Operation Principles & Technology
Scientific studies say:
The entire UV spectrum can wipe out or neutralize many microorganism species,
preventing them from replicating. UVC energy at 253.7 nanometers provides the
ideal germicidal effect. A combination of UVC + UVA is very effective at
disinfection as well as odor removal.
When exposing microorganisms to UVC light, the light penetrates through their cell wall and disrupts the structure of their DNA molecules, prohibiting reproduction.
Keep in Mind
Prolonged exposure to direct LED UV Light may be harmful to eyes & skin
Indirect exposure (blue glow) is not harmful

Introduction to UVC Mini Kits
UVC MINI KITS are an innovative application of UV disinfection in Mini-Splits
and other space-limited systems.
It is normally used to disinfect an air conditioning system, by halting any
bio-growth on fan, coils, and other surfaces, and related bad odors. It helps
substantially to maintain a clean, fresh air conditioner system, improve the
indoor air quality, extends life span, and reduces maintenance cost.
Because space is tight and sufficient exposure of surfaces is required, the
UVC MINI KITS is best installed inside the supply vent with the light shining
onto the blower wheel (which is prone to contain concentrated mold growth).

CAUTION UV LED LIGHT
Prolonged exposure to direct LED UV light may be harmful to eyes & skin.
Disconnect power before servicing. Indirect exposure (blue glow) is not
harmful.
IMPORTANT!
Install LED strip so that the light shines into the air system, not into
the room.
Air System Preparation Before Installation
1. Remove the cabinet cover disconnect Power Supply
- Detach filters
- Dismantle the LED display assembly
- Open the control box cover
2a. Detach drain pan to access the area behind it.
2b. For systems with non-removable drain pans, remove the louvers and grills to access.
3. Unless not required, drill a 2/3 hole to pass the connector cable to the back. (By the side of the control box)
 IMPORTANT!
Disconnect the power supply before you do anything on the installation!
Mounting the UVC LED Strip
- Determine the best location
•Clean with cloth for any dust/dirt
•Cleanout with an alcohol wipe
- **If needed, cut the strip into the length that best fits into the space. (Cut-to-length instruction is provided in this manual)
**
- **Pass the connector cable through the drilled hole
**
- Peel off the paper from the adhesive backing on the LED strip. Do this a few at a time and press it down firmly onto the clean surfaces.
IMPORTANT!
- Place the LED strip so the light will shine onto the blower wheel
- Cut the strip only following the instructions by the manufacturer
- DON’T AIM THE UV LIGHT INTO THE ROOM
Install the Light Shield Strip
UVC light shield strip is designed by the manufacturer and recommended to be installed with the UV LED strip. It is adhesive with a special material, to shield these lights which may be exposed INTO THE ROOM.
To install, simply peel off the paper from the adhesive side and stick firmly to the UV LED strip, with an angle of 90°, upright.
Electric Installation Preparation
Electrical Installation
- Remove the control box cover and connect the UV LED Driver power cable with the following:
Notice: UVC MINI KIT comes with a wide voltage 85-265VAC power supply.
2a. Connect the UV LED DRIVER cable connector to the strip directly, only if
the model is not equipped with either a wired or remote controller.
2b. If equipped with wired control, connect the UV LED DRIVER cable to one end of the wired control, and the other end to the UV LED Strip.
2c. If equipped with a wireless controller, connect the UV
LED DRIVER cable to one end of the RF receiver, and the other end to the UV
LED Strip.
Electrical Installation
3. Tuck the power cable into the line chase on the back of the unit or place it under the control box or other secure location.
4. Turn on the power supply and confirm that the UVC MINI KIT is working.
5. Apply the UV Warning Sticker to a proper location.
CAUTION
UV LED LIGHT
****Prolonged exposure to direct LED UV light may be harmful to eyes & skin.
This unit is equipped with an LED UV light disinfection system.
Disconnect power before servicing.
Indirect exposure (blue glow) is not harmful
Cut-to-length Instruction
Actual Length = air outlet vent length which determines the required actual “L”
Concepts to know
One UV modular cycle is 10cm, which includes UVC(1)+UVA(4)
Locate the best cutting point
-
Determine how long you need to cut.
10 cm is a LED Modular Cycle. -
Cut from the end without the cable!
Take off the bushing and prepare to cut.
- Cut from the fIrst cut point (two copper fin) if >=10cm.If < 10cm, cut at the second point.
- Seal the end with the bushing, tightly, make sure not to wrinkle the inner LED strip circuit.
IMPORTANT!
Factory Pre-Cut Services are not available at this time.
