INSTALLATION

THE ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANER RETRO-FITS INTO ANY ONE INCH FILTER OPENING. REMOVE THE
EXISTING ONE INCH AIR FILTER AND REPLACE IT WITH THE ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANER. NEXT,
CONNECT THE POWER CORD SUPPLIED TO A LOW VOLTAGE POWER SUPPLY. IN MOST CASES YOU
WILL HAVE A VARIETY OF CHOICES. SOME OF THE NEWER SYSTEMS HAVE A 24 VOLT TERMINAL FOR
HUMIDIFIERS AND OTHER LOW VOLTAGE SYSTEM ACCESSORIES.

THE ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANER CAN BE POWERED FROM THIS SOURCE. BE SURE TO IDENTIFY
THAT THE TERMINAL IS 24 VOLTS. A SECOND COMMON OPTION IS TO LOCATE THE LOW VOLTAGE 24
VOLT TRANSFORMER WITHIN THE SYSTEM. THIS TRANSFORMER IS IDEAL AND CAN BE EASILY USED
TO POWER THE ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANER. THE ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANER DRAWS A VERY SMALL
AMOUNT OF CURRENT AND WILL NOT OVERLOAD THE SYSTEM. THE AIR CLEANER CAN BE
CONNECTED PERMANENTLY TO THE 24 VOLT SIDE OF THE TRANSFORMER WITHOUT ANY NEED FOR
SWITCHING. THE ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANER REQUIRES LESS THAN TWO WATTS OF POWER TO
OPERATE.

NOTE:

USING AN AC VOLT METER BE SURE TO IDENTIFY THE CORRECT TERMINALS. THE
TERMINAL VOLTAGE NEEDS TO READ BETWEEN 24 AND 30 VOLTS AC. ALSO IDENTIFY WHICH
TERMINAL, IF ANY, IS CONNECTED TO THE EQUIPMENTS FRAME. THIS CAN BE DONE BY CONNECT­ING ONE OF THE LEADS OF THE METER TO THE EQUIPMENTS FRAME AND THE OTHER LEAD TO
EITHER TERMINAL. THE GROUNDED TERMINAL WILL NOT HAVE A VOLTAGE ON IT. CONNECT THE
POWER CORD AS SHOWN IN FIGURE #1.

THE SIDE OF THE POWER CORD THAT HAS A WHITE STRIPE ON IT IS CONNECTED TO THE
GROUNDED TERMINAL. ONCE YOU HAVE CONNECTED THE POWER CORD TO THE 24 VOLT POWER
SOURCE INSERT THE POWER CORD PLUG INTO THE ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANER POWERHEAD. AT
THIS POINT THE SMALL LED LIGHT ON THE POWERHEAD WILL TURN ON INDICATING FULL POWER.
IF THE SMALL LED LIGHT IS NOT ON THEN THE AIR CLEANER WILL NOT OPERATE PROPERLY.
RE-CHECK YOUR VOLTAGE TO BE SURE THE AIR CLEANER IS RECEIVING POWER.

24 VOLT POWER ONLY AC or DC

THE ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANER REQUIRES CONNECTION TO A 24 VOLT POWER SOURCE.

DO NOT CONNECT THE POWER SUPPLY CORD TO 110 VOLTS.

IN SOME NEWER SYSTEMS THE HUMIDIFIER TERMINAL MAY BE 24 VOLTS.

THIS IS SUITABLE FOR CONNECTION. BE SURE TO CHECK WITH A VOLTMETER.

THE ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANER MAY SNAP OR ARC ELECTRICALLY UPON INITIAL INSTALLATION.
THIS IS DUE TO A BUILD UP OF HUMIDITY WITHIN THE AIR CLEANER. THIS CONDITION WILL SUBSIDE
AFTER SEVERAL HOURS OF OPERATION. THE ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANER HAS BEEN ENGINEERED
TO OPERATE QUIETLY. THERE MAY BE AN OCCASIONAL SNAP OR ARC. THIS IS NORMAL AND WILL
NOT INTERFERE WITH THE EFFECTIVE OPERATION OF THE AIR CLEANER.

MAINTENANCE

THE ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANER MEDIA PADS REQUIRE PERIODIC REPLACEMENT

IN ORDER TO ENSURE EFFECTIVE PERFORMANCE FROM THE ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANER,
PERIODIC REPLACEMENT OF THE SPECIAL MEDIA PADS INSIDE IS REQUIRED. THE MEDIA PADS ARE
A UNIQUE, MULTI-LAYERED, MATERIAL. THE REPLACEMENT MEDIA PADS ARE AVAILABLE IN A
CONVENIENT, ONE YEAR PACK.

THE ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANER WILL NOT OPERATE PROPERLY IF ALTERNATIVE MATERIALS ARE
USED. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE PADS BE REPLACED EVERY THREE TO FOUR MONTHS.

TO REPLACE THE MEDIA PADS DISCONNECT THE POWERCORD AT THE TOP OF THE AIR
CLEANER AND REMOVE THE ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANER FROM THE FILTER RACK. PULL THE
LATCHES UP ON THE SIDE OF THE AIR CLEANER. OPEN THE AIR CLEANER ON A FLAT SURFACE AND
DISCARD THE TWO DIRTY MEDIA PADS. THEN TAKE TWO NEW MEDIA PADS FROM THE MEDIA PACK
AND INSTALL THEM. CLOSE THE AIR CLEANER, RE-SEAT THE LATCHES AND RE-INSTALL. BE SURE TO
RECONNECT THE POWERCORD.

STRIPED WIRE TO THE
GROUNDED TERMINAL

THE ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANER HAS BEEN DESIGNED TO OPERATE WITH CONSTANT POWER OR
IN SERIES WITH THE SYSTEMS FAN. BOTH METHODS WILL PERMIT RELIABLE, LONG TERM,
PERFORMANCE.
