WHAT THE ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANER DOES
Your High Efficiency Electronic Air Cleaner has been designed to remove tobacco smoke particles, cooking smoke and grease, atmospheric dust, coal dust, insecticide dust, mites, pollen, mold spores, fungi, bacteria, viruses and more down to 0.01 micron (0.01 micron = 1/2,540,000 of an inch).
BENEFITS
Helps clear up a smokey environment quickly, so customers can dine more comfortably.
Helps employees reduce suffering from irritated eyes, nasal congestion and respiratory problems that lead to absenteeism.
Helps prevent damaging black and greasy particles from staining ceilings, walls and furnishings, reducing the amount of housekeeping and redecorating costs.
Helps to lower energy bills by recycling air rather than exhausting expensive heated or cooled air.
HOW IT WORKS
This Air Cleaner works on the principle of "Electrostatic Precipitation". Millions of airborne pollutants are drawn through the intake grill on the bottom of the Air Cleaner and first pass through a Prefilter which removes all large visible particles such as lint. Next, smaller particles move to a two-stage electrostatic Collecting Cell where they are given a powerful positive charge by the ionizing wires. Charged particles then move into the collecting area where they are attracted to a series of grounded plates. Pollutants are held in this section like a magnet until washed away during cleaning. Clean air is then dispersed from the side grills in four directions allowing superior air flow circulation.

WARNING
The frequency of cleaning will vary from one environment to another. The following is an average wash cycle:
Stores, Offices, Computer & Conference Rooms = 4
Weeks
Cafeterias, Restaurants, Lounges = 3-4 Weeks
Bars, Bingo halls = 1-3 Weeks
The unit should be checked on a regular basis to determine the frequency of cleaning required in each location and a cleaning schedule established.
Cleaning
Electrical shock can cause injury or death. Be certain main line disconnect switch is off before wiring.
All wiring must comply with applicable codes and standards. See unit rating label for correct voltage and amperage.
1. Two knockouts are provided, one on top and one on
the side of the unit, adjacent to the wiring
compartment. For convenience, a wall switch may be
installed near the Air Cleaner, in series with the
power source, to turn the unit on and off.
2. Remove the cover of the wiring compartment to
locate the input leads and ground stud. The Air
Cleaner must be grounded for proper operation and
safety.
3. Once the unit is mounted and wired, the cover can be
replaced on the hinge and the chain replaced on the
"S" hooks. Close the cover by sliding the levers
toward the center and pushing the cover up into
place. Release levers to lock the cover into place.
For information on wiring the remote switch control see page 7.
OPERATION & MAINTENANCE
Operation Check
1. With the cell and prefilter in place and the cover
closed, turn the system switch ON.
2. Adjust the fan speed with the slide switch. Insure the
unit functions on all speeds.
3. The performance light should be ON, which indicates
the power board is functioning properly.
4. If the unit is not functioning properly see the
"Troubleshooting Guide"
When the Air Cleaner is new it may arc or periodically make "snapping sounds". A slight odor of ozone may be noticeable. The arcing and odor are due to rough edges and burrs on the cell. These symptoms will disappear during the first few weeks of normal operation. The ozone levels are well below government standards for indoor air concentration.
Maintenance Schedule
The collecting cell and prefilter must be cleaned on a regular basis for the unit to function at its peak efficiency.
CAUTION
Make sure Air Cleaner switch is OFF before performing any maintenance or removing any components.
1. Turn off the system switch and wait 15 seconds for high voltage to dissipate.
2. Open the cover and cell access door and remove collecting cell and prefilter. Cell plates are sharp. Handle with care.
3. Place cell in tub and spray completely with DAX Detergent, allowing detergent to run down both sides
of plates and ionizing wires. Let sit for 5 minutes. Rinse cell well with hot water (140ºF / 60ºC maximum). Repeat washing process if necessary.
4. If dirt or nicotine remains on plates, let cell soak in hot soapy water for 30 minutes. Never use any
instrument to clean the cell, as this may damage the ionizing wires or bend cell plates.
5. Spray prefilter with DAX Detergent and rinse well.
6. To dry cell, tilt on 45º angle against wall with the arrow pointing sideways. Allow to dry completely for
10-24 hours. Place in sunlight for faster drying time.
7. When the cell and prefilter are dry, place them back
into the unit. The arrow on the cell points up. The red fiberboard on the cell should line up with the contacts in the cabinet. Close door and cover. If the cell arcs when the switch is turned on or if the performance light does not come on, then the cell may be still wet. Allow more time for drying.
CAUTION
Damage to cell may occur if improperly handled or washed. Do not wash cell in a dishwasher. Never use any object to clean between the cell plates, as this may cause damage to plates or ionizing wires. Never place cell in oven to dry. The edges of the cell may be sharp - handle with care.
The use of DAX Detergent is strongly recommended
for cleaning as it is a heavy-duty solution used expressly for removal of accumulated pollutants on cell plates. If used as directed, DAX will not harm aluminum or steel. Any problem arising out of the use of another cleaning agent will void the warranty. Do not use detergents that

are corrosive or abrasive or detergents containing chlorine or ammonia.
