. However, someeceip eno ni deppihs era stinu
units, because of size or special jobsite conditions, may be
shipped in multiple sections. Follow the instructions that are
provided with the unit to join sections back together. If the
unit includes media bed odor control, the KOR48/carbon odor
control media is packaged separately. Verify against the shipping documents that you have received all items and note
any shipping damage, obvious or hidden, to your carrier and
on your Bill of Lading. If damage is found, immediately file a
claim with the transport company . All units are thoroughly
inspected and fully operation tested at the factory prior to
shipment.
Verify that the electrical and air flow ratings on the unit name
plate agrees with jobsite requirements. If a contradiction arises
notify the factory prior to proceeding with installation.
SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Installing and servicing the ClearAirTM unit can be hazardous
due to the presence of electrical components. Only trained
and qualified service personnel should install or service this
equipment.
Untrained personnel can perform basic maintenance, such
as cleaning and replacing filters. All other operations should
be performed by trained service personnel. When installing or
servicing, observe precautions in literature and on tags and
labels attached to unit.
Follow all safety codes. Wear safety glasses and work gloves.
Use quenching cloth for brazing operations. Have fire extinguisher available. Read these instructions thoroughly.
INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
1. The services of qualified contractors are essential for safe
and proper installation of this equipment.
2. The air volumes and external static pressures that are
listed on the unit are for the middle of the operating range of
the filters. The initial air volume should be at least 10% higher
than the listed CFM . As the filters load up the air volume will
drop. This is inherent to this type of unit. If the unit is set up
at or below the design CFM, as the filters load up, the kitchen
hood may experience smoke loss problems. Please consult
the factory if you have questions.
3. The unit is designed for installation on a level surface.
4. When installed in an enclosed space a fire rated enclosure may be required for the unit and associated duct work.
Consult the Authority Having Jurisdiction.
5. Consult the A uthority Having Jurisdiction regarding requirements covering the point of termination of the exhaust
outlet of this unit. Minimum distances must usually be
maintained between the exhaust outlet and any outside air
intakes and/or adjacent structures or property lines.
6. Do not apply power to the unit until all electrical connections have been made and a pre-start-up preliminary
inspection has been completed.
7. Allow a minimum of 36 inches clearance in front of the
filter access door and electrical compartment door for service and routine maintenance.

ODOR CONTROL SECTION – MEDIA BED TYPE
General Description
TM
ClearAir
units that include media bed odor control have an
“SO” suffix for single pass and “DO” suffix for double pass
the unit (see p age 20 for sample). As shown in the illustration
below, the odor control section consists of two major components: Odor control media and 30% after filters.
Odor Control Media (bed type)
The odor control media furnished with your Gaylord ClearAir
unit is a product trade named KOR48/Carbon Blend and
manufactured by Cameron/Great Lakes, Inc. of Portland,
Oregon. KOR48/Carbon Blend is made from a unique 50%
aluminosilicate compound impregnated with 6% potassium
permanganate and 50% activated carbon or 100% activated
carbon.
d arenaretemaid ni hcni 01. yletamixorppa era selunarg ehT
poured into metal modules (see page 16) which slide into racks
in the odor control section of the unit. As the air is drawn
through the modules, the KOR48 the media oxidizes the
lighter odor molecules and chemically changes them into
harmless solids which remain in the media and the carbon
absorbs the heavier odor molecules. This combination provides very effective odor control. The 100% carbon is lower
cost alternative that must have fire suppression system installed to protect it as it is flammable. This material absorbs
odor and will gradually decrease in effectiveness until it starts
to release the odors it has absorbed.
The life of the odor control media is dependent upon several factors such as the type of odor, amount of odor molecules, grease loading and air temperature. KOR48 media
has a flat efficiency curve - meaning that the efficiency, or
effectiveness, stays constant until the media has expended
and then the efficiency drops off rapidly. The carbon portion
of the media’s efficiency drops continually during its life. Thus
no etalpeman eht ot refeRber.mun ledom eht ni lortnoc rodo
a regular schedule of change out needs to be established
and followed.
Filters
Smoke control filters in the odor control section of the system requires the replacement prior to them becoming loaded.
It is recommended that the filters be inspected in accordance
with the “Odor Control Media Inspection Frequency Chart”
on this page, and replaced if necessary. The following chart
provides data for ordering filters.
Service and Maintenance
turning to a dark brown during use and light tan when expended. Carbon media is black at the time of delivery. It is
recommended that both medias be checked in accordance
TM
with the table below.
The ClearAir
TM
unit incorporates an “Odor Control Media
Monitoring Tube” to facilitate inspection (refer to page 16).
Using an open end wrench, turn the tube nut counter clockwise and remove the monitoring tube assembly. If the KOR48/
Carbon media is dark brown, break a granule open and if the
inside is light tan there is very little life left and it should be
replaced. If the outside of the granules are light tan the media is completely expended and must be replaced. If you are
unable to determine the status send a small sample (one
teaspoon) to Cameron Great Lakes noting the date of installation. They will conduct a life test and advise the results by
fax or phone within 2 days of receipt. For further details contact Cameron Great Lakes .

