2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The AS-1000 is a portable, electrically powered Air Filtration machine, 

designed and manufactured by DIAMAPRO SYSTEMS®. The machine’s 

function is to filter air and remove suspended airborne particulates.

This unit has a three stage filtering system. The Pre-Filter stage captures 

the bulk of the dust and debris. The second stage utilizes a two-ply Ring 

Filter that captures any dust and dirt able to penetrate the Pre-Filter. The 

final stage is the 99.97% - 0.3 micron HEPA Filter or the 5 micron general 

purpose filter. The HEPA filter is utilized in abatement work or areas where 

an extremely high level of filtration is desired. The general purpose filter is 

utilized when trying to reduce visible air born particulates that are deemed 

non hazardous.

The AS-1000 requires a 110/115V - 10 Amp, single phase power source.

DO NOT USE CIRCUITS EXCEEDING SPECIFIED 

VOLTAGE. HIGHER VOLTAGE WILL DAMAGE 

CONTROLS AND COULD CAUSE SHOCK OR FIRE 

HAZARD.

3. ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

Inspect the unit for any loose or damaged parts prior to use.

CAUTION:

Be sure power supply is in the OFF position 

prior to inspection!

A. 

Clean the surfaces of the unit to remove accumulated dust or dirt. Do 

not use petroleum distillates, solvents, or thinners as cleaning agents. 

Remove any accumulated dust and dirt from control panel.

B. 

Periodic checks should be made of the filter brackets to ensure 

thumbscrews and knobs are secure.

C. 

Filters should be checked daily and replaced if needed. This will help 

ensure proper air flow and extend motor life.

D. 

Inspect ALL power connection. Be sure that the recessed plug is secure 

to the panel. If recessed plug is not secured, electrical shock or shortage 

may occur.

E. 

Inspect your power cords connections for breaks, scorched areas, 

melting, oxidation, or signs of wear. If cord shows ANY of these signs, 

replace.

CAUTION:

Do not tamper with or modify the blower housing, control 

panel, drive motor, or wiring scheme. Tampering or modifications 

could result in premature wear or failure and will void factory 

warranty

CONTROL DESCRIPTIONS

1. Power Switch

Switch used to turn on your AS-1000. Select either high or low set-

tings depending on the desired volume of air to be filtered.

2. Circuit Breaker

This is attached to the units main power supply to assist in protecting 

the blower motor from power surges. The circuit breaker also helps 

protect the operator against electrical shock or hazards.

3. Differential Pressure Gauge

This is used to determine filter efficiency. The DPG measures nega

-

tive pressure on the clean side of the filters. As the Filters load with 

dust and debris, the negative pressure will increase and move the 

needle of the DPG. A new filter will register 1.0-1.2” of water column. 

A fully loaded filter will register approximately 1.6”-1.8”” of water 

column.

4. Barbed Fitting

Inlet used to measure pressure of surrounding ambient air.

5. Male Recessed Plug

Firmly insert the female end of a proper gauge extension cord to 

power the machine.

CAUTION:

 A

 loose, corroded, ill fitted or damaged extension cord 

can cause pre-mature failure and void your warranty.

6. Audible Alarm - (Optional Feature)

Audibly alerts the operator when filters are loaded or when air flow is 

greatly decreased. The alarm will sound once the pressure gauge 

reaches 1.6”-1.8” of water column.

7. Visual Light - (Optional Feature)

Visually alerts the operator when filters are loaded or when air flow 

is greatly decreased. The alarm will light once the pressure gauge 

reaches 1.6”-1.8” of water column
