2. The Filter System

Section I – Design

1. Introduction

The Trion Eliminator SE400E & SE800E are
commercial air purifiers that have been
specifically designed to remove airborne
pollutants - including tobacco smoke, dust,
pollen and mold spores - in rooms and areas
where people work or relax. They are
designed to be mounted onto a solid ceiling,
semi-recessed for into a suspended ceiling, or
wall mounted (SE400E only). Where
appropriate they can also draw in additional
fresh air.
Their features make them the ideal air purifier
for installations into areas such as offices,
conference rooms, restaurants, designated
smoking areas, institutions and waiting rooms
or any other place where people gather.

HOW THEY WORK

The Trion SE400E & SE800E utilize the
principle of Electrostatic Precipitation. Air is
drawn into the intake, through the metal
prefilter, which traps lint and large dust
particles. The remaining particles, some as
small as 0.01 microns*, pass into a strong
electrical field (ionizing section) where the
particles receive an electrical charge. The
charged particles pass onto a series of equally
spaced parallel plates (collector section). Each
alternate plate is charged with the same
polarity as the particles, which are repelled,
while the interleaving plates are grounded, and
therefore attract and collect the particles.

* The diameter of a human hair is about 100
micron!

There are two filters in your air cleaner ­THE PRE-FILTER: This is the mechanical
filter that lies behind the inlet grill. It is
designed to remove large particles and can be
washed many times before replacement.

THE ELECTROSTATIC FILTER: This is the
deep aluminum assembly (Collector Cell)
located immediately behind the pre-filter and
is the heart of your air cleaner. It uses an
electrostatic charge to remove particles so
small that it would take a pile of many millions
to cover a pinhead. When dirty it can be
washed and reused indefinitely.

FILTER REMOVAL

TRION SE400E

Turn the control switch off before removing cell.
Press the two cell access latches and the hinged
door will swing down. Remove pre-filter by turning
pre-filter clip 90 degrees (fig 2). While supporting
the weight of the Collector Cell, loosen the filter
retaining screw (fig 3). The filter retaining plate will
now open allowing the filter to be removed (fig 4).
To reinstall the filter, simply reverse above
procedure.

TRION SE800E

The two hinged access doors are secured with
retaining screws (fig 3). Release screws to
allow the doors to swing down. Remove the
Collector Cells as described above.

INSTALLATION LOCATION

The most effective location for the air purifier is
the center of the area to be cleaned because
the dirty air is pulled into the center of the unit
and discharged equally out the four sides. If
more than one unit is required, space them
evenly over the area to be cleaned.
