This manual provides information for location,
installation, operation and service. Before
installation and use of the air cleaner, carefully read
these instructions to ensure maximum benefits from
the unit and to avoid needless service cost that can
result from improper installation.
I. INTRODUCTION
Air movement through the unit is controlled by its
own blower system. As dirty air enters the unit it
passes through a high density media material
which strips debris from the air and retains it in the
filter fibers while allowing clean air to be returned to
the room.

The 3 position control switch located on the side of
the unit controls the speed of the fan. (Lo-135 CFM;
Med.- 200 CFM; Hi-285 CFM Nominal).

your air cleaner. When the control switch (A) is in

delivered to the indicating light. If the on/off light
does not glow, the air cleaner is in need of
attention. (Refer to Troubleshooting, Page 4.)

The filter access latches located on the side of the
unit hold the access door closed and are designed
