This User Guide contains basic information for the correct and safe use, operation, and application of the EMS-3000 Series System (Environment Management System-3000 Series System). Please READ this User Guide and its guidelines CAREFULLY and in detail before any attempt is made to operate or utilize this equipment.
Do not use forklifts to raise field service personnel. Secure the EMS-3000 Series ROS Purifier to the lifting device while raising it to the installation point. Be aware of any site hazards that may be present.
EMS air and surface sanitation equipment has been shown to remove up to 99% of airborne and surface contaminates under laboratory conditions. EMS also enhances product quality and life, and meets FDA and USDA requirements. Figure 1. EMS-3000 Series System Specifications Control Model...
The EMS-3000 Series System draws in air from the environment. ROS (Reactive Oxygen Species) are created in the reaction chamber of the EMS-3000 Series System from some of the oxygen in the air. These ROS significantly reduce carbon-based compounds including molds, bacteria, viruses, ethylene, odor molecules, and other hydrocarbons.
EMS is effective as a disinfectant and sterilizing agent at levels of 50% or below of that specified by OSHA for 24-hour exposure levels. The EMS-3000 Series System, as activated by an Ingersoll Rand EMS Certified Technician, operates at controlled ozone levels well below the thresholds dictated by OSHA.
EMS-3000 Series System Operation The EMS-3000 Series System uses the airflow within the room to maximize the distribution of the ROS (Reactive Oxygen Species). This unique feature is a major advantage of the EMS 3000 Series System especially when it is used to treat the ambient air within a target environment.

EMS-3000 Series System Components The system consists of the Ingersoll Rand EMS-3000 Series ROS Purifier(s), diffusion system, control box, and the ozone (O ) sensor. The EMS 3100 and EMS 3300 ROS Purifiers have different specifications. EMS-3100 ROS Purifier 1. EMS-3100 ROS Purifier Indicators Each EMS-3100 ROS Purifier has four (4) indicators located on the front face of the enclosure door to provide visual feedback to the user.

OWER When lit indicates that the EMS-3300 ROS Purifier is connected to 120VAC. HECK YSTEM When lit the customer should contact an Ingersoll Rand EMS Certified Technician for service. THER NDICATOR IGHTS There are two (2) additional indicators between the Medium and the High indicators. During the activation process the Ingersoll Rand EMS Certified Technician will adjust the system to provide higher or lower ROS capacity for the Medium setting.

High purifier output. Purification chambers 1 and 2 operate for Medium, and purification chambers 1, 2, 3 and 4 operate for High (in the original factory settings). Modifications to this configuration may be made by the Ingersoll Rand EMS Certified Technician when the system is activated. Make note of the new configuration in this manual.
Page 22
The control box should only be opened by an authorized Ingersoll Rand EMS Certified Technician. The control box requires power in order to control the EMS-3000 Series System. The control box provides power to both the PLC and ozone sensor. 1. Indicator Lights The control box has twelve (12) indicators located on the front face to provide visual feedback to the user.
Page 23
In the event that the room needs to be shut down temporarily (as in the case of pre-cooler rooms, and ripening rooms.), the control box disconnect switch is set to OFF. This disables all the purifiers connected to the control box and keeps them from producing ROS. Setting the control box disconnect switch to OFF will also disconnect the incoming electrical power to the control box, allowing the front cover to be opened.
The PLC (programmable logic controller) display has been designed to display information, providing a true snapshot of the environment and the EMS-3000 Series Purifier in real time. At system startup the PLC will display the Version of EMS-3000 Series Software installed as shown in Figure 12.
Page 25
The PLC will display SENSOR: OK if the ozone sensor is operating correctly, SENSOR: SF if the ozone sensor head has a failure, or SENSOR: NC if the EMS-3000 Series sensor cannot be detected due to damage or a failure in the environmental sensor base. The PLC also displays whether Stage 1 and Stage 2 are ON or OFF.
This would cause the speed of the internal fan to fluctuate and could cause sensor failure. The Ingersoll Rand EMS Certified Technician will install the proper sensor for the room type (controlled atmosphere/low oxygen head vs. standard head). If the room application changes please contact the...
Three control points are defined during the installation, which are used to calculate the activation of high or medium output when the 3000 Series System is in operation. To illustrate the typical operation of the EMS-3000 Series System, an example setup is listed below using the following ozone level settings: ...
Page 28
Figure 16 illustrates the following points regarding the EMS-3000 Series System operation: The PLC will activate both Medium and High outputs at the same time when the ozone level is under the set low control point (0.020ppm). The PLC will deactivate the High output when the ozone level reaches the medium control point (0.030ppm).
The EMS-3000 Series System must be kept clean at all times. As with all electrical equipment, avoid excessive contact with water and excessive humidity at all times. Short circuits may occur if the equipment comes in direct contact with liquids while it is in operation.
Reference your Ingersoll Rand parts manual for your EMS-3000 Series System filter part numbers. Ensure you have a sufficient supply of filters to operate your EMS-3000 Series System for the next six months. In order to keep your system working at its optimal output, we recommend you change your filters every two (2) weeks, as well as inspect the filter media once a week.

3. Discard old filter 4. Replace filter with new EMS-3000 Series turbine filter media 5. Reinstall filter retainer into finger guard assembly 6. Gently snap together the filter retainer into the finger guard assembly (use the standard screwdriver if necessary) Figure 19.
System Shutdown for Room Maintenance During normal operation of the EMS-3000 Series System maintenance will be done on the room as well as on the EMS-3000 Series System. Be aware that any gases used on products, cleaning chemicals used in sanitation, or dust from room construction or maintenance can damage the EMS system.

The revision and maintenance of the equipment must be performed by Ingersoll Rand EMS Certified Technicians, using the appropriate instrumentation and following the timing indicated in the table listed below. Filter replacement is to be performed by the customer.
FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) Q: Does having the doors open make a difference? A: Yes. The room environment must be controlled for the EMS-3000 Series System to run effectively. Q: I see fog in the room, is this normal? A: Yes. The fog is water vapor. Depending on the environment, a moisture fog can form in the room. Fog is most often noticed in rooms maintained at temperatures below 36...
