Replacement Lamp Part Number:
10” NON-Ozone Full Spectrum UVGI Lamp 2998 compliant........................AS-IH-1013-1
Maintenance:
Typical maintenance of the purier is recommended replacement of the UVC Lamp
every 18,000 hours approximately 2 years, for optimum results change lamps every
year.
UV lamps undergo a photochemical process during operation. This slowly reduces
the amount of UV light generated to disinfect against airborne pathogens.
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.
