WASHING THE ELECTRONIC CELLS AND
PREFILTER
- To maintain peak efficiency, the
electronic cells and prefilter in your electronic air
cleaner must be washed regularly with Air Quality
Engineering’s Detergent Concentrate. Washing is
necessary to remove dirt particles collected from
the air. The intake grille may be removed from the
machine for periodic washing. A wash kit is
available from Air Quality Engineering.
1. Fill wash tub with cell cleaning detergent
and hot water per detergent
manufacturer’s
instructions.
2. Immerse cells in the cleaner solution and
remove immediately (see Figure 17).
Figure 17: Cell Washing Tub
3. Set cells aside for five minutes to allow the
cleaner to penetrate.
4. Thoroughly rinse cells with very hot water.
Make certain no residue remains.
5. Inspect collector plates for cleanliness.
Repeat wash procedure, if necessary.
6. Using AQE Cell Coat (PN 45023) will allow
better release of contaminant when washing.
7. Check the electronic cells for broken wires and
bent collector plates. The cells may be
installed in the air cleaner and energized. The
indicator light may remain off during the
normal two hour drying time. However, if
annoying arcing occurs during this period, the
cell may be removed to dry.
8. CELL CLEANER IS REUSABLE. SAVE FOR
REPEATED USE. Replace cleaning solution
when cells are no longer being effectively
cleaned.
9. Remove lint from prefilter with vacuum cleaner
or wash with mild detergent solution.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION!
1.
BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL WHEN
WORKING WITH THE ELECTRONIC
CELLS AND FILTERS. The edges of the
cells and filter, and the collection plates
and ionizing wires of the cell may be
sharp.
2.
When cleaning the cells and filters, be
sure to wear appropriate protective gear,
especially goggles and gloves. Skin
contact with alkaline detergent solution
should be avoided. See warning label on
detergent.
