2.2 Choosing a Suitable Location
When choosing a suitable location for the
IQAir system, keep the following considerations
in mind:
•
Choosing the most suitable room for the
system will depend on where you would
like the focus of the air cleaning efforts. Two
main considerations are the time you spend
in a particular room and the location of the
main air pollution sources. As a general rule,
the closer the system is located to the air
pollution source, the better the air cleaning
performance in the room.
Although an air cleaning result may be
achieved in adjacent rooms, the main air
cleaning will take place in the room where
the system is located. For the best air
cleaning results in adjacent rooms, make
sure that doors to these rooms are left wide
open.
•
For best performance, the system should be positioned at least 12 inches (1 foot) away from the nearest vertical
surface, such as a wall or a cupboard. In general, the more centrally the system is positioned, the better the
performance.
•
Position the system close to a power outlet and make sure that the power cable is positioned in a way that it does
not present an obstacle that could be tripped over.
•
Make sure that the system is positioned in such a way that the control panel is easily accessible.
2.3 Connecting to Power
1. Plug the connector end of the power cord into the recessed power inlet socket on the back of the system.
2. Plug the other end of the power cord into a power outlet or power strip.
Important:
The only way to disconnect power completely is to unplug the power cord.
Do not use the IQAir® system when the power cord becomes damaged.
The power cord may be replaced with an
approved cord with a two-pole plug. These power cords are commonly used for computers and similar appliances.

3.1 Description of Housing Components
The IQAir® system features a modular tower design in which all important filtration and air moving components are
positioned vertically in-line, i.e. stacked on top of another. Air is drawn into the system at the base, and passes
through several filter stages to be returned to the room via the diffuser on top of the system. The housing modules
are held together by two locking arms.
•
The
Base
with its arched design features air intake openings on two sides.
•
The
Filter Module 1
consists of frame 1 and the particulate pre-filter which is secured inside the frame by several
filter clamps.
•
The
Fan Assembly
comprises two housing modules with the centrifugal fan inside.
•
The
Filter Module 2
consists of frame 2 and a steel base plate in which the four gas phase filter cartridges are fixed
by means of a bayonet locking system.
•
Frame 3 to 5
covers the 4 gas phase cartridges and filter sleeves.
•
The
EvenFlow™ Diffuser
features an omni-directional horizontal air outlet.
•
The
Handle
on top of the diffuser is designed for carrying the cleaner.
•
The
Locking Arms
hold the housing elements together. When opened, the locking arms allow easy access to all
filters.
