2 Installation Notes
The PCO MAG is usually installed inside the central
air handling system. The unit should be oriented so
that the air flows past the UV Light first then into
the Matrix Element but a reversed installation is
permitted if mounting on the return-side of the coil.
If a second optional UV lamp is used (PCO MAG
Dual) select a location inside the air system that
will allow it to shine on the greatest surface area or
the area with the most evident microbial growth.
To install the secondary UV light use the Optional
2nd Remote UV Light Installation Instructions
provided with PCO MAG Dual.

Surface Installation
1.
Determine the optimal position for
placement of PCO MAG inside the air
system.
2.
Use a utility knife to cut a slit in the
insulation on the interior surface.
WARNING
3.
Place the magnetic mounting bracket
directly on the metal surface or remove the
O
magnet and hard-mount the bracket using
the self-tapping screws provided. Use foil
tape to close the cut in the insulation.
Systems with high 24 VAC loads may require the installation of a separate 24 VAC
transformer to power the UV light.
Always use a separate 24 VAC transformer with "communicating" air systems and all
Patriot PCO Dual (PAT-PCO-DER) models.
Draws 16 VA, may need to do load calculation: Volts under load X Amps under load.

Lamp Replacement
The germicidal UV lamp in Patriot PCO needs to be
replaced periodically. TUVL-111P and TUVL115P lamps
should be replaced every year. TUVL-211P and TUVL-215P
should be replaced every 2 years.
Note: UV lamps will continue to emit visible light but lose
germicidal effectiveness over time. You can upgrade to a 2
year lamp with your existing Patriot PCO system.
CAUTION!
UV lamps contain small amounts of mercury - dispose of lamps in accordance with
local environmental regulations. For more information visit www.lamprecycle.org
Note: Use of replacement UV lamps other than Patriot UV voids warranty.
