WARNING: UV LIGHT HAZARD. 
Harmful to skin and eyes. Can cause 
temporary or permanent loss of vi-
sion. Never look at the lamp while 
illuminated. To prevent exposure to 
ultraviolet  light,  be  sure  the  power  is 
disconnected until installation is com-
pleted and before servicing.  
UV lamps contain Hg (Mercury). 
High or long term exposure to Hg can lead to serious health risks. UV lamps should 
be  disposed  of  according  to  disposal  laws  in  your  area.  UV  lamps  should  never 
be disposed via standard waste receptacles. They often break when thrown into a 
dumpster, trash can or compactor, or when they end up in a landfill or incinerator. 
Learn  more  about  proper  disposal  methods  and  find  disposal  centers  at  www.
earth911.org.

							Status Indicator Lights
The  nano  Induct  contains  a  smart  ballast  which  provides  a  warm-up  period  then 
checks for correct operation and continuously watches for any fault condition.  
Lamp startup is a controlled process.  First the lamp is preheated using the internal 
filaments for a preheat duration of less than 4 seconds.  Once the preheating pe-
riod is over the bulb should be lit.  After 8 seconds the bulb is continuously checked 
for correct operation.  Should a fault be detected the 
Red LED will start flashing.  The number of repeat-
ing blinks will indicate the type of fault.
This  ballast  continuously  monitors  the  temperature 
and frequency of the power converter circuit.  Al-
most all faults will result in either an over tempera-
ture condition or the power converter not operating 
at the nominal design frequency.  If a fault condition 
is detected the Red LED will flash.  The number of 
repeating flashes indicates the type of fault.
“Lamp Status” Indicator
Green 
Unit has power, ballast and UVC lamp are
operating correctly.
Red 
The Red LED indicates a fault condition.  Details of 
the fault can be detected by counting the number of 
repeating flashes.  2 flashes is an over temperature 
condition, 3 flashes is a UVC lamp fault or open cir-
cuit, more than 3 flashes is an internal circuit fault.
“Lamp Replacement” Indicator
Blue Solid 
The Blue LED is on during normal operation.The UVC lamp is within its two year 
life span. No action is needed.
Blue Flashing 
The UVC lamp is outside its two year life span, output has decreased and it should 
be replaced.

							Power Adapter
The nano Induct is powered using a 26 VDC power adapter with a rated input volt-
age of 100 - 240 VAC.  The adapter connects to a 110 or 230 VAC 3 amp power 
cord. For your safety and to ensure proper function of your nano Induct we recom-
mend that ONLY the power adapter included with the original purchase be used.
Placement and Installation
Placement Suggestions
The nano Induct units are designed to be installed within the duct of an HVAC sys-
tem. We recommend they be mounted on the supply side plenum. 
• We  recommend  you  leave  the  Rotational  UV  Shields  in  the  closed  position. 
The shields should only be opened for specialized applications.
• The  nano  Induct  should  not  be  installed  in  extremely  close proximity to heat 
strips  or  other  heat  sources.  Polymers  can  begin  to  soften  at  approximately 
250˚F. 
• Ensure you install the correct model for the job.
• NIND6 - up to 3 tons (1200 CFM)
• NIND9 - 4 to 6 tons (1600 - 2400 CFM)
• NIND14 - 7+ tons (2800+ CFM)
• Multiple units may be needed in larger air handlers or areas of higher    
 contamination.

							Preparing to Install
The nano Induct was designed to be simple and effective. Remove the unit, power 
adapter, power cord, and mounting hardware from the box. We recommend keep-
ing the box and all packaging material for shipping the unit should it ever need to 
be returned for repairs.
Installation Instructions 
Installation  and  servicing  of  air-conditioning  equipment  can  be  hazardous  due  to 
system  pressure  and  electrical  components.  Only  trained  and  qualified  service 
personnel should install, repair, or service air-conditioning equipment. Air Oasis 
and  its  affiliates  are  not  responsible  for  any  damage  to  the  HVAC  system,  nano 
Induct or injury to yourself or others if you elect to install the device without utilizing 
qualified technicians. 
Use the suggestions on page 3 to determine the optimal mounting location(s).
To complete the installation process we recommend the following tools:
• Power Drill
• 3 3/4” inch hole saw
• 1/4 inch hex head screw driver
1. Cut a 3 3/4” hole in the duct where the device will be mounted. Center the hole 
ensuring there will be at least a 5” diameter of duct around the outside of the hole.
If  mounting  on  a  horizontal  fiberglass  duct  board  we  recommend  inserting  the 
nano Induct from the top side of the plenum to allow gravity to help secure the unit 
in place.

2. We recommend leaving the UV Shields closed. 
Should you choose to open the shields, place 
one hand on the Distal Cap and the other on the 
Outer  UV  Shield.  Rotate  the  Distal  Cap  clock-
wise while rotating the Shield counter clockwise 
until the desired position is reached. Rotation will 
require firm pressure.

							3.  Clean  a  one  inch  area  around  the  hole  where  the  NIND  will  be  mounted.  Re-
move the wax paper from the gasket.  Insert the NIND into the 3 3/4” \
hole, aligning 
the cross hairs parallel to the duct. Press firmly on the Retainer Ring to adhere the 
gasket to the duct.
4. If installing on fiberglass duct board place aluminum tape ring over the Retainer 
Ring to help secure the unit. 
5. Firmly press the Ballast Assembly onto the four pins protruding from the AHPCO 
Cell.  The  Ballast Assembly  should  be  orientated  with  the  “air  flow”  label  running 
parallel with the length of the duct to ensure the four pins are in line with the\
 Four 
Pin Connector. Optional mounting configurations, such as opening the UV shields, 
may vary the orientation of the “air flow” label. It’s only intended to serve as a gen-
eral guideline.
