Intended Use
The device is intended to be used for the tanning of human skin.
Device Story
Sunfire series tanning beds (32, 24, 16, 12R) utilize fluorescent UV lamps to tan human skin. Devices consist of metal structures with lamps arranged to ensure equidistant exposure; users lie on bench sections or position canopy units over their bodies. Operation is controlled by electronic or electromechanical timers, with a mandatory backup timer to prevent overexposure beyond recommended limits. A stop switch allows immediate lamp deactivation. Devices are intended for home use; control systems are shipped disabled, requiring completion of a mandatory training program before activation. Training covers exposure schedules, skin type assessment, mandatory protective eyewear, and contraindications. Benefits include controlled UV exposure for tanning; risks include skin aging and cancer from overexposure.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data. Performance evaluations included UV irradiance testing to confirm compliance with 21 CFR 1040.20 and FDA guidance on maximum timer intervals. Additional testing included timer software validation/verification, biocompatibility of contact surfaces, electromagnetic compatibility, electrical safety, and temperature monitoring of contact surfaces and internal air.
Technological Characteristics
Metal structure with 71-inch fluorescent UV lamps. Electronic ballasts. User-settable electronic or electromechanical timers with mandatory backup timer. Connectivity: Standalone. Sterilization: Not applicable. Software: Timer control logic.
Indications for Use
Indicated for tanning of human skin. Contraindicated for individuals under 18 years old, individuals with skin lesions or open wounds, and individuals with skin cancer or a family history of skin cancer.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A sunlamp product is any device designed to incorporate one or more ultraviolet (UV) lamps intended for irradiation of any part of the living human body, by UV radiation with wavelengths in air between 200 and 400 nanometers, to induce skin tanning. This definition includes tanning beds and tanning booths. A UV lamp intended for use in sunlamp products is any lamp that produces UV radiation in the wavelength interval of 200 to 400 nanometers in air.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The special controls for sunlamp products and UV lamps intended for use in sunlamp products are:(1) Conduct performance testing that demonstrates the following:
(i) Device meets appropriate output performance specifications such as wavelengths, energy density, and lamp life; and

| Intended Use: | The device is intended to be used for the tanning of human skin. | |
| Device Description: | The Sunfire series of tanning beds is available in four configurations;<br>a 32 lamp configuration that contains sixteen 71 inch fluorescent UV lamps in its canopy section<br>and sixteen 71 inch fluorescent UV lamps in its bench sections,<br>a 24 lamp configuration that contains twelve 71 inch fluorescent UV lamps in its canopy section<br>and twelve 71 inch fluorescent UV lamps in its bench sections,<br>a 16 lamp configuration that contains eight 71 inch fluorescent UV lamps in its canopy section<br>and eight 71 inch fluorescent UV lamps in its bench sections,<br>and a 12 lamp canopy only configuration that contains twelve 71 inch fluorescent UV lamps.<br>Each configuration consists of a metal structure with lamps horizontally arranged in a manner so<br>that they are equidistant from the tanner. The user of the Sunfire 32, 24 and 16 units lies down on<br>the bench section and pulls down the canopy section, which is counterweighted by gas springs s<br>that it can pivot and remain at any angle. The user of the Sunfire 12R lies down on a cot or bed<br>and positions the Sunfire 12R canopy over their body. The lamps are powered by electronic type<br>ballasts. The duration of exposure is controlled by a user settable electronic timer or alternatively<br>an electromechanical timer. The session time can be set to any value called for on the<br>recommended exposure schedule. Session time cannot be set longer than the maximum<br>recommended exposure schedule time. A backup timer is provided that ensures the bed's lamps<br>cannot operate longer than the maximum recommended exposure. A stop switch or knob is<br>provided to immediately turn off the UV lamps if needed | |

| Predicate Devices | Sunfire Industries Inc. Models Sunfire 32, Sunfire 24, Sunfire 16 and Sunfire 12R May 6, 2014<br>Per Federal Register Vol. 79, No 105 Monday, June 2, 2014 Page 31212 Section IV Premarket<br>Notification. (Docket No. FDA-2013-N-0461) "any 510(k)-exempt sunlamp product or UV lamp<br>intended for sale on or before September 2, 2014, can serve as predicates for substantial<br>equivalence purposes."<br>Therefore, the Sunfire 32, 24,16 and 12R series will serve as their own predicates as they were<br>on the market prior to September 2, 2014. The Initial Product Report for the Sunfire 24 and 16<br>was given accession reference number 1410322-000. The Product Report for the Sunfire 32 and<br>12R was given accession reference number 1410322-001. | |
| Comparison of<br>Characteristics | The Sunfire 32, Sunfire 24, Sunfire 16 and Sunfire 12R are identical to the units described in the<br>submitted product reports, (FDA accession# 1410322-000 and 1410322-001) except that; | |
| | the mechanical timer is now supplemented by a separate back-up timer to guard against failure of<br>the main timer, | |
| | the alternate electronic timer has a built-in back-up timer, | |
| | UV Irradiance testing was performed on all lamp configurations to establish the exposure<br>schedule per FDA Guidelines. (refer to performance testing below) The results of these tests<br>provide reasonable assurance that the proposed device has been designed and tested to assure<br>conformance to the requirements for its intended use and performs comparably to the existing<br>device. The Sunfire 32, Sunfire 24, Sunfire 16 and Sunfire 12R are considered substantially<br>equivalent to the same model name predicate devices.<br>Labeling, Device labeling and user manual contraindications and warnings for both configurations<br>are in compliance with the requirements of 21 CFR 1040.20 and have been updated to comply<br>with the recently updated regulation 21 CFR 878.4635. See Proposed Labeling section of this<br>submittal. | |
| | Performance<br>Testing (non-<br>Clinical) | Results of the UV irradiance testing performed on all lamp<br>configurations confirm that the dosage is within allowable limits set<br>by the FDA performance standard 21 CFR 1040.20 and FDA Guidance letter dated August 21st<br>1986 titled Policy on Maximum Timer Interval and Exposure Schedule for Sunlamp Products. |
| The following additional factors were tested and/or evaluated. | | |
| - Timer Software Validation and Verification<br>- Biocompatibility of surfaces in contact with the tanner.<br>- Electromagnetic compatibility and electrical safety.<br>- Temperature of contact surfaces and temperature of air within tanning booth during<br>operation. | | |

. New Bern, NC 28562 4905 Highway 70 East Fax # (888) 253-0994 The results from these performance evaluations demonstrate the Sunfire 24, Sunfire 16 and Sunfire 12R tanning beds meet the acceptance criteria defined in the performance standard and perform comparably to the predicate device. User Training Sunfire will establish a training program to ensure that each purchaser of equipment intended for home use comprehends the information presented on the device's labeling. Home use tanning equipment sold by Sunfire will ship with its control system disabled, preventing the equipment's use until a training program is completed. The training program will cover the following topics at a minimum. 1. Use of the exposure schedule to correctly define skin type and choose the appropriate session time to avoid overexposure (sunburn). Repeated exposure and especially overexposure can lead to skin aging and skin cancer. 2. 3. Importance of wearing approved eyewear to avoid injury to eyes. Contraindicated for people under 18 years old. 4. 5. Contraindicated when skin lesions or open wounds are present. Should not be used by those with skin cancer or have a family history of skin cancer. 6. 7. Allow time between tanning sessions for a tan to develop before tanning aqain.
