8. Spray the prefilter and after filter with DAX Detergent
and rinse well, applying water pressure against the
air flow direction. This pushes contaminate out of the
filter instead of forcing it through the filter..
9. To dry the cell and ionizer, tilt on a 45º angle against
wall with the direction arrow pointing sideways. Allow
to dry completely for at least 8 - 10 hours.
10. When the cells, ionizers, prefilters and after filters are
dry, install them back into the cabinet. The arrow on
the cell and ionizing section should point toward
the blower. The spring contact should line up
with the fibreboard on the back wall of the
cabinet. Close the door. If the cells arc when the fan
and power supply switches are turned on or if the
performance indicator light does not come on, then
the cells may still be wet. Allow more time for drying.
You can leave the cell and ionizer in the unit, turn the
fan switch ON and leave the power supply switch
turned OFF.
A cell placed in the air cleaner incorrectly can
burn out the power board.
Wear protective goggles, dust mask and gloves when
cleaning the inside of the cabinet. Always turn both the
fan and power supply switches OFF and turn OFF the
main breaker and lock out the unit before cleaning.
11. The high voltage contact boards inside the cabinet
need to be cleaned on a regular basis to insure a
good
contact
with
accumulation of contaminate behind the contact
board. Clean the contact disc and surrounding red
contact board with a dry cloth while the accumulation
behind the contact can be removed with dry
compressed air. Complete access to the back of the
contact boards can be made from the outside of the
cabinet by removing the small panels on the back
side of the unit. The high voltage wires near the
contact boards should be wiped when the contacts
are cleaned and inspected annually by a qualified
service technician for deterioration.
12. The accumulated contaminate under the cells and in
the blower compartment should be removed at least
twice a year with a vacuum. Dry compressed air can
be used to remove the dust in the switch box and
power box which houses the high voltage power
supply. Do not apply air pressure too close to the
components as this may damage them. Build up of
contaminates on the blower wheel and housing can
also be cleaned with dry compressed air. The motor
should also be blown off with dry compressed air or
vacuumed, particularly around the cooling fan intake
at the back of the motor.

CLEANING AND SERVICE
The use of DAX Detergent is recommended for cleaning
as it is a heavy duty solution used expressly for removal
of accumulated pollutants on cell plates. If used as
directed, DAX will not harm aluminum or steel if used as
directed. Any problem arising out of the use of another
cleaning agent will void the warranty.
DAX Detergent is available in 1 gallon (4.5 L) and 4.4
gallon (20L) containers, as well as 45 gallon drums (205
L).
SERVICE MAINTENANCE
1. Determine if the air cleaner is performing properly by
seeing that:
Fan switch is ON
Power Supply switch is ON
Performance indicator light is ON
2. The performance indicator light, when lit, shows that
the power board is functioning properly and should be
lit during normal operation. The light will flicker with
arcing in the cell or extinguish if the cell, ionizer or
power board is shorted.
3. If the performance indicator light fails to light, check
the cells to ensure they have been installed properly.
4. If the light still does not come on, remove the cells
and ionizers and close the door. Turn the unit on. If
the light now comes on inspect the cells or ionizers
for damage or water. Check the high voltage wires for
deterioration. Do not run the unit for more that 1
prevent
minute with the cell and ionizer removed. If the
light still is not on then the problem could be in the
light or the power board. Check the fuse on the power
board for continuity.
5. A simple test to ensure that the cell is in correctly and
there is high voltage to the cell is to take a long
plastic handle screwdriver and short the cell between
the frame of air cleaner and bolt head on the
porcelain insulators. Check both the cell and ionizer
for a spark. The fan and power supply switches
should be ON. Be sure to activate the safety interlock
switch before checking the voltage. CAUTION: You
are dealing with high voltage.
If in doubt and if cell is not collecting any carbon, tars
6.
or body shop dust, then consult your dealer or factory
service center. The installing dealer should have
sufficient knowledge to determine any problems.
