Catchmaster Vector Plasma Wall-Mounted UV Fly Light Trap, 3,100 sq. ft., Dual 36W Lamps

The Catchmaster Vector Plasma Grilled Wall-Mounted UV Fly Light Trap is a heavy-duty, low-noise UV glue-board system designed to attract and silently capture flying insects across up to 3,100 sq. ft.

Built for busy food-service and high-traffic indoor spaces, this Vector Plasma trap combines powerful UV lamps, a durable aluminum housing, and replaceable glue boards to provide continuous, unobtrusive insect control. It uses two shatterproof 36W Philips bulbs and an airplane-grade casing to resist wear in commercial kitchens, dining rooms, and fresh or dry food storage areas. The unit keeps trapped insects concealed behind a cover and requires only periodic glue board and bulb replacement for ongoing performance.

How does the Vector Plasma trap attract and capture flies effectively?

The trap uses ultraviolet light as a long-range attractant; flies and gnats orient toward the UV output and then make contact with a disposable glue board positioned behind a protective grill. There is no zapping or chemical baiting—capture is silent and contained. Replace glue boards monthly or when visibly full to maintain capture efficiency.

• Two shatterproof 36W Philips PL-L lamps provide strong UV output
• Direct UV illumination draws insects from surrounding zones up to 3,100 sq. ft.
• Replaceable adhesive boards eliminate the need for toxic sprays or zapping sounds
• Concealed catch area keeps trapped insects out of sight

Where should I mount the unit for the best results?

For optimal performance, install the Vector Plasma about 6 feet above the floor and away from competing light sources, open doors, and windows. Positioning the unit in a darker zone that insects will pass through—such as near food prep corridors, service doors, or ceilings above buffet lines—maximizes attraction. Keep clear access for periodic maintenance and glue-board replacement.

• Mount indoors at approximately 6 ft height for broad coverage
• Avoid direct exposure to natural light and nearby windows or doors
• Place near insect entry routes or food-prep traffic lanes for higher catch rates
• Leave space for servicing bulbs and changing glue boards

What maintenance does the Vector Plasma require and how often?

Maintenance is straightforward: swap the adhesive board monthly (or sooner if it fills), and change the UV bulbs yearly or when light output declines. The aluminum casing wipes clean and the shatterproof lamps reduce breakage risk during handling. Using only recommended replacement glue boards and bulbs helps preserve warranty and performance.

• Replace glue boards monthly or as needed based on capture level
• Change UV lamps annually or when brightness diminishes
• Wipe exterior with a damp cloth; avoid harsh solvents on labels
• Follow local waste guidelines when disposing used glue boards

Is this safe to use around food storage and dining areas?

The Vector Plasma is designed with food-service environments in mind: the glue board containment and covered catch area keep trapped insects out of view and away from food. Because it uses adhesive capture instead of pesticides, it avoids airborne residues and the noise of zappers. Still, place the unit according to local health codes and away from direct food exposure surfaces.

• Adhesive capture prevents airborne chemical residues
• Concealed trap area reduces visual and contamination concerns
• Fits kitchens, dining rooms, food halls, and storage areas when mounted appropriately
• Complies with Integrated Pest Management practices when used responsibly

Who is this for? The Catchmaster Vector Plasma is aimed at restaurants, cafeterias, commercial kitchens, food storage facilities, and larger residential properties that need a durable, quiet, and professional-grade UV fly trap. If you require broad coverage, discrete insect management, and an easy-to-service system that fits into an integrated pest-management plan, this unit is suited to those needs.
