APPLICATION

The F100 Media Air Cleaner captures a significant amount of the air-borne particles from the air circulated through the unit.

SPECIFICATIONS

IMPORTANT

The specifications in this publication do not include normal manufacturing tolerances; therefore, an individual unit may not exactly match the listed specifications. This product is tested and calibrated under closely controlled conditions, and some minor differences in performance can be expected if those conditions are changed.

Models:

F100F Media Air Cleaner includes cabinet, access door and pleated media filter. Some units include a W8600A AirWatch™ Indicator. F100B Media Air Cleaner includes cabinet and access door.

Application:

Use with gas, oil, and electric forced warm air furnaces and with compressor cooling. Can be used with heat pumps if filter is changed regularly to prevent excessive pressure drop. Not recommended for applications where pressure drop may be critical.

PLANNING THE INSTALLATION

Location

Applications With Air Conditioning

Mount the media air cleaner upstream of the evaporator coil in a cooling system. The filter will help to keep the coil clean and reduce maintenance.

Applications With A Humidifier

The media air cleaner is compatible with humidifiers. Avoid applications where water mist will reach the media. If an atomizing humidifier is used, the filter media will require replacement more often because of minerals in the water.

Choose Mounting Position

The media air cleaner can be mounted in any position, but the arrow on the cartridge must point in the same direction as the airflow. See Figs. 3-10 for proper location of the media air cleaner for a variety of furnace installations. Note that the media air cleaner cabinet is sturdy enough to easily support the weight of the furnace and evaporator coil. See Fig. 4.

M939A

Fig. 3. Highboy furnace, with side installation. Media air filter is mounted vertically where return enters side inlet of furnace.

The media air cleaner should be installed where all the air passing through the system is circulated through it. The best location is in the return air duct next to the blower compartment so the media air cleaner can help to keep the blower motor and evaporator coils clean. Do not mount in the supply air duct.

For most efficient air cleaning, spread airflow evenly across the face of the media. If the duct is a different size than the media air filter cabinet, gradual transitions are required. If the duct turns sharply just before the air filter, turning vanes are required.

Choose a location that is readily accessible for checking and replacing the filter. Allow at least 26 in. (660 mm) clearance in front of the unit for removal of the cartridge.

Install the media air filter where the temperature will not exceed the ratings in the Specifications.

Determining Sheetmetal Requirements

The media air cleaner is adaptable to all new or existing forced air heating and cooling systems used in residential applications. Transitions or turning vanes may be required in some applications for effective media air cleaner operation.

Transitions

Transitions are needed when the duct is a different size than the media air cleaner cabinet. Follow these guidelines when fabricating:

1.Use gradual transitions to reduce air turbulence and increase efficiency. See Fig. 11.

2.Use no more than 20 degrees (about 4 in. per running ft. (100 mm per 300 linear mm)) of expansion on each side of a transition fitting.

Turning Vanes

If the media air cleaner is installed next to an elbow or angle fitting, add turning vanes inside the angle to distribute airflow more evenly across the face of the media. See Fig 12.

Offsets

If the duct connection to the furnace in a side installation allows less than 7 in. (178 mm) for mounting media air cleaner cabinet, attach an offset to the elbow. See Fig. 13.
