UV Lamp Safety Information Ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI) is used for the activation of the PCO Catalyst. The residual light presents a variety of potential health hazards to humans. These hazards include eye damage, skin burns, and the potential to cause skin cancer. Because germicidal UV rays are invisible to the human eye, personnel may be subjected to a hazardous dose of UV without warning.

Caution: B units that are exposed to fluctuating temperatures may allow water vapor to condense of the interior or exterior of the duct. Condensation can cause corrosion of duct components and electrical components. Caution: Uninsulated ductwork can allow heat to be transferred between the duct and external air. This can result in an unnecessary strain on the buildings HVAC system.

Maintenance Filter Replacement The B unit includes a pre-filter to remove large particles from the air stream. This prevents the buildup of debris on the Catalyst Panel. The pre-filter should be replaced when it has become built up with dirt and other contaminants.
HEPA Filter Replacement The B may also include a 20” x 24” x 6” HEPA filter. A HEPA filter can be selected as an option for the B1, B2, or B3. Direction of Air Flow Figure 11 HEPA Filter Replacement Procedure 1.) Disconnect unit from power supply.
Lamp Replacement The B unit includes 20” UVC lamps. These lamps are used to energize the catalyst. Each 2021 PCP contains (3) 20” lamps manufactured by First Light Technologies, Inc or UV Engineering Solutions LLC. Lamps must be replaced after 12,000 hours of continuous use. The manufacturer recommends replacing lamps every 16 months or once a year.

12.) Place catalyst panel(s) back into B unit. Be sure that arrows on panel point in the direction of air flow. If B is installed upside down, reinsert the 10-16 self-drilling screws into their original holes, holding the catalyst panel(s) in place. Note: Air flows in through the filter grille and out through the fan grille.
Ballast Tray Troubleshooting Procedure Troubleshooting All Fluorescent Fixtures Start here Safety First: Voltage and current measurements present the possibility of exposure to hazardous voltages and should be performed only by qualified personnel. Many Bring lamps Fixture Operational Lamps Out? troubleshooting techniques require measurements with to full output input voltages applied requiring extra precautions to avoid electrical shock.
Ballast Replacement. There is not a set lifetime for ballasts. Ballasts are intended to last the life of the unit. However, ballasts can fail prematurely and will need to be replaced. Always replace with ballasts sold through your CenterPoint air purifier supplier. See Ballast Troubleshooting for diagnosing ballast faults. Ballast Replacement Procedure 1.) Disconnect unit from power supply.
8.) Reinsert and tighten the (2) nuts that hold the ballast in place with an 11/32” socket wrench. See Figures 17 and 18. 9.) Reconnect the lamp plugs and reconnect ballast wires into push-in connectors. 10.) Place catalyst panel(s) back into B unit. Be sure that arrows on panel point in the direction of air flow.
