IMPORTANT

Read and save these instructions.

Always unplug the CPA QA-20 Air Purification System when it is not in operation, while
the Filters or UVC germicidal lamps are being changed, and when cleaning. After
servicing this equipment both the front and top grill assemblies must be reinstalled in
exactly the same manner as prior to removal. If either grill is not reinstalled properly the

Catalytic Pure Air Portable Air Purification System will not turn on. This is a built in
safety feature.

Before using the Catalytic Pure Air Portable Air Purification System extend the power

cord and inspect for any signs of damage. Do not use the product if the power cord has

been damaged.

work properly on an uneven surface. To reduce the risk of electric shock and injury, do

not place in a window. Always place the air purifier at least 12 inches (30.48

centimeters) away from heat sources such as stoves, radiators, or heaters.

CATALYTIC
SYSTEM FEATURES

Thank you for purchasing a Catalytic Pure Air Portable Air Purification System.

The CPA QA-20 Portable Air Purification System incorporates unique air-purification
technologies not found in any other air purifier. The PCO-Cell patented catalytic
technology significantly reduces the presence of irritable and toxic airborne gaseous

contaminants produced by common household cleaners and materials.

• A quiet, energy-efficient backward-curved impeller that moves 265 cubic feet of air
per minute.

• An advanced electronic control system that monitors air quality, air flow and volume,
filter and UVC germicidal lamp replacement time.

• A five-stage filtration system with gas-absorption media that absorbs toxic gas,
organic hydrocarbons, exhaust fumes, formaldehyde, cleaning chemicals, low level
ozone, unpleasant odors, and paint solvents.

. A hospital-grade three-stage HEPA filter removes allergens such as pollen, mold

fungal spores, tobacco smoke, insecticide dust, dust mites, and particles down to 0.3

microns (0.00003 inch).

• The PCO-Cell photo-catalytic oxidation chamber reduces the spread of airborne
disease in the home environment. The powerful UVC germicidal light has 150 times
the ultraviolet intensity of bright sunlight which kills viruses and bacteria on contact.

• Oxygen in the air, combined with photo-catalytic technology and UVC germicidal

ultraviolet light, oxidizes airborne impurities too small to be filtered-out.
The PCO-Cell photo-catalytic oxidation technology which has received six patents from

the USPTO, will keep the air clean and fresh in exactly the same way sunlight and

oxygen clean the air we breathe in the outdoor environment.
