HOW THE AIR CLEANER WORKS A Dirt particles flowing through the ducts (Figure 1) first enters the pre-filters (A) where large particles (hair, lint, etc.) are trapped. Smaller particles (smoke, dust, pollen, etc.) pass through these pre-filters and enter the ionizing section (B). Here each tiny particle receives a positive electrical charge. These charged particles then enter the collecting section (C).

INSTALLATION REMOVE OLD FILTER AND DISCARD (Figure 12) NOTE: This filter may be mounted in the furnace compartment. CLEAN BLOWER COMPARTMENT Figure 12 It is suggested that the furnace blower compartment, blower and blower housing be cleaned to ensure clean air circulation. INSTALLATION Frame Duct The following is a typical installation of the air cleaner on a “Highboy” furnace (Figure 8). 1. Place the air filter cleaner on the floor. Stand it upright with the power door facing you (Figure 4).
10. With the cabinet Installed, reinstall pre-filter(s) and collecting cell(s) (Figure 19). NOTE: The contact button and handles on the cell must be facing you and ionizing wires must be on the air intake side. 11. Install the power pack as follows: Engage the lip on lower inside edge of power pack in the flange on cabinet and carefully close the power pack, making sure that the electrical connector prongs on the power pack enter the slots in the socket on cabinet.
OPERATION 1. With the 120 VAC power turned on at the circuit breaker for the furnace, push the air cleaner ON-OFF switch to the “ON” position (Figure 20). 2. With the furnace blower running, the air cleaner will be operating. An arcing or “snapping” sound may be heard. This will occur occasionally, however the unit is operating properly. 3. With the furnace blower running, the Operating Light should be ON.
REPLACING AN IONIZING WIRE If an ionizing wire should break, it can be replaced as follows: 1. Remove all pieces of broken wire. Make sure supports at each end are in good condition and not bent out of shape. 2. Hook the new wire onto the support at one end. 3. Hold your finger against the support at the other end (Figure 21) and hold the ionizing wire between thumb and forefinger as shown or use needle nose pliers. Press inward on spring support.
BASIC SST SERVICE GUIDE This guide will cover most homeowner complaints. If, after checking the items listed, the unit still fails to operate properly, contact the nearest Authorized Service Center. SERVICE INDICATION SERVICE CHECKS ON/OFF switch “ON” Blower ON Operating Light ON Unit functioning Normally ON/OFF switch “ON” Blower ON Operating Light OFF 1. Power is not being supplied to air cleaner. A. Check fuse or circuit breaker. B. Ensure power pack is properly installed and latched. 2.
TECHNICAL REPAIR GUIDE ! All voltage measurements indicated can be made with a high voltage D.C. probe and a general purpose volt ohm meter. For example: Simpson 260 or equivalent. WARNING Do not attempt repair of this unit unless you are familiar with the necessary tools, equipment, utility connections and potential hazards. For test purposes, the air flow switch may be “wired out” of the system.
4. Using a standard extension cord, apply 120 VAC to power pack. Turn power switch to “ON” position. 5. Connect meter negative (-) lead to metal frame of collecting cell. Use high voltage probe to measure voltage at collecting cell ionizer or cell plates. Voltage should be 6100 to 6800 VDC. NOTE: A new “out-of-box” cell may cause the voltage to be lower than normal for a short period of time. To obtain a more accurate measurement, “age” the cell by applying high voltage to the cell for 15 to 30 minutes.
OZONE REDUCTION All electronic air cleaners typically produce a small amount of ozone that is within established limits. Some customers may notice an odor especially at high altitudes or low air flow rates. This power supply has a “hairpin” shaped jumper wire labeled W1 (see Fig 24) that can be cut and separated in case of such complaints. This will cause the power supply to limit the maximum operating power to a lower level.
