Abstract

See full text

A fluid removal system includes an operative sub-system, such as an ultraviolet (UV) light sanitizing system, that is configured to operate according to an operative cycle, such as a sanitizing cycle, and is configured to output an activation signal during the operative cycle. An actuator is operatively coupled to the operative sub-system and moveably connected to a fluid removal conduit. The fluid removal conduit is closed when the actuator is in a closed position, and opened when the actuator is in an open position. The actuator moves into the open position in response to the operative sub-system outputting the activation signal. Fluid, such as ozone, within a confined space is drawn into the fluid removal conduit when the actuator is in the open position and exhausted through an exhaust port.
