IMPORTANT!
Systems with high 24 VAC loads may require the installation of a separate 24 VAC
transformer to power the UV light.
Always use a separate 24 VAC transformer with “communicating” air systems and all
Carbon RT Dual models.

5 Lamp Replacement B TUVL-111 (1 Year)

The germicidal UV lamp in Carbon RT needs to be
replaced periodically. TUVL-111 lamps should be
replaced every year. TUVL-211 should be replaced
every 2 years. Note: UV lamps will continue to
emit visible light but lose germicidal effectiveness C TUVL-211 (2 Year)
over time. You can upgrade to a 2 year lamp with
your existing Carbon RT Power Unit.

CAUTION!
UV lamps contain small amounts of mercury - dispose of lamps in accordance with
local environmental regulations. For more information visit www.lamprecycle.org
