1.0 General Information

The HFS800C unit incorporates HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air)
filtration which provides the most effective mechanical filtration method
available. In addition to providing HEPA filtration, the HFS800C is
primarily used in a negative pressure and/or recirculation mode. A
negative pressure condition is created in order to confine contaminated
airborne particles. This condition exists when the static pressure inside
the room containing the unit is lower relative to the pressure of the
environment outside the room. The static pressure differential is
created and maintained by continuously exhausting air out of a given
room at a faster rate than air enters the room from all other sources. In
the recirculation mode, all or part of the filtered air is exhausted back
into the room containing the unit.

NOTE: The HFS800C is equipped with a touch pad control panel.
Carefully read the sections of this instruction manual that describe 
how to operate the unit using the touch pad control panel.
