Safety Precautions:
It is recommended that this unit be installed and maintained by a trained technician.
WARNING: UV Hazard. Always protect eyes from ultraviolet light. NEVER look at UV
lamps in operation. Unplug or disconnect power before re-lamping or servicing.
WARNING: Severe eye damage or temporary blindness may occur.
WARNING: DO NOT operate outside of air handler. Mount product in preferred
location rst.
WARNING: No openings should be allowed which would give direct line-of-sight to the UV
light.
Note: In the event of accidental breakage or replacement of the ultraviolet lamp, please
ensure that the lamp is disposed of in accordance with local and state environmental laws
regarding uorescent lamps containing mercury.
Notice:
All wiring inside of the air handler in direct line of site of the UV lamp must be shielded with
aluminum foil tape or equivalent non-combustible material. When installing this unit, select
a mounting location that prevents ultraviolet light exposure to synthetic or other plastic com-
ponents with unknown resistance to ultraviolet light. Ultraviolet light may cause color shi
or structural degradation of plastic internal components.
Maintenance:
Typical maintenance of the Air Purifying System is recommended replacement of the UVC
lamp every year.
UV lamps undergo a photochemical process during operation. is slowly reduces the
amount of UV light generated to disinfect against airborne pathogens.
Note: For the Signature Series models you must reset the service indicator light aer each
lamp replacement. with the power on press and hold the RESET button for 10 seconds using
a non-metallic implement. e LED should turn blue while the button is depressed. Release
the RESET button, and the LED should remain blue.
Important:
When installing new lamps, ensure that the lamp glass is free from any ngerprints or debris,
as this may alter the path of the UV energy. Use rubbing alcohol and a dry cloth to remove
any surface contaminants.
Replacement Lamp Log Sheet:
Included with the product is a replacement lamp log sheet. It is provided as a label so it can
be attached near the installation to ensure lamp replacements are being tracked.

Signature Series
models shown

Step 1. Mechanical installation
1.Determine a location for the oxidation module. Mount the unit on the exit or supply side
of the HVAC system and before the ductwork branches o.
2.Separate the power module from the mounting plate
3.Remove lamp protector used for shipping
purposes. (Fig. 1 PhotoMax only)
Remove protecive gasket from around lamp used for shipping
purposes. Move module to the open position and remove
gasket. (Fig. 2 UVCatalyst only)
4.Mark a 4” round opening (or use the end of the oxidation module to mark the area) on the
air duct and cut the hole needed for the insertion of the advanced oxidation module. Attach
large sguare gasket (supplied) to air duct around 4” opening. Adjust Photon Clarier. (Pho-
tomax only see step 3)
5.Insert the mounting plate / oxidation module into opening and
attach to duct with two supplied self -tapping screws in the lower
le and upper right (only). For UVCatalyst models ensure catalyst
position actuator is in the closed position (as shown g. 3.) Attach
large square gasket (supplied) to air duct around 4” opening. Place
module against ductwork. Fasten module in place with four self-
tapping screws (supplied) in lower and uppermounting positions.
Once installed push in and relocate the catalyst actuators to the
open position (as shown g. 4).is ensures you maxamize the
surface area of titanium infused carbon to allow you to acheive
maximum performance.
6.Place the power module on the unit aligning holes in tabs with
holes in mounting plate (upper le /lower right).
7.Secure the power module to the mounting plate with the remaining
two self-tapping screws.
Step 2. Electrical installation
1. For line voltage models simply plug the 120v cord into the power supply and then into a
proper recepticle follow all applicable local code.
2. 24v models must be connected to a dedicated minimum 40va transformer with supplied
power cord. (Read below)
1. Disconnect power supply before beginning installation to prevent electrical shock or
equipment damage.
2. Connect secondary voltage. Refer to voltage color or terminal coding on transformer for
proper wire combination. On terminal type transformer, be sure that no exposed wire can
come in contact with any terminal.
3. Connect primary voltage. Refer to voltage color coding on transformer for proper wire
combination. See Fig. 1 for connection and installation.
4. Tape or protect all unused exposed wire separatly to avoid a possible electrical short.
5. Check installation and reconnect power supply for proper operation.
Step 3. Adjusting the Photon Clarier
e UVPhotoMAX™ is a universal air purier with a patented
design that provides adjustability to the advanced photo-
catalytic process for a variety of treated space sizes.
When setting up your equipment, adjust the Photon Clarier
Adjuster (under electronics cover) to the appropriate position
based on the square footage of the home or CFM of the air
handler. Fine adjustments may be required depending upon
household living characteristics.
Lamp Replacement Procedure
e UV lamp is shipped installed in the equipment and should
be replaced during an annual service. To replace the UV lamp
follow the steps below:
1. Unplug power cord and remove power module. (See Fig. 1)
2. Note the position of the Photon Clarier and pull adjustment
bar to its full-out position. (See Fig. 2 Photomax only)
3. Remove lamp screws and pull lamp out of oxidation module.
(See Fig. 3)
4. Install new lamp and fasten with lamp screws.
5. Set the Photon Clarier to its noted setting. (Photmax only)
6. Place the power module on the unit and fasten.
7. Plug in power cord.

Note: For Signature Series models you must reset the service indicator light aer each lamp
replacement. with the power on press and hold the RESET button for 10 seconds using a
non-metallic implement. e LED should turn blue while the button is depressed. Release
the RESET button, and the LED should remain blue.
Installing EZ-Light 6P
1. Turn o power to system being upgraded by unpluging the power cord from power unit.
2. Remove blank plug by squeezing it from the inside of the electrical enclosure with a pair
of pliers and pushing it out of the enclosure.
3. Disconnect the 6 pin connector in line with the lamp connector.
4. Connect the supplied ‘‘Y’’ connector to the 6 pin connector in the system and connect
the lamp connector into the ‘‘Y’’ connector.
Note:All the connectors are specic to its location and can not be connected incorrectly.
5.Plug the lamp connector fully onto the installed UVCatalyst lamp. Be sure the four
pinholes are orientated properly to the four matching pins on the lamp.
EZ-Light 6P (Option)
Some HVAC equipment can benet from additional UV lamps. e Ultravation Air Purifying
System power supply will operate a second UV lamp to disinfect additional areas inside the
HVAC system such as the blower fan. e EZ-Light 6P is designed specically for second lamp
applications or add odor control capabilities.
