Eliminator SE Series

Section I – Design

1. Introduction

The Trion Eliminator SE400E & SE800E are commercial air purifiers that have been specifically designed to remove airborne pollutants - including tobacco smoke, dust, pollen and mold spores - in rooms and areas where people work or relax. They are designed to be mounted onto a solid ceiling, semi-recessed for into a suspended ceiling, or wall mounted (SE400E only). Where appropriate they can also draw in additional fresh air.

Their features make them the ideal air purifier for installations into areas such as offices, conference rooms, restaurants, designated smoking areas, institutions and waiting rooms or any other place where people gather.

HOW THEY WORK

The Trion SE400E & SE800E utilize the principle of Electrostatic Precipitation. Air is drawn into the intake, through the metal prefilter, which traps lint and large dust particles. The remaining particles, some as small as 0.01 microns*, pass into a strong electrical field (ionizing section) where the particles receive an electrical charge. The charged particles pass onto a series of equally spaced parallel plates (collector section). Each alternate plate is charged with the same polarity as the particles, which are repelled, while the interleaving plates are grounded, and therefore attract and collect the particles.

* The diameter of a human hair is about 100 micron!

2. The Filter System

There are two filters in your air cleaner - THE PRE-FILTER: This is the mechanical filter that lies behind the inlet grill. It is

designed to remove large particles and can be washed many times before replacement.

THE ELECTROSTATIC FILTER: This is the deep aluminum assembly (Collector Cell) located immediately behind the pre-filter and is the heart of your air cleaner. It uses an electrostatic charge to remove particles so small that it would take a pile of many millions to cover a pinhead. When dirty it can be washed and reused indefinitely.

FILTER REMOVAL

TRION SE400E

Turn the control switch off before removing cell. Press the two cell access latches and the hinged door will swing down. Remove pre-filter by turning pre-filter clip 90 degrees (fig 2). While supporting the weight of the Collector Cell, loosen the filter retaining screw (fig 3). The filter retaining plate will now open allowing the filter to be removed (fig 4). To reinstall the filter, simply reverse above procedure.

TRION SE800E

The two hinged access doors are secured with retaining screws (fig 3). Release screws to allow the doors to swing down. Remove the Collector Cells as described above.

INSTALLATION LOCATION

The most effective location for the air purifier is the center of the area to be cleaned because the dirty air is pulled into the center of the unit and discharged equally out the four sides. If more than one unit is required, space them evenly over the area to be cleaned.
