* Amp values listed by fixture width are for one row only. To calculate total Amps per rack system, multiply the Amp value by the number of fixture rows and add
amperage for one electrical enclosure. For example: Total amps for a 120 V system with three 12-foot rows = (3 × 3.061) + 0.21 = 9.393 Amps.

Notes:
• Model UV-I-1-18 covers approximately 792 in2 (5.5 ft2, 0.5 m2) of coil area.
• Use this table as a guideline only. The most important requirement for an effective UV
Germicidal System installation is complete coil and drain pan illumination. Install fixtures
as required to fully illuminate the coil and drain pan.
• The above guidelines are based on the following assumptions:
– UV lamps installed 3 to 12 inches (76 mm to 305 mm) from coil
– Coil thickness in the range of 2 to 4 inches (51 mm to 102 mm)
• As distance from the coil increases, light intensity illuminating the coil decreases,
requiring more time for organisms to be killed by UV light.
