Fig. 17. Wiring 3-Speed Remote Switch
7. Connect the ground wire from the power supply to a
ground stud of the outlet box.(Green)
8. Connect the ground wire from the air cleaner to the
ground stud of the outlet box.(Green)
9. Use one wire nut to connect the black color-coded, lead
wire on the remote switch to the black color-coded wire
from the power supply.
10. Fold wires into box and mount remote switch on outlet
box. Leave switch in OFF position.
11. On the air cleaner remove two screws on wiring com-
partment cover and open
12. Run five conductor, color coded, 14 gauge wires from
the remote switch through the air cleaner access open-
ing into the wiring compartment. Strip ends of remote
switch lead wires
13. Connect three wires on air cleaner to remote switch
lead wires with wire nuts following color code used at
remote switch. (Red, Blue, Violet)
14. Connect one wire on air cleaner to power supply wire
with a wire nut following color code used at remote
switch. (White)
15. Connect the ground wire from the remote switch to a
ground stud of the wiring compartment cover.(Green)
16. Fold wires into wiring compartment. Replace wiring
compartment cover.
17. Turn on power to air cleaner at fuse or breaker.
18. Check operation by turning air cleaner at HIGH,
MEDIUM, and LOW. Note
that only the remote switch
will operate the air cleaner.
19. Turn off the power and install the filters in the cabinet.
NOTE: Select models have a disposable aluminum spacer.
the spacer is necessary only when using the CPZ
modules. All other filters need to remove and save
the spacer for future needs. Refer to figures 1 and 2.
20. Replace the motor compartment cover.
OPERATION
Because the F116 Series 2 air cleaner provides its own
circulation, it can be mounted independently or in a duct
system. When used in a duct, the air cleaner volume must be
the same as the duct and plenum.
When the air cleaner is powered, the blower/motor draws the
contaminated air into the air cleaner. Particles that are too
small to be caught in the prefilter are trapped by the primary
filter. The clean air is then discharged (two stage) or goes
through a second primary filter (three stage) and is then
discharged.
The F116 Series 2 air cleaner has been engineered to
improve indoor air quality for commercial and industrial
applications. The filters are the most practical and effective
filtering system for removing atmospheric dust, pollens,
bacteria, viruses, mold spores, smoke, fumes, mists and
aerosols. Refer to Fig. 8.
The air cleaner is either operating or off. There are no other
operational options available. Even when the area is
unoccupied, the air cleaner can be operated continuously to
prevent buildup of airborne contaminants. Operate the air
cleaner only when the area is occupied when specific
activities produce contaminants.
The CPZ™ sorbent module has the ability to collect and hold
gas-phase compounds and vapors typically found in
commercial and light industrial facilities. These gases and
vapors frequently appear as odors that, at times, can be
annoying and irritating. The modules become saturated after
collecting 25% to 50% of their weight in gaseous odors. The
quantity of CPZ™ material provides adequate dwell time to
ensure up to 95% collection efficiency in the first pass. This
also provides a long maintenance-free service life.
The minimum recommended air exchange rate is 2.5 times
per hour. In a heavily contaminated area, up to 15 air
exchanges per hour can be necessary. The factors that
determine what the rate of air exchange should be are:
• generation rates of the various pollutants;
• concentration level of the pollutants;
• desired contamination reduction level.
Airborne contaminants will always be present in the air where
contaminant generations take place. Air cleaning systems and
ventilators do not eliminate airborne contaminants, they
reduce the excessive accumulation of the contaminants. To
eliminate the contamination, the source of contamination must
be removed.
Local, Federal and professional ventilation engineering
standards and codes prescribe minimum ventilation rates to
dilute air contamination in specific applications. The
ventilation rates usually assume the injection of outdoor air
measured as air exchange rate. The use of the F116 air
cleaner to comply with ventilation requirements is an
acceptable alternative to ventilation with outdoor air. However,
at least 20% of a specified ventilation rate or code must be
derived from outdoor air. The F116 air cleaner filtered and
recirculated air can be the remaining 80%.
