Description

MAC500s produces UV-C light under controlled conditions. Different UV-C wavelengths have different properties. The MAC500s uses two wavelengths. One is a powerful sterilizer when it is in direct contact with pathogens and the other wavelength uses the available oxygen (O2) to naturally produce a low level of ozone (O3). The low level of ozone recreates the fresh air from outside in nature inside your home or office. The ozone dynamically attacks dangerous airborne pathogens in the air you breathe and can deactivate airborne virus.

This method is called photolytic oxidation and JIMCO A/S has won EU environmental Award for Developing a Cleaner Technology.

The purpose with the MAC500s is to purify the air you breathe.

Intended use

The MAC500s is intended to be used 24 hours a day. The recommended room size is 60 m³ (24 m² with a ceiling height of 2.5 m). The unit should not be operated while situated on the floor but should be placed as high as possible for maximum efficiency.

The unit must not be operated without cover.

When more units are placed in a room they must be placed as far from each other as possible to get an even distribution of the area they cover.

Function

Photolytic oxidation makes a cold incineration with airborne pathogens and organic particles such as fungal spores, virus, bacteria, yeast, ethylene gasses, nicotine etc. The process is environmentally friendly and the cold incineration will reduce the airborne pathogens and organic particles significantly.

The MAC500s reduce ethylen gasses, bacteria and fungal spores, which will extend the shelf life of food, fruit and vegetables.

The MAC500s will effectively reduce odor from rooms deposited in walls, carpets, textiles, furnitures etc.

Technical Data MAC500s

Lifetime of the lamps

The lifetime of the JIMCO special lamp is around 8,000 operating hours. After the expiry of 8,000 operating hours, the efficiency of the lamp will be reduced, which means if the air is not purified as usual then the lamp should be replaced.

8,000 operating hours equals approximately a year of operation. If the effect of the device drops before the end of 8,000 operating hours, you should check if the JIMCO Special lamp is dirty with e.g. dust particles. If this is the case, follow the cleaning instructions.

Maintenance

To maintain the optimal performance of the MAC500s, JIMCO recommends for regular use to clean the lamp and fan about every 3 months. When used in heavily soiled/dusty rooms, this should be done more often.

Cleaning the appliance:

• Turn off the appliance and then unplug it from the socket.
• Clean the outside of the appliance with a damp cloth, use a little detergent if necessary (Follow the instructions of the detergent).
• Clean the lamp and fan with a clean and soft cloth, use a little ethyl alcohol if necessary.
• Note the date of cleaning.

Operation Instructions

• Switch the appliance on and off with the On / Off switch [1]. The red lamp lights to indicate that the appliance is now switched on.
• When there are 500 operating hours left, the On / Off lamp will start to flash.
• When the appliance has been in operation for more than 8000 hours, all 3 red lights start flashing and an acoustic signal is heard around every 30 minutes. The lamp must now be replaced.
• When the lamp is replaced, Reset the Timer by holding down the Reset button [2] for more than 5 seconds. 5 quick beeps are heard, and the unit is ready for use again.

Warranty Regulations

On the MAC500s, JIMCO A/S provides a 24-month warranty. The guarantee period is 12 months. The warranty is calculated from the date of sale from your JIMCO dealer. To provide this, a receipt must be kept. Within the stated warranty period, JIMCO A/S will cover, without charge, every defect that is subject to material or manufacturing defects and, at your option, provides warranty repair or replacement of the MAC500s.

Prerequisite for the guarantee benefit is that the appliance is used according to its purpose and in accordance with the operating instructions. Excluded from the warranty are damages caused by improper use, wear or interference on the part of the owner or third parties. The warranty does not cover consumables – e.g. the lamp – or wear objects like the fan, which only negatively affect the value or usefulness of the MAC500s.
