Multistage air treatment that filters, disinfects and deodorizes the air for Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) improvement for HVAC systems up to 5 tons
Photronic™ uses a unique set of technologies that addresses each of the common causes of indoor air pollution.
-
Low cost / high efficiency / low pressure drop MERV 11 filtration to remove up to 99.97% of allergens and particulates as small as 3 microns.
-
Photocatalytic Air Purifier decomposes hundreds of odors caused by VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds), as well as neutralizing passing airborne bacteria and viruses—including flu viruses.
-
Germicidal UVC lamps kill airborne bacteria and viruses and continually keep the HVAC cooling coils clear of mold and other bio-growth, boosting system energy efficiency.
MERV 11 rated ProgressiveMedia™ filtration
The first stage in the system is a layered and pleated air filter that effectively captures and holds more dirt, allergens and other debris, than any filter in its class achieving 85% efficiency on particles as small as 3 microns. The continuous strand, hypo-allergenic premium filter is not only high performance, but is also highly practical and economical — no cleaning or other maintenance is required and each filter will last six months in a typical environment.
Photocatalytic VOC odor and airborne microorganism reduction
The ReFresh™ odor control module breaks up odor molecules from Volitile Organic Compounds or VOCs. Odors generated from organic sources, from pet odors to new carpet, construction to damp musty smells to food odors. 
The ReFresh™ module uses UV light energy to acitvate a grid coated with titainium dioxide that reacts with VOCs. Additionally, the photocatalytic (PCO) process, destroys passing airborne bacteria and viruses.
Germicidal UVC disinfects HVAC coils to Improve indoor air quality AND reduce HVAC energy and maintenance costs—at the the same time!
Photronic’s UV lights work to reduce health issues that arise from poor indoor air quality by preventing mold and other bio-growth on HVAC coils. At the same time bacteria and viruses in the airstream itself are destoyed as they pass though the UVC energy. The benefits are far reaching, from the possibility or preventing illness to very real environmental benefit of reducing HVAC energy use and maintenence costs:
- Energy use is reduced because the HVAC coils are continually cleaned of mold and other biological contamination with the 24-7 application of UV-C light. The gradual reduction of efficiency between conventional cleaning is eliminated. The energy saved can far exceeded energy used by the highly efficient UVMatrix system.
- HVAC Maintenance costs are reduced because Photronic continually cleans the coil reducing or eliminating the need for expensive and environmently-detrimental chemical HVAC coil cleaning techniques.
40% more disinfection power, less energy used
Ultravation’s T3 design UV lights enable them to emit 40% more UV-C, with no 
additional energy cost. Using economical standard UV lamps, Ultravation achieves the disinfection power of power-hungry “high-output” lamps. T3’s patented lamp system thermally optimizes each lamp—for more output than is otherwise possible without increased energy consumption.
Applications: Particulate, odor and germicidal air treatment for commercial buildings with central HVAC systems up to 5 tons. Ideal for medical clinics, doctor’s offices, schools, pet stores,
restaurants, professional offices and businesses.

Photronic systems are available and custom configurable for any HVAC system.
Typically the filtration and odor reduction chamber cabinet installed in the HVAC air return. Some units integrate UV lights in the cabinet for irradiating the coil area on the inlet side.
Photronic systems are available with remote UV Lights that allow placement of the UV lights in targeted areas — on the supply side of the coil when appropriate.