Replacing the Media
There are two methods of replacing the media, the Advancing Program or Site Refill.
Advancing Program - This is a program offered by
Cameron/Great Lakes, Inc. where they will ship recycled
pre-filled modules in exchange for used modules. The prefilled modules are shipped two to a box, box size 25" x 25"
x 13", which weigh approximately 90 lbs. The boxes are
palletized, 36 to a pallet, and are shrink wrapped. Three
primary advantages of the “Advancing Program” are: 1) virtually no requirement for storage except for the short period
of time needed to switch the new modules for the expended
ones 2) minimizes unit down time and 3) avoids filling on
site.
To participate in the “Advancing Program” proceed as
follows:
1. Contact the local Cameron/Great Lakes distributor and
order the number of modules required.
2. Upon receipt, remove the depleted modules and replace
with the new modules.
3. Empty the media from the depleted modules into containers for disposal.
4. Pack the empty used modules into the boxes the new
ones came in and ship back to the distributor..
5. Fill the media monitoring tube with new media and mark
the date on the monitoring tube label.
Site Refill - Site refill involves the purchase and storage of
new media, emptying and refilling the modules and disposing
of the spent media. New media may be purchased from your
local Cameron Great Lakes distributor. For the name and
phone number of the local distributor call Cameron/Great Lakes.
Step 3. Place the filling jig over opening.
Step 4. Pour the media into the module.
Step 5. To eliminate voids, shake or vibrate the module to
ensure that the media settles.
Step 6. Continue adding media until module is full.
Caution: Do not overfill as it may cause the sides
to bulge.
Step 7. Replace cover plate and
install securing screw.
Step 8. Optional - some dusting
may occur on initial start
up of the unit. To minimize this, vacuum or
blow out the modules.
New media comes in standard five gallon buckets which weigh
40 lbs each. One bucket will refill approximately 1.33 modules. It is recommended that new media is purchased no
more than 2 weeks in advance of its use. The buckets should
be protected against physical damage as KOR48/carbon will
begin to oxidize any odor molecule when exposed to atmosphere. The buckets should be stored in a cool dry area.
Removing the Modules
Caution - each module weighs approximately 30 lbs. and
may be awkward to handle particularly in the upper racks.
It is highly recommended that a heavy duty steel wheeled
ladder be used when removing the upper modules.
Caution - Exhaust fan must be off before opening the odor
control media access door.
Refilling the modules is a relatively simple task not requiring
any special tools. Follow steps 1-11:
Step 1. Set the module on end so the securing screw is
on top.
Step 2. Remove the securing screw and slide the cover
plate off.
Step 9. Slide the modules back into the rack being
cautious that the airflow label is matching the
airflow of the unit.

Step 11.Pour new media into the media monitoring tube
and re-install. Record the date on the label.
