SERVICE
CAUTION
Electrical Hazard.
Can cause personal injury or equipment damage.
Turn off power before installing or servicing the air
cleaner.
IMPORTANT
Be sure to change filters as recommended to prevent
reduced airflow in the air cleaner. Stand on a stable
platform when working with the air cleaner.
IMPORTANT
Air cleaner and components are susceptible to
damage. Take care when working with them to avoid
equipment damage.
The air cleaner removes a variety of particulate contaminants
from the air. In the process of cleaning the air, the air cleaner
filters become dirty and the cleaning efficiency is lowered.
To maintain a high standard of reliability and efficiency, it is
necessary to periodically service the air cleaner. The
maintenance is determined by the quantity and type of
contaminants present and the frequency of air cleaner use.
The frequency of servicing can be established after a period of
use.
NOTE: Some full-service distributors provide regular
servicing to commercial establishments.
The particle filter life ranges from 6 to 24 months with 12 to 18
months as an average.The useful life of the CPZ™ sorbent
modules may vary from 4 to 24 months, depending on the
application. In most applications, the sorbent media life
ranges from 4 to12 months. The filters and modules need to
be changed more frequently in facilities that operate 24 hours
a day.
Determining Media Filter Change
Media type particulate filters cause an increase in pressure as
they collect and retain airborne particulates. The best way to
determine when to replace these filters involves monitoring
the pressure across the filters with a differential pressure
gauge.
If a differential pressure gauge is not used, the apparent air
volume that one feels is a good indicator of the filter loading.
When the air volume is noticeably less, the cleanliness of the
air in the space will decline. When that occurs, change the
primary media filter(s). Then schedule the next primary media
filter(s) change to occur 60 days earlier that the first filter
change. Typically, change the prefilter at least every 3 months
and the primary media filter(s) 12 to 18 months.
CPZ™ Adsorbent Module
The CPZ™ adsorbent module is used to collect gases,
vapors, odors and volatile organic compounds (V.O.C.) from
the air that passes through the air cleaner. Adsorbents collect
and hold 25% to 50% of their weight in odorous gases and
vapors. The impurities are collected until the adsorbents reach
saturation. At saturation, the adsorbents emit a continuous
strong pungent odor. If the air cleaner is turned off for 8 to 10
hours, there will a temporary odor when it is turned back on. If
the odor persists for 30 minutes, it is time to replace the filters.
Prefilter, Media Filters and CPZ
Modules
The disposable prefilter collects large dust particulates and
lint- type airborne fibers. Check the filter every 3 months to
determine the replacement frequency:
IMPORTANT
Do not touch the pleated filter media. Handle only the
filter frame to prevent damage to the filter media.
1. Verify power shut off
2. Remove the air cleaner cover and set aside.
3. Remove the prefilter and primary filters.
4. Check the prefilter and replace if it is fully coated with
dust and lint. (approximately every 3 months)
5. Replace the primary media filter(s) when there is a
noticeable loss of air volume from the air cleaner
(approximately every 12 - 18 months)
6. Replace the CPZ sorbent modules when a continuous
noticeable odor is emitted from the air cleaner.
(approximately every 4 to 12 months).
7. Reassemble the air cleaner and turn the power on.
On initial startup, a small amount of dust can blow from the air
cleaner. This is normal and stops a few minutes after startup.
After running the unit for 5 minutes, turn off the unit, the unit is
ready for operation.
