9. Do not handle the lamp with bare hands. Oils on your hands tend to reduce lamp intensity. Install lamp into ballast.(See Figure 6)
10. Wipe off the lamp glass with the supplied alcohol wipe. Then
insert the lamp through the center hole of the mounting base.(See Figure 7) The power cord must be 90° to the viewport hole on the mounting base.
11. With the ballast pressed against the mounting base, rotate the
ballast clockwise 90º.
12. Do not wire the unit into the appliance fan circuit. Premature failure of the ballast and lamp will occur. The warranty will be
voided. Plug the power supply cord into a standard 120VAC
electric outlet. Check lamp operation by looking through the
viewport hole. NOTE: The viewport hole is made of glass and
will not allow any UVC rays to pass through. A blue glow should be seen in the duct.
13. If blue glow is not seen, make sure the base is properly installed onto duct. There is a proving switch located on the base that needs to be seated properly onto the duct.
Make sure when installing the base the plated washer on the switch is raised approximately 3⁄16". The proving switch must be fully engaged. (See Figure 8)

14.With aluminum or foil tape, seal all joints and seams of the plenum near the mounting location to reduce any direct viewing of light.
