9.0 OPERATION
For your convenience, the
AF Purifier
is equipped with a pressure gauge recessed within the control panel to allow for a visual indication of filter
pressure (optional on the AF600 model). IN THE EVENT OF HIGH FILTER PRESSURE (1.5 to 1.6"wc), CALL YOUR DEALER IMMEDIATELY TO
REPLACE YOUR FILTERS.
9.1
POSITIONING OF UNIT
Mounted on four casters, the unit can be wheeled virtually anywhere in the room for optimal convenience. The unit is designed in an up-flow
configuration allowing the air to create a "sweeping" effect across the room. The clean air is released from top of unit, moving across the room in a
downward motion. The clean air pushes particulate and gaseous matter towards the floor level and draws it in the intake grille located at bottom of
unit. This configuration allows the particles which have already accumulated towards the ground to be pulled towards the return air grille. This results
in a very effective means of space cleaning. The
Fresh-Air Purifier
is more efficient the closer it is placed to its intended source. Conversely, the
unit's efficiency is diminished as it is placed further from the source of pollutants.
9.3
REDUCTION IN AIRFLOW
The
AF Purifier
is designed to operate at a clean filter pressure of between 0.9 and 1.1". This reading can be observed on the pressure gauge
located in the control panel (while operating at HIGH speed). As the unit cleans the air, the filters are removing the particles of dust and dirt in the air
stream. As the filters accumulate dirt (both visible and microscopic), a restriction on the blower/motor is created. As the restriction becomes greater,
the air capacity delivered by the blower decreases rendering the unit less effective. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO CHANGE FILTERS ON A
REGULAR BASIS. The following is a chart showing the reduction in airflow as the filter restriction increases.
