    It is important to identify a wall or track-light location where the output of Air/Q 310 can use, rather than fight, the natural air currents in a room. 2. Air currents in a room are determined by using a SMOKE TEST KIT available from Prolitec or any source of smoke or vapor, such as a candle or match.

  • Page 12 Installation Step 3 – Position the Mounting Bracket Place the mounting bracket directly over the power outlet (if hardwired or plugged elsewhere, position the mounting bracket to the side of the power source). Use the level to make sure the mounting bracket is horizontal. While holding the bracket level, use a pointy tool, screw or screwdriver to mark the location of the top two wall anchors.
  • Page 13 Installation Step 4 – Installing the Top Anchors Set the mounting bracket aside. Use an electric drill to make a " hole at the exact location you marked. This will serve as a guide for the anchors. Use a hammer to tap the anchors in far enough so they stay well in position.

  • Page 15 Installation NOTE: Remember that the standard installation is to position the appliance right over the power source, storing the power-supply block and the power cord in the recess in the back of the appliance (US version only). To make this easy, do not untie the power cord and take just enough wire to make the connection.
  • Page 16 Installation Step 10 – Mounting the Appliance in Place Now unlock and open the door and insert the long round-head screws into the holes in the lower corners and into the anchors. Tighten the screws firmly.

    Applications The Prolitec approach to odor remediation uses a proprietary and patented neutralizer that inhibits the human olfactory system from detecting the odor and then injecting a small amount of scent to create an ultra-low concentration in the air of less than 1 ppm. This approach is unique and much more effective than tradi- tional approaches that simply douse the odor with a high concentration of scent.
