Application
This air cleaner is used in forced air heating, cooling, and ventilating systems. The air
cleaner should be installed in the system such that all the system air is circulated
through the air cleaner. Maximum performance is obtained with the system blower set
for continuous operation.
Installation Requirements
The best location for the air cleaner is in the return air duct next to the blower
compartment. In this location, the blower motor and cooling coils will be kept clean.
Do not install the air cleaner in the discharge air duct. Do not install the air cleaner
directly exposed to UV lighting. Before installing the air cleaner, consider the
application. If a transition between the ductwork and air cleaner is required, refer to
section entitled
Transitions
, below. The unit must be readily accessible for periodic
inspection and replacement of the filter cartridge to maintain maximum efficiency and
trouble-free operation. A clean coil will reduce utility costs by maintaining the coil’s
efficiency. Failure to replace filter cartridge can cause damage to the cooling system.
Allow a minimum of 26” clearance in front of the access panel for filter cartridge
replacement.
Transitions
If the air duct does not fit the
air cleaner cabinet opening,
gradual transitions are
recommended to reduce air
turbulence through the air
cleaner and maximize
efficiency. Not more than
20° (about 4” per running
foot) of expansion should be
used on each side of the
transition fitting.
