Model: OVH-10-C Operation & Filter Maintenance
The EAC Filter must be cleaned daily for peak performance. Failure to do so will eventually lead to filter
system failure and reduce Charcoal Filter life. Follow the procedure below for effective cleaning.
The EAC cell is NOT designed to withstand washing in commercial dishwashers.
1. Add 1/2 gal. of a mild degreaser, such as Simple Green or Clear
Magic , to the provided Soak Tank ... add water to the fill line
marked by X’s on the inside of the tank back and mix thoroughly.
2. Grasp the cell’s contact plate and carefully lower the EAC
into the mixed degreasing solution.
3. Allow the EAC to soak for 30 minutes. After that time, grasp the
cell by the contact plate , lift it and agitate up and down in the
solution several times to dislodge grease residue.
4. Carefully remove the EAC from the tank and rinse thoroughly in a
sink using hot water spray.
5. Stand cell on end with contact plate up and allow to air dry
overnight.
6. Inspect cell for broken wires or bent fins. Any broken wires need
to be replaced promptly. Bent fins may be gently straightened by
hand, if needed.
