EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
Proper maintenance is critical to extend the life of the system. The information presented below outlines basic maintenance procedures ensuring the
unit will provide trouble-free operation. The purifier is designed to allow quick access to the filters, blower/motor and control panel assembly.
8.1
GENERAL FILTER MAINTENANCE
It is very difficult to predetermine specific maintenance schedule as rate of dust loading and chemical filter consumption will vary or each application.
Periodic inspection of filters and pressure gauge during the first few months of operation should help establish an appropriate replacement schedule.
QUATRO, through its years of experience has established the following recommendations for a "typical" replacement filter schedule:
Filter Type: Suggested
Replacement:
Filter
Type: Suggested
Replacement:
Dust Filters
every 3-6 months
Hi-Efficiency Filter
every 6-18 months
Odor Filters
every 12-24 months (depending on application)
HEPA Filter
every 12-24 months
Note:
These recommendations may vary based on room size or work volume.
8.2
PARTICULATE FILTER REPLACEMENT
a)
Open with appropriate tool (Phillips screw driver) to avoid stripping of screws;
b)
Carefully slide out filters along their support channels, Slide clean filters gently into place;
c)
Ensure Dust Filters are replaced as per airflow indications;
e)
If encountering difficulties, confirm that there are no obstructions in the filter track;
f)
Hi-Efficiency/HEPA filters must be replaced as per airflow arrow on the filter casing;
g) HEPA filters should be replaced if the filter gauge (optional on AF600) on the control panel exceeds 1.6";
h)
HEPA filters should be installed with gaskets facing down on the filter tracking;
i)
Utmost care must be taken not to damage the exposed portions of HEPA filter. DO NOT bend aluminium separators as it will obstruct airflow.
8.3
CHEMICAL FILTER TRAY (F003) MAINTENANCE
It is essential that the chemical filter be replaced approximately once every twelve months
OR
immediately following any detection of odor. After an
operating period of twelve months (or when the filters are consumed), call your authorised distributor to purchase a new set of chemical filtration
assemblies (Part No: F003-_ ) prior to removal of existing one. To replace Odor Filter (Part No: F003 or F033):
a)
Ensure that the unit is unplugged, open door with appropriate tool to avoid stripping of screws;
b)
Slide out the existing F003 or F033, remove new F003 or F033 from the box that it was shipped in;
c)
Reinsert new filter back into the system (ensure airflow arrows are pointing up;
d)
Return door to the closed position and verify that an airtight seal is maintained;
To refill existing F003 or F033 filter cell with new odor filters:
a)
Slide out existing F003 filter (see diagram on last page of manual);
b)
Unscrew the two (2) top panel covers (4 screws each) and lift off cover;
c)
Pour out used odor filter(
this procedure may be dusty, therefore a dust mask is recommended)
;
d)
Refill F003 container with fresh odor filters and replace the 2 panel covers and re-insert into unit as per diagram on last page of manual;
Filter disposal is the responsibility of the end-user. Please contact local authorities for proper and legal disposal.

BLOWER
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Switch unit off and unplug power cord from wall before servicing the blower.
The motor is equipped with electric motor grade double shielded ball bearings and a special lubricant, assuring long life and quiet operation. No extra
motor maintenance is required.
8.5
ANNUAL GENERAL INSPECTION
The sealing integrity of the
AF Purifier
is essential. Every 12 months, verify that all gaskets are in proper condition. Should the door gaskets adhere
to the unit when opening a door, lubricate its surface with a transparent grease or petroleum jelly. Should the unit be relocated continuously for
optimum efficiency, ensure all casters are tightly fastened.
