Small unit systems (SUS) are the perfect breeding ground for mold and
bacteria. Each time the system runs, these contaminants, airborne viruses and
foul odors are circulated throughout the environment. Research has shown that
building occupants exposed to such contaminants can develop health issues,
including sinus congestion and headaches, allergy, asthma, upper respiratory
ailments, along with colds and flu. The V-Ray continuously destroys contami-
nants, protecting both occupants and technicians.
ALTRU-V applies real science and the
relentless cleaning power of ultraviolet light
for optimal HVAC maintenance solutions.
The V-Ray has become one of the most cost-effective HVAC maintenance
tools. A typical installation of the V-Ray pays for itself in short order through
maintenance and energy savings. When installed, the lamps destroy typical
HVAC system contaminants including molds and bacteria (sources of poor IAQ,
allergy triggers, and moldy odor) and restore the system to "near new" perform-
ance characteristics. Clean systems can deliver savings through improved heat
exchange efficiency, airflow and long equipment life. The V-Ray also produces
positive occupant and visitor responses. Among UVC products by ALTRU-V,
V-Ray provides one of the lowest lifecycle costs, while offering lamps with
the highest output retention and lowest mercury content in the industry.
V-Ray products are specifically designed for longevity, occupant safety, installer/
service personnel safety, and reliable operation. UVC energy exposure is an
important issue when designing products for small unit systems. The V-Ray
product line utilizes UL recognized components and is ETL Listed for specific
use within HVAC units of all shapes and sizes. V-Ray is manufactured in an
ISO9001:2000 certified plant for guaranteed quality and reliability. Unlike
other cleaning regimens that can expose maintenance personnel and building
occupants to dangerous chemicals or toxic fumes, the V-Ray offers a passive,
non-chemical approach to continuous HVAC system maintenance.

Air Quality
Airborne particles, known as
bioaerosols, account for 60–80% of indoor air
quality problems. According to the World Health
Organization, these contaminants account for a
substantial portion of absences from school and
work, and can lead to lower productivity.
The V-Ray's design allows for ease of installation in almost any system size from
12" to 64" in width with power requirements from 100Vac to 277Vac. V-Ray
fixtures can be mounted in any orientation to properly irradiate the target surface.
The V-Ray can be installed to irradiate coils and drain pans where they degrade
organic and microbial build-up that causes foul odors and clogged pan drains,
causing overflow of water that can cause significant damage to surrounding
material (e.g., ceiling tiles, carpet, etc.). The patent pending system can be
installed using a permanently fixed lamp clip or via a patent pending magnetic
lamp clip design. The V-Ray components are UL listed and the system is
listed with ETL.
