ARCING

 

From time to time, you may hear a snapping 
noise coming from the electronic air cleaner. 
This arcing occurs when the air cleaner collects 
an unusually large particle or when the cells are 
wet, extra-ordinarily dirty or damaged. 

 

 

 

Check circuit fuse or breaker. Correct if fuse is 
blown or breaker is tripped. 

 

Be sure the electronic cells are in place, the 
intake grille is closed and the unit is turned on. 

If an unusual amount of arcing persists, check 
first to determine if the electronic cells need 
washing. Look also for any sign of bent collector 
plates or broken ionizer wires. 

 

If arcing still occurs when the cell is clean and 
dry, consult your Air Quality Engineering, Inc., 
representative or dealer for repair. 

 

PROBLEM 1 

 

FAN OFF 

LAMP OFF 

 

1.  Make sure the supply cord 
is plugged into a standard 
receptacle. 

 

2.  Make sure there is voltage 
to the receptacle by  using 
any other electric device. 

 

3.  Make sure the top access 
cover is properly in place in 
order to actuate the interlock 
switch. 

PROBLEM 2 

 

FAN ON 

LAMP OFF 

 

1.  If the fan is on and the 
light is out, the problem is 
with the electronic cell or high 
voltage power supply. 

 

2. To determine which 
component is 

faulty… 

- Remove the electronic cell, 
and operate the air cleaner. 
If the light does not come on, 
then the high voltage power 
supply will have to be 
replaced. 

 

3.  If the indicator light does 
come one, the problem is 
with the electronic cell. 
Check the cell for: 

a.  Bent collector plates. 
Straighten and space the 
plates using a needle 
nose pliers. 
b.  Check for missing 
ionizer wires.  Replace 
the missing wires. 
c. Check for dirty buildup 
on the collector plates 
and the insulators.  Wash 
the cell thoroughly. 

PROBLEM 3 

 

FAN OFF 

LAMP ON 

 

1.  Check the motor on all 
three speeds. Be certain that 
the control buttons are 
pushed in all the way. 

 

2.  If the light is on and the 
fan is off. The motor will 
have to be replaced.
