Filter Overview; Ec Motor/Fan Overview - Oransi ERIK650A User Manual

Power Switch – the Off/Reset switch at the back of the air purifier serves two
purposes: it controls power to the unit and works as a circuit breaker. To operate
the air purifier the reset/On side of the switch must be pressed down. There is no
light with this switch so it will not illuminate when on. This is to keep the unit from
generating light if used in a bedroom.

Filter Overview.

Combination Pre-Filter – The pre-filter is a combination MERV15 particulate
filter and treated GAC (granular activated carbon). Our proprietary treated
coconut carbon filter (GAC) removes a wide variety of gases such as VOC's,
smoke, formaldehyde, ozone, smog, and combustion gases. This filter should be
replaced with every 9-12 months of use.
Main HEPA Filter – The main HEPA filter is rated at 99.99% at 0.3 microns.
This filter should be replaced with every 24-36 months of use.

EC Motor/fan overview

!
EC Motor/Fan.
When you selected the ERIK Air Purifier you chose the latest and best German
engineered motor available. EC (Electrically Commutated) motors use
electronics to convert the AC voltage to DC to run the motor.
EC Advantages
More efficient and use up to 90% less power.
•
More reliable since it runs cooler.
•
More compact.
•
Quieter - no motor hum that you can get with an AC motor.
•
Why does the motor/fan start and stop more slowly than an AC motor? EC
motors have a soft start programmed into the motor to limit the start-up current
the motor draws (there are electronics built into the motor). The ramp down after
power is removed is only a function of the inertia of the fan and the friction of the
bearing system. A high quality bearing system will take longer to slow down and
stop since the friction is minimized (alignment is better, lubricant is better, etc.).
