7.3 Secondary HEPA Filter/Motor Replacement
The HEPA Filters under normal usage and barring an accident (a puncture), do not need replacement until the efflux
velocity cannot be maintained or the access inflow velocity cannot be maintained at 100 LFPM (.51 m/s) (min.). This may
permit the average downflow velocity to be as low as 55 LFPM (.27 m/s) as long as no point falls below 20% of the average
downflow velocity.
The HEPA Filters should not be replaced until the entire cabinet has been decontaminated or known to be biologically
"clean".
7.3.1
Procedure
Disconnect electrical power from the cabinet before attempting any
maintenance action.
Step 1:
Remove screws at each upper side of the control center and allow the control center to rotate down,
resting on the safety straps. Second, remove the front decorative panel which is held into position by
(3) knurled nuts on the top edge and snap fit bullet catches on the bottom.
Step 2:
Place sliding window into lowest position * and remove front filter panel, which is held into position by
Phillip pan head screws. Once the screws are removed, the panel is held into position by smooth weld
studs located on the top corner of the front filter panel. Use the window stop brackets as handles to
remove the panel.
NOTE: Screws are used in lieu of acorn nuts, and lock washers.
The screws have O-rings and should be replaced if damaged or badly deformed.
The interior of the cabinet is now fully exposed for replacement of the filters and/or motor/blower.
*The lowest window position will require the armrest to be removed. If the cabinet has the power window option,
access the Power Window Test menu to adjust the power window into its lowest position with the armrest
removed. Access Calibration/Service menu, then Service menu, then Power Window menu to Power Window
Test.
Step 3: Filter Removal
It is not always necessary to replace both the supply and exhaust filters at the same time. If during the
course of certifications, the downflow always falls off while the exhaust increases the supply filter is
"loading" faster than the exhaust filter and only the supply filter may need replacement. The opposite
might also happen depending upon many factors.
a. To remove the supply filter:
1. Remove the plenum screws in front of the supply HEPA filter.
2. Lift the permanent plenum and hold up with wire strap.
3. Carefully remove the supply filter. Direct exposure should be avoided.
Dispose of spent HEPA filters properly.
Avoid direct contact to "dirty side" of the filters.
Place in sealed bag and label all waste containers/cartons based on
type of hazard. Follow all Local, State and Federal guidelines for
disposal of HEPA filter solid waste.
