PSH Series Model
the PSH system can consist of one or more modules.
each module represents an independent collection
system of two ionizers and two collector cells in
series with a power pack enclosure. the power pack
enclosure indicator light is the reference in determining
the module status. the indicator light illuminated
represents a working module, usually within high
voltage specifications. an indicator light flashing or not
illuminated exhibits an abnormal condition.

10.1 Tools Required
• Multimeter
• High voltage probe accessory for the multimeter
• High voltage test cables (2), 3’ in length with test clips
at each end
• Basic hand tools
• One power pack* (UAS Part Number 21-1216) for
bench testing.
• AC cable with three prone plug (for the wall
receptacle), opposing end of cable should have two
connectors for the power pack and a test clip for the
ground wire. the ground wire should be secured to
the ground stud on the power pack.
* A power pack can be utilized from one of the
modules.
10.2 Perform Before Troubleshooting
the following should be checked to the module(s)
in which the indicator light(s) is flashing or is not
illuminated. corrections should be completed and parts
replaced.
• Toggle switch is in the on position to the power
pack enclosure.
• Check adjustment of the push rod which engages
the interlock switch refer to Section 9.5 “adjusting
Push rods”.
• Proper electrical alignment to the ionizers and
collector cell components, refer figure 5, correct if
necessary.
• The proper numbers of ionizers and collector cells
are installed to the module.
• Ionizer and collector cells have a moderate to
extreme contaminant build up, manually clean the
components.
• Ionizer wires and tension springs missing or
broken, remove broken wires/springs from the
drain sump and or the unicell components
• Ionizer standoffs, cell triangular and/or door feed
through insulators display moderate to extreme
contaminant build up, broken or carbon tracked
insulators, (imbedded black streak which cannot
be removed by cleaning, replace insulator) clean
or replace ionizers and collector cells.
10.3 Troubleshooting Procedure
each power pack enclosure is equipped with an
interlock switch for the power pack 120 Vac circuit.
Since the power pack enclosure lid cover is open for
troubleshooting the interlock switch should be engaged
(manually or by other means) after placing the toggle
switch in the on position and disengaged when placing
the toggle switch in the off position.
