When UV lights are factory provided,
polymer materials that are
susceptible to deterioration by the
UV-C light will be substituted or
shielded from direct exposure to the
light.

operating and maintenance
personnel, electrical interlocks that
automatically disconnect power to
the lights are provided at all unit
entry points to equipment where
lights are located.

WARNING
Equipment Damage From
Ultraviolet (UV) Lights!
Ultraviolet (UV) Lights!
Trane does not recommend field
installation of ultraviolet lights in its
air handling equipment for the
intended purpose of improving
indoor air quality. High intensity C-
band ultraviolet light is known to
severely damage polymer (plastic)
materials and poses a personal
safety risk to anyone exposed to the
light without proper personal
protective equipment (can cause
damage to eyes and skin). Polymer
materials commonly found in HVAC
equipment that may be susceptible
include insulation on electrical
wiring, fan belts, thermal insulation,
various fasteners and bushings.
Degradation of these materials can
result in serious damage to the
equipment.
