline DHP system is easy to use. Make sure the proper number of units
are installed for the size of the HVAC system and for the square footage of the facility. In
some cases, multiple Synexis units may be necessary. Be sure to change the sail according
to the recommended replacement schedule. Leave the replacement sail in its plastic bag and
store it in a dark, dry location until you need to replace the current sail in your Synexis Blade
Inline DHP system.
✔
Doors and windows closed
The Synexis Blade Inline DHP system is designed for enclosed spaces, so it is important
to keep all external windows and doors closed as much as possible. Open windows and/or
doors can signicantly reduce the eciency of your system by allowing the DHP to dissipate
out of the facility.
Continuous operation 24/7/365
The Synexis Blade Inline DHP system is designed to operate 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
DHP is meant to be a continuous clean technology as opposed to a temporary clean
technology. The DHP molecule is delicate and safe at low concentration. Producing it
continuously ensures a proper equilibrium concentration in your space for effective
decontamination.
✔
Maintain a proper cleaning and replacement schedule
Do not try to repair or adjust any of the electrical components in your Synexis Blade Inline
system yourself. Contact Synexis Technical Support at 844-352-7680 for assistance and any
questions you have about what is covered by your warranty.

Installation
Identify a suitable location for the unit
downstream from both the ‘A’ coil in the
supply plenum and from the air lter.
Use provided duct cutout template. Apply the template to the section of
duct that is desired for the installation.
Remove the ‘Cut Out Area’ of the template.
Drill the 1/8 inch diameter holes where
indicated on the template. Trace the ‘Cut
Out Area’ with a marker and remove the
template.
Ensure that the bulb is centered with
respect to the sail frame.
Utilizing a step drill bit, drill a hole within
the area of the duct to be removed.
Remove the remaining section of sheet
metal from the ‘Cut Out Area’ using a
pair of tin snips or a jig saw.

Installation (cont.)
Remove the electrical box cover and the
knockout from the electrical housing on
the desired side for wiring purposes.
The view port on the bottom of the sail
frame should be glowing purple. This
indicates power is running to the
Synexis Blade Inline DHP system
and the bulb is operational.
Remove the sail (the DHP Technology
Sail) from the plastic bag it was stored
in. Locate the four (4) push rivets on the
base of the unit. Gently insert the sail
with the sail frame oriented so that the
push rivets line up.
The unit is designed so that the sail can
only be inserted in the correct orientation
or the push rivets will not line up.
Mount the unit base to the duct using
the eight (8) mounting screws provided.
Wire the recommended switch and
ballast using 120 VAC (for US). Check
with NEC standards, NFPA standards
and local electrical codes for the
required wire type, size and connectors.
Replace the electrical box cover and
apply power to the unit.
Rotate the knob at the top of the sail
frame 180 degrees so that the clip at
the top of the sail frame holds the sail
in place. After the DHP sail has been
installed into the sail frame, insert the
sail frame back into the unit and attach
the four snap rivets on the base of the
unit.
Power on and inspect your Synexis Blade Inline DHP system

If the bulb still does not light up, using a voltmeter, verify that the ballast has power
on the input side. Check all electrical connections and the electrical breaker if there is
no power to the ballast.
✔
If the bulb still doesn’t light up, using a voltmeter, verify that the ballast is generating
