The
power source is designed to deliver maximum production radiance and
reliability while suppressing noise. The electronic ballast is operational
with 110/220/ 277VAC at 50/60Hz and will operate the American-Lights® HO
UV lamps in airstreams of 35-135ºF and airflows to 1,000 FPM.
Use of other UV lamp styles will damage power supply and void warranty.
UV Light Specifications
All American - Lights® units are factory
assembled and tested. They consist of a power source, UV germicidal bulb and
housing, all constructed to withstand HVAC environments.
The UV bulb is similar in design
to a normal fluorescent bulb. It is a 4-pin ceramic base bulb with Teflon
wiring. It is constructed of type “L”, hard glass quartz which
eliminates ozone production. Heat output is low and the light can fit into
a wide variety of locations within the HVAC system. Effective lamp life
is approximately one year..
The housing is constructed of
durable commercial great 304 stainless steel for many years of worry-free
service. All components are incorporated into one integral assembly that
maximizes serviceability. The lamp is held in place and supported in the
airstream by using heavy duty spring fasteners that also allow for quick
and easy service.
UV
Lamp
should be mounted a minimum of 30” from heat source if on supply
side and at lease 30" away from any plastic air filters.
Prolonged
exposure to the UV lamp will burn the retina of the eyes and skin.