Fig. 4 DAX Detergent is available in 35 ounce (1 litre) spray bottles or 1 gallon (4.54 L) and 4.8 gallons (22 L) containers from your installer or dealer.
SERVICE
WARNING
Electronic Air Cleaners use high voltage (low amperage). Only trained personnel should perform service. USE CAUTION! Electric shock can cause injury or death.
CAUTION
For most troubleshooting the cell should be removed from the Air Cleaner. A short in the cell will
cause the power board to shutdown and the performance light will stay off. Unless otherwise directed remove the cell from the unit when testing.
The Air Cleaner when operating normally will have the fan running and the performance indicator light ON. If this is not the case the see the Troubleshooting Guide for probable causes and remedies.
WARNING
When performing LIVE tests in the power box NEVER touch any parts other then what are mentioned in the tests. Components carry dangerous voltages and extreme care must be taken.
Testing For High Voltage At Power Board
For the following test you will need to have the hinged cover open with the collecting cell out of the unit.
1. Remove the hinged cover and the cover panel to the
power box. Push a screwdriver into the slot to defeat
the interlock switch and turn the Air Cleaner ON.
2. With a long shafted screwdriver, with a plastic handle,
short between the grounded side of the power box
and the HV1 terminal of the power board.
3. If you draw a good spark, there is high voltage from
the power board.
Measuring High Voltage At Power Board
A high voltage meter capable of measuring up to
10,000 VDC is required to test the voltage.
1. The Air Cleaner should be ON with the cell installed
and the cell access door closed. The Air Cleaner should be on at least 5 minutes to allow voltage to stabilize.
2. Remove the hinged cover and the cover panel from power box.
3. Connect the ground of the high voltage meter to ground stud in the power box.
4. Turn the Air Cleaner ON, and defeat the interlock switch.
5. Check terminals HV1 and HV2 on the power board to determine if voltage is present. See Fig. 5 for values..
5. If no voltage is present, remove the cell from the Air Cleaner.
a. Check the voltage at HV1 and HV2 again.
b. If voltage is present, the problem is with the cell
or the wiring to the copper contacts.
c. Check the condition of the copper contacts and
wiring.
d. If the contacts are not bent and the wiring is OK,
the problem is with the cell. See the Troubleshooting Guide for more information.
e. If there is no voltage with the cell removed, check
the power board, system switch and transformer to make sure that they are functioning correctly.
6. If there is voltage present, but the performance light does not come on, replace the light.

8. Return power to Air Cleaner. Test power board.
9. Replace power box cover panel and close cover.
Note: The power board has been set before shipping. It is not usually necessary to reset the voltage to the new load. If you do need to adjust the voltage refer to Setting Voltage of Power Board section for more information.
Testing The 24 V Transformer
1. Remove the cover and cover panel to the power box.
2. Disconnect the leads of the 24 V transformer from the power board. See Fig. 5. Do not short the leads.
3. Push a screwdriver into the slot to defeat the interlock switch and turn the Air Cleaner ON.
4. Measure the voltage across the leads with a voltmeter. Voltage should read 25 - 28 VAC.
5. If no voltage is present, check the voltage from the system switch.
6. If there is voltage to the transformer but no output, replace the transformer.
Replacing The 24 V Transformer
Before replacing the transformer, check the
resistance across the power board 24 V input terminals, without the transformer connected. Resistance should read above 20K ohms with an analog meter and above 4M ohms with a digital meter. If the resistance readings are below these values, the power board may be the cause of the transformer failure.
Before replacing the 24 V transformer, turn OFF the
power to the Air Cleaner at the source.
1. Remove the cover and power box cover panel.
2. Disconnect the secondary leads from the transformer
to the 24 V terminals on the power board. See Fig. 5.
3. Remove the black primary lead from the system switch. Remove the wire nut from the other primary lead.
4. Remove the 2 hex head nuts and washers from the transformer studs.
5. Remove the transformer.
6. Place new transformer over studs and re-install the
hex head nuts and washers to secure into place.
7. Connect the secondary leads (white) to the 24 V terminals on the power board (P1 & P2).
8. Place one black lead on the system switch terminal.
9. Place the other black lead with the two white leads from the terminal block and connect with the wire nut you removed earlier.
10. Replace power box cover panel and close cover.
11. Turn ON the power to the Air Cleaner and test.
Setting Voltage Of Power Board
Voltage on the power board may drop below required level when the installation area is too damp, too cold or the input power to the unit is low. Voltage on power board may be too high when the installation area is too dry or too hot or the input power to the unit is high. By adjusting the HV Adj. potentiometer, the voltage can be set to optimum level. A high voltage meter capable of measuring 10,000 VDC is required. To test and adjust voltage level, perform the following procedure:
1. Turn the Air Cleaner ON and wait 5 minutes before
checking voltage to allow voltage on cell to stabilize.
2. Turn the Air Cleaner OFF, with the cell in the unit.
3. Remove cover and the power box cover panel.
4. Connect the ground of the high voltage meter to the
ground stud in the power box.
5. Turn the Air Cleaner ON and defeat interlock switch.
6. Measure the voltage at HV1 and HV2 on the power
board.
