Fig. 5 — Air Cleaner Schematic (with Air Proving Switch) 

Electronic Air Cleaner Installation 

1.  Remove  existing  equipment  filter.  Thoroughly  clean 

fan compartment and ductwork where Air Cleaner is 
to be installed. 

2.  Open  access  door.  Slide  filters  and  collecting  cells 

out of cabinet. 

3.  Place  cabinet  in  ductwork.  Holes  are  provided  to 

attach  cabinet  to  ductwork  or  equipment.  If  the 
adjoining  ductwork  is  flanged,  install  the  screws  so 
that the screw heads are inside the cabinet. This will 
help  prevent  damage  to  prefilter  and  carbon  filters 
during  removal  for  cleaning. 

Never

  put  screws  or 

rivets 

into 

the 

removable 

power 

box. 

When  the  air  duct  does  not  fit  the  Air  Cleaner 
opening,  a  gradual  transition  is  recommended  to 
reduce air turbulence though the air Air Cleaner and 
to  increase  its  efficiency.  There  should  not  be  more 
than  20º  of  expansion  used  on  each  side  of  the 
transition fitting. Do not reduce ductwork to a smaller 
Air Cleaner or it will increase the velocity of airflow. 

4.  If the Air Cleaner is installed adjacent to an elbow or 

angle  fitting,  turning  vanes  are  recommended  to 
improve air distribution across the collecting cells. 

5.  After the Air Cleaner has been installed, seal seams 

airtight  with  duct  tape  or  caulking  to  prevent  dust 
from entering the system. 

6.  Replace the prefilters in the track on the air entering 

side.  Place  the  carbon  filters  evenly  spaced  in  the 
track  on  the  air  exiting  side.  The  collecting  cells  are 
placed  between  the  tracks,  with  the  arrow  on  cell 
pointing  towards  the  fan.  The  cell  handle  may  need 
to  be  repositioned  if  the  airflow  is  in  a  different 
direction  than  the  left  to  right  set  up.  The  handle 
should face the door. Close access door. 

 
Wiring 

 

Wiring  should  only  be  performed  by  qualified  personnel 
only. All wiring must comply with all applicable codes and 
standards. The voltage  of the power source must match 
the voltage indicated on the Air Cleaner. The Air Cleaner 
must  operate 

ONLY

  when  the  system  fan  is  running. 

Make sure the Air Cleaner is properly grounded. 

If  the  air  cleaner  is  equipped  with  a  cord  and  plug, 

the air cleaner can be plugged into an outlet within 6 feet 
of  the  unit.  Do  not  use  an  extension  cord  if  the  outlet  is 
too  far  away.  Have  an  electrician  wire  in  a  new  outlet 
closer to the air cleaner.   

If  the  air  cleaner  is  not  equipped  with  a  cord,  then 

wire  the  Air  Cleaner  directly  to  a  220-240  V  power 
source,  preferably  to  the  same  source  that  is  supplying 
power to the furnace or air handler. The APS will power 
the Air Cleaner when there is sufficient airflow to activate 
the sensor. See Fig 5. 

Note:

  The  power  switch  will  be  lit  even  if  there  is  no 

airflow. 

If the unit  is to be  wired to the EAC contacts on the 

system  module,  check  that  there  is  sufficient  voltage  to 
the EAC contacts with the fan operating in all conditions. 
Some systems do not power the contacts on low speed. 
 

SYSTEM CHECK 

Perform the following system check before operation. 
1.  Replace  prefilters,  collecting  cells  and  carbon  filters. 

Close access door. 

2.  Turn  Air  Cleaner  power  switch 

ON

.  Ensure  system 

fan  is  operating.  Both  the  power  switch  light  and 
performance  indicator  light  should  be  lit.  The  power 
switch light indicates the Air Cleaner has unit voltage. 
The  performance  indicator  light  shows  that  the  Air 
Cleaner is operating. 

WARNING  

Electrical  shock  can  cause  injury  or  death.  Be  certain 
main line disconnect switch is off before wiring.
