R1700
INSTALLATION
MANUAL
Location
The preferred installation location for the purifier is in the return duct as the air will be treated before the filter and HVAC coil. If it is not possible to
install in the return duct, it may be installed in the supply duct. The black Control Panel section of the purifier is installed on the outside of the duct.
Make sure site can be supplied with the necessary power requirements. The R1700 has a power consumption of 27 watts (730 ma) and require a
110/220V, 50-60 Hz power source. Insure that there is adequate clearance for service. If a humidifier is present, the air purifier should be installed in
the air stream before the humidifier and the humidifier must be protected from UV rays.
NOTE: The Ballast has been factory set at 110 Volts. If the power source is 220 Volt, the switch on the ballast must be changed to the 220 volt
position.The operating temperature range is 40 to 150 F. Operating the models outside this range will result in decreased performance.
NOTE: The Purifiers are NOT waterproof. If installing outdoors, the purifiers must be installed in a watertight enclosure.
The 6” square aluminum tube can be rotated in 90 degree increments in order for the backplate and Control Panel front cover to face upward
(vertical). To rotate the aluminum tube, open the front cover of the purifier. Loosen the hex head nut. Grasp the aluminum tube and rotate it in 90
degree segments. The tube will lock at each 90 degree segment. When the correct rotation is found, tighten the hex nut.
R1700X INSTALLATION
1. Turn off all power to HVAC equipment.
2. Remove the R1700X from its packaging.
3. Remove the lamp from the packaging material. The lamp is fragile, use extreme care. Do not touch the glass on the lamp with bare hands.
Use the enclosed gloves when handling the lamp. Handle lamp from the ceramic ends.
4. Position lamp inside the aluminum tube. Route 4-pronged end of lamp through clamp. Clamp is tightened by moving lever perpendicular to
the clamp.
5. Connect the female plug to the lamp. The plug fits in one direction only. If the plug will not connect to the lamp, turn the plug 90 degrees.
6. The 6” square aluminum tube can be rotated in 90 degree increments in order for the backplate and Control Panel front cover to face
upward. To rotate the aluminum tube, open the front cover of the purifier. Loosen the hex head nut. Grasp the aluminum tube and rotate it in
90 degree segments. The tube will lock at each 90 degree segment. When the correct rotation is found, tighten the hex nut.
7. Install the turbulator (square aluminum cap) on the end of the aluminum tube facing the air flow. Fasten with screws provided.
8. Ultra-violet light may damage certain plastics and exposed non-UVC protected wires. If any plastic or wires are within the light exposure
area, wrap exposed plastic and wiring with aluminum tape or metal conduit.
Return or Supply Air Plenum Installation Perform the following to install the R1700X:
1. Cut a 6.5in by 8-in. rectangular hole in the ductwork at the installation location.
2. Place the R1700X in ductwork in correct position. Mark the 6 mounting holes on the ductwork. Remove the R1700X.
3. Drill 6 mounting holes marked in Step 2 (size for no. 8 sheet metal screws).
4. Place the R1700X inside hole in ductwork. Mount to ductwork with 6 no. 8 sheet metal screws provided.
Note: The Ballast for ALL of the models has been factory set at 110 Volts. If the power source is 220 Volt, the switch on the ballast must be
changed to the 220 volt position.
5. R1700, R4000XB. Connect the 110 or 220 volt line as per code to the HVAC EAC terminals or to the blower control. A current sensing
relay or pressure switch may be necessary. Check with the equipment manufacturer.
6. Open cover of the purifier. Secure the line conduit through the purifier knock-out provided next to the power switch with the appropriate
cable connector
Use only specified replacement Lamps with you Purifier. Use
of an incorrect Lamp can result in damage to the Purifier

Trouble-Shooting the UV Lamp
Checking the UV Lamp
Sanuvox Ultraviolet Lamps are built to the highest standards. If the
Green LED (Ballast) is lit and the Blue LED (Lamp) is not lit, it is
important to check the Lamp to insure that it is not a defect in the Lamp
Sensing Circuit in the Ballast. This is done by using an ohmmeter to
check the two filaments on the Lamp.
Disconnect the socket from the Lamp.
Placing the probe of the ohmmeter to one of the four pins on the end of
the Lamp, touch the other probe of the ohmmeter to each of the other
pins until you find the matching pin. The ohmmeter will read
approximately 3 ohms (almost a short). This indicates that the filament
is good. Check the other two pins. If both sets of filaments test OK, the
Lamp is functioning. If one or both sets of filaments read an open
circuit (infinity) on resistance, the Lamp is defective.
OPERATION OF THE R1700:
The R1700X has an on-off switch and a circuit breaker located at
the bottom of the front cover. To operate, press the switch to the
“on” position. The switch has a light to indicate that there is power.
If there is no indicator light on, check the electrical outlet for
power, and check the Purifier circuit breaker. Start the HVAC fan.
The 2 LED lights will come on.
LED Indicators
The Blue LED indicates that the UV Lamp is on; the Green LED
indicates that the Ballast is functioning. If the Ballast (Green) LED
is on, and the Lamp (Blue) LED is off, the UV lamp is not
functioning. If both LED lights are off, the ballast is not
functioning.
