Service and Maintenance

Front Load Filter Option

Front loaded filter options require that the filters be removed 
and replaced from inside the unit.

To remove filters, rotate the wire clips. This releases both the 
prefilter and the final filter. When installing clean filters, check 
to verify the filters are fully seated in the frame. See Figure 38.

Figure 38: Frame and Filters with Holding Clips

Filter Gauges

Filter gauges indicate pressure drop for installed filters.

Table 18 shows the typical filter pressure drop for clean filters 
at rated air flow. The tables also show a final pressure drop for 
front loaded filters.

Where a single filter gauge is used, the prefilters can be 
removed to check the pressure drop of the final filters.
