    If in doubt, contact Nordicco A/S for the processing of a damage report and the replacement of spare parts if necessary.

  • Page 8: Fire Precautions

    Flame detectors are typically used in rooms with high ceilings and in atriums. The HVLS fans should not be installed in the line of sight of a linear smoke detector, as this may cause false alarms to trigger on the Automatic Fire Alarm system. A linear smoke detector uses invisible beams of ultraviolet and infra-red light.
  • Page 9 Scenario 3: HVLS fans installed in a room where sprinkler systems are installed. The actions listed in scenario 1 should be followed, in addition to the following points, which are recommended by the NFPA (National Fire Protection Association): The largest HVLS fan diameter should not exceed 8 meters.

  • Page 20: General Instructions

    GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS UVC irradiation measurements are required in several cases, including: o At first installation o When installing new UVC light sources o When moving the fan to a new position in the room o When making changes or adjustments in the room (e.g. height, position, change in placement of walls or ceiling and wall materials, change in room dimensions etc.) o When any kind of reports or complaints about possible overexposure have been made After the measurement assessment, the system will be in compliance with the limit values...

  • Page 22: Activities Prior To Performing The Assessment

    ACTIVITIES PRIOR TO THE ASSESSMENT Before installation, NORDICCO recommends that light sources are burned in for 100 hours, if possible. After the burn-in has been completed, the lamps will be stable and can be considered as a fixed starting point when starting to take the measurements. Failure to complete the 100- hour burn-in period may result in higher initial readings.

  • Page 23: Assessment And Measurement Instructions

    ASSESSMENT AND MEASUREMENT INSTRUCTIONS 1. Create a table with the required number of measuring grid-points, see assessment form Appendix F . The grid-points should be placed at equal distances from each other. See the figure and table below to determine the number of measuring grid-points: Length Maximum distance between Minimum...

    SENSOR ORIENTATION The sensor is rotated 180 degree in each direction to The sensor is form a half sphere initially orientated towards the UVC system 183cm Figure 7: Examples of different sensor directions when measuring to locate hotspots.

  • Page 27: Mechanical Damping Of Uvc System

    MECHANICAL DAMPING OF UVC SYSTEM The system must be damped if irradiation intensities that exceed permitted values c.f. APPENDIX A – LIMIT VALUES FOR ARTIFICIAL OPTICAL IRRADIATION are registered during the assessment. Mechanical damping is done by replacing the glass/or aperture shield that covers the integrated UVC light sources with an aperture shield that blocks sufficient irradiation.

  • Page 28: Documentation And Deliveries

    DOCUMENTATION AND DELIVERABLES After activation, assessment and possible damping/calibration of the system, an assessment report must be prepared and made available to all involved parties. The report must at least contain the following information: o Inspection report A safety inspection must be performed if the UVC installer has not been responsible for the fan’s suspension and connection to ensure that the fan is installed correctly as set out in Part 1 of the installation procedure.

  • Page 29: The Assessment Form

    THE ASSESSMENT FORM Complete an assessment form to document the irradiation intensity in the room. The assessment form in its entirety can be found in APPENDIX F – ASSESSMENT FORM. Complete the form with the relevant information listed below: 1. Specify Address, Building Number and Room Number 2.

  • Page 32: Appendix A - Limit Values For Artificial Optical Irradiation

    APPENDIX A – LIMIT VALUES FOR ARTIFICIAL OPTICAL IRRADIATION When calibrating the system, the limit values specified in EN 62471 Photobiological safety of lamps and lamp systems must be observed. Table 2 states the maximum permitted limit values for the Northern Light System, calculated on the basis of EN 62471. The same limit values are specified in the UE Directive 2006/25/EC - artificial optical radiation and its requirements will therefore also be satisfied if these limit values are complied with.