7. Adjust the HV Adj. potentiometer until the voltage
reading matches the voltage in Fig. 5. Adjusting the
potentiometer clockwise decreases the voltage and
turning counter-clockwise increases the voltage.
8. Turn OFF the Air Cleaner.
9. Remove the high voltage meter.
10. Replace the power box cover panel and close cover.
11. Turn ON the Air Cleaner.
Setting Approximate Voltage Without High Voltage Meter
A high voltage meter should be used to set the high voltage. If one is not available, this method can be used. This will only set an approximate voltage. After using this method, the voltage should be reset with a high voltage meter as soon as possible.
1. Remove power box cover panel, with the cell in the
unit.
2. Turn the HV Adj. potentiometer fully counter-
clockwise. The Air Cleaner may arc or snap at this
point.
3. Turn the HV Adj. potentiometer clockwise
approximately a quarter turn.
4. Replace power box cover panel and close cover.
Testing For Voltage At The Cell
1. Remove the cover and power box cover panel.
2. The cell must be in the Air Cleaner for this test.
3. Turn the Air Cleaner ON and defeat the safety
interlock switch.
4. Place a plastic handled screwdriver into the direction
arrow slot. Do not apply excessive force.
5. If there is a good snap then there is high voltage at
the cell.
6
Page 7
Testing Cell For Bad Contacts
1. Remove the cover and power box cover panel.
2. The cell must be in the Air Cleaner for this test.
3. Turn the Air Cleaner ON and defeat the safety interlock switch.
4. Place a plastic handled screwdriver into the direction arrow slot. Do not apply excessive force.
5. There should be an initial snap when the plates are shorted, then no sound. If a hissing occurs, then there is a bad contact. Look along the top of the cell, with the short still in place. If there is a small arc between the cell top and copper contact, then that is the bad contact. Pull the cell out and gently pull the copper contact down.
6. If an arc is not seen and there is a bad contact, then the problem may be an internal contact in the cell.
See below for additional testing.
Testing Cell With An Ohmmeter
To test the cell for a dead short or a bad contact an
ohmmeter can be used. Always discharge the cell with
a screw driver before testing with an ohmmeter.
1. With the ohmmeter set on its lowest scale take a reading between the top center contact of the cell and the ionizing fingers on the bottom of the cell. You should have continuity. If you do not then there is a bad contact between the center contact and the top set of ionizing fingers.
2. Test the resistance between the top center contact and the cell frame. You should read infinite resistance. If not you have a short in the ionizing section.
3. Take a reading between the two outside contacts on the top of the cell. You should have continuity. If you do not then there is a bad contact between one of the contacts to the live cell plate. Test each top outside contact to the last plate in the cell to determine which contact is not mating properly.
4. Test the resistance between the outside contacts and the cell frame. You should read infinite resistance. If not you have a short in the collecting section.
Replacing A Tungsten Ionizing Wire
Replacement wires are cut to the correct length and
have eyelets at each end for easy replacement.
1. Turn OFF power to Air Cleaner.
2. Remove cell from Air Cleaner.
3. Remove all parts of broken wire from the cell. If necessary, the cell may be used temporarily with one wire missing until a replacement is received.
4. Place one end of the loop over the finger at the bottom of the cell.
5. Using needle-nose pliers, grip the other end of wire, near the bottom of the top loop. Pull the wire up toward the top finger. As you apply tension, the bottom finger will give, allowing the placement of the loop around the top finger.
6. Install cell in Air Cleaner.
7. Return power to Air Cleaner.
8. Test cell for proper operation.
Replacing A Fan Motor
1. Turn OFF power to Air Cleaner at the source.
2. Open the cover and remove cells and prefilters from Air Cleaner.
3. Remove the fan blade from the motor shaft.
4. Remove the cover and power box cover panel. Disconnect the four motor wires from the terminal block. Gently pull the wires up into the motor compartment.
5. Remove the four hex nuts holding the motor plate to the cabinet. Remove the motor and plate.
6. Remove the four hex nuts from the back of the motor plate to release the motor.
7. Replace the isolator rubbers on the motor plate.
8. Attach the new motor to the motor plate with a flat washer on both sides of the rubber isolator. Place the motor plate into the cabinet with the wires toward the plastic bushing to allow the wires to be feed to the power box.
9. Secure the motor plate to the cabinet.
10. Feed the motor wires down through the plastic bushing and secure to the terminal block.

11. Reinstall the fan blade, cell and prefilter.
12. Replace the power box cover panel and close the cover.
13. Turn ON the Air Cleaner and test the motor on all speeds.
REMOTE SWITCH CONTROL
The remote switch control, if ordered with the unit,
has two switches which control power to the unit and control the speed of the motor. The remote switch control cannot be added to a non-remote unit.
The switch control can be mounted in a convenient
location and wired back to the unit to control the functions. The control box has holes on the back for mounting and knockouts on five sides for the electrical wires to be attached. A terminal block is mounted inside the box to facilitate wiring.
Run an approved seven wire cable between the
control box and the unit. Refer to Fig. 6 for wiring connections between the control and the unit. Both the remote box and the unit must be grounded for proper and safe operation.
