The number and size of the ionization tubes used is dependent upon the airflow, size of the space, and severity of the pollution and odors. The AtmosAir Matterhorn series equipment is designed for minimal maintenance efforts. The Matterhorn series has two components that require inspection and maintenance: 1.
Installation AtmosAir Matterhorn series equipment can be mounted in a duct or air handler wall, using the faceplate mounting flange and its weather-strip gasket; or inside a plenum using a semi-custom mounting bracket. The units operate best when located after all filters, coils, and fans. Various mounting arrangements are possible;...
Field electrical connection, 3-wire to junction box or country specific cord-set. Each Matterhorn series unit is typically shipped with a 3m power cord with a C13 Computer Type connector on one end and a Chinese CHI-10P Style 3 Prong plug on the other end. The plug can...
The maintenance requirements on an AtmosAir system are mainly site dependent; a dirtier environment requires more frequent maintenance. In general, quarterly or bi-annual maintenance is recommended along with a tube replacement every two years. The local AtmosAir dealer can provide you with an annual service contract.
If all external sources of failure are eliminated, the system should be serviced by a qualified AtmosAir technician. If the correct power is being supplied, the next step is to determine the cause of the failure, or blown...

Otherwise, replace the damaged tube(s), clean and smooth any mounting plate or end cap carbon tracking, and return the system to service. ~~DO NOT open the enclosure, as this will void any warranties. ~~ If the cause of failure cannot be determined, please contact AtmosAir for further help.

Tube Installation Instructions 1. Ensure that all mains power is disconnected from the unit. 2. Carefully remove tubes from packing and check that the tube is free of damage such as cracking or a loose cap-to-dielectric connection. 3. Inspect the outer metal mesh and adjust, if possible, to maintain a 1.25cm distance from the end cap.

Tube Removal Instructions 3. Ensure that all mains power is disconnected from the unit. 4. Gently pull the conductor strap back far enough to allow the tube to turn freely. 5. Unscrew the tube from the tube-holder. It is important to hold the tube only by the end cap, not the core or mesh, when first loosening the tube.
Tube Cleaning Instructions It may be beneficial to clean the tubes to improve performance, by removing dirt and grease from the tube and mesh where it impairs the ability to generate the plasma for ion creation. The tubes can be cleaned using an air compressor for a quick clean, or more thoroughly with cleaning solutions.
