Cleaning the Gross Particle Filter

Clean the gross particle filter on the back of the oxygen generator enclosure every
week, or more frequently if site conditions warrant. A clean filter allows the unit to
cool properly.
Use the following procedure to clean the gross particle filter:
1) Shut down the oxygen generator as described in Section 6.3 — Shutdown.
2) Remove the filter, and insert the second filter provided with the unit.
3) Restart the unit as described in Section 6.1 — Start-up.
4) Wash the filter removed from the unit in a solution of soap and warm water.
5) Rinse the filter thoroughly and remove excess water with a soft, absorbent
towel.
6) Allow the filter to dry, and then store it in a clean location. Alternate the clean
filter with the filter on the unit each time you perform this procedure.
