THE SOLID STATE PERFORMANCE INDICATOR This electronic air cleaner is equipped with a special solid state circuit that operates the optional W8600E Solid State Performance Indicator (see photo). The W8600E Indicator must be ordered separately. The W8600E Indicator is designed to mount next to your thermostat, or in any convenient visible area (such [...]

You may hear a snapping (electrical arcing) sound occasionally as the air cleaner operates. This usually is caused by a larger dust particle causing a high voltage discharge. The snapping sound means that your air cleaner is working as it should. To hear the snapping sound, momentarily press the test button near the bottom of the door. Use the test[...]

If you don’t want the air cleaner to run, set the ON-OFF switch to OFF to turn off the air cleaner. Your furnace and air conditioner will still operate normally but without the added benefit of air cleaning. Normally, this switch should be ON at all times. 69-0376—4 4 M3261 O N O FF[...]

For greatest efficiency, the air cleaner should run all the time. To do this, set the fan switch on your thermostat to ON, and make sure the air cleaner is switched ON. The fan and air cleaner will run even when the furnace or air conditioner is off. NOTE: A manual fan switch may be built into the furnace or furnace fan controller. The air cleaner [...]

If your system includes an atomizing humidifier, you may want to install a standard furnace filter between the humidifier and the air cleaner. This filter would keep the humidifier spray mineral deposits from collecting on the air cleaner. This filter should be checked regularly and changed when it shows signs of mineral or dirt buildup. If you do [...]

CA UTION Sharp edges. Can cause personal injury. Handle the cell(s) carefully or wear protective gloves to avoid cuts from the sharp metal edges. To ensure optimum performance from the air cleaner, the cell(s) and prefilter(s) must be cleaned regularly—every one to six months. Washing frequency will vary depending on the number of family members,[...]

If you find that the WASH LED is coming on more frequently than the established schedule on the wash reminder schedule, you may have a buildup of residue on the ionizer wires. If the collector plates on the cell(s) look clean, you can try wiping the ionizer wires with a clean cloth instead of washing the entire cell. You might also consider whether[...]

CA UTION Burn hazard. Can cause personal injury. Allow the cell(s) to cool completely in the dishwasher at the end of the wash cycle or wear protective gloves to avoid burns. Hot water may accumulate in the tubes supporting the collector plates. Tip the cell(s) so these tubes drain. IMPORTANT • Check your dishwasher owner’s manual. Some manufac[...]

STEP 1 Put the cell(s) on the lower rack of the dishwasher with the airflow arrow pointing up. It may be necessary to remove the upper rack. Don’t block water flow to the upper arm, if provided on your dishwasher. If you are washing the prefilter(s) with the cell(s), place them where they won’t block the water flow to the electronic cell(s). HI[...]

11 69-0376—4 Washing the cell(s) in a tub NOTE: Always wash the cell(s) first, then the prefilter(s) to keep heavy lint on the prefilter from getting caught in the cell(s). STEP 1 Use a large enough container such as a laundry tub or trash container, to hold one or both cell(s). NOTE: Sharp corners on the cell(s) can scratch the surface of a bath[...]

Use the hand sprayer at a coin-operated do-it- yourself car wash to wash the cell(s) and prefilter(s). Hold the nozzle at least two feet away from the unit to avoid damage from the high pressure stream of water. Follow the same sequence of wash and rinse as recommended for cars. However, do not wax the cell(s) or the prefilter(s). Be sure to rinse [...]

STEP 5 Turn on the air cleaner. If the cell(s) and prefilter(s) are wet, the neon light may not come on and you may hear arcing. If the arcing is annoy- ing, simply turn off the air cleaner for 2 to 3 hours or until the cell(s) are dry. If your air cleaner has a Solid State Performance Indicator, the CHECK LED may come on if you install wet cell(s)[...]

The particles removed by the electronic air cleaner tend to be very small—less than 10 microns. But what is a 10 micron particle? The eye of an average size sewing needle is about 750 microns across, and the dot in the i in the word micron is about 400 microns. Generally, particles smaller than 10 microns can be seen only with a microscope, excep[...]

As the dirty air passes through the intense high voltage electric field surrounding the ionizer wires, all particles, even the smallest are given an electric cha[...]

The electronic air cleaner vs. the standard furnace filter Use a carbon filter to remove odors Air ionizers have been marketed with claims about purifying the air and promising medical benefits. It should be noted that supporting tests, if available, are controversial and incom- plete. Air ionizers can generate a bit of ozone, and of course some io[...]

Ozone and the electronic air cleaner 17 69-0376—4 Electronic air cleaners generate a very small amount of ozone, about 0.005 to 0.010 parts per million (ppm). The amount is highest when the air cleaner is new. The average person can detect the odor of ozone in concentrations as low as 0.003 to 0.010 ppm. The U.S. Food and Drug Admini- stration an[...]

White dust is made up of particles that settle out of the air before they get to the return air duct. You can help prevent this “white dust” from settling by running your fan constantly. Also, • Be sure the return registers are not blocked with furniture. • Be sure the discharge ducts are clean (best done before installing the air cleaner).[...]

If your air cleaner is equipped with the optional W8600E Indicator, the WASH and CHECK LEDs on the W8600E will remind you that a cell and prefilter washing is past due and tell you when the system isn’t operating properly. Whether or not your air cleaner has a Solid State Performance Indicator, perform these checks before you call your heating an[...]

1. Cell and prefilter washing is past due; wash as soon as possible. 2. Make sure cell(s) is correctly installed in air cleaner. 3. Wipe ionizer wires to remove deposits. NOTE: Use the wash reminder schedule on top of the air cleaner or furnace to establish a washing schedule that prevents the WASH LED from coming on. 1. Make sure cell(s) are clean[...]
