Unless  otherwise  specified,  the  water  wash  supply 

should be hot 

(140°F recommended - WATER 

HEATER NOT SUPPLIED BY TRION

®

)

 at the volume 

specified for the given unit, and at a full flow pressure 

between 40 and 50 psig measured at header.

Although not required, a pressure gage and a manual 

service valve are recommended as shown in the 

plumbing schematic (separate from this manual). The 

components should be located within the system to 

provide for service access.

7.   Mount Control Panel

The control panel should be mounted indoors (unless 

supplied with a weatherproof enclosure), at eye 

level, and located as close to the ESP as practical. 

Allow  sufficient  space  in  front  of  the  access  door(s) 

for service. Refer to appropriate control panel outline 

drawing for mounting hole layout and dimensions.

8.   Complete Wiring

a.   

Primary Wiring

: The control panel is the main 

distribution point for all primary wiring. The various 

electrical components involved are connected to 

and powered from the control panel.

b.   

Grounding

: An earth ground must be provided 

to the Grease Viper cabinet and control panel. All 

ground connections must be in contact with bare 

metal and securely affixed. Ground conductor size 

and connection means will be in accordance with 

all applicable electrical code standards.

WARNING

Precautions should be taken in the event the water 

supply, detergent piping, and drains are subjected to 

freezing temperatures: 1) All plumbing components 

– backflow preventer, ‘Y’ strainer, pressure gauge, 

solenoid valve(s), detergent system, drain valve, 

and  air  gap  fitting  -  must  be  installed  indoors  or 

in a heated mechanical room in accordance with 

the plumbing schematic to prevent freezing. 2) All 

piping exposed to cold climate outdoor conditions 

should be heat traced and insulated to prevent 

freezing. 3) An air gap fitting should be installed on 

the drain line to facilitate gravity draining of wash 

water from the internal headers and manifolds. 

4) The water supply line should be pitched back 

toward the heated space.

9.   Check Out for System Start-up

When the installation has been completed, assure 

that the equipment is ready for start-up by checking 

the following:

•  All construction debris has been removed from the 

ionizing-collecting cells, drain basin and ductwork.

•  The inside of the control panel and detergent tank 

are clear of any foreign materials.

•  The drain lines from the Grease Viper drain basins 

are clear and completely connected to their point 

of termination.

•  All piping is completed to the manifold headers 

and wash water is available.

•  Supply line power is available and electrical wiring 

is completed to the following components:

a.   Control Panel

b.   Solenoid Valve(s)

c.   Detergent Pump Motor

d.   Electrical Interlocks

e.   Power Supplies for Ionizing-Collecting Cells

f.    Exhaust Fan

FOR THE MAINTENANCE ENGINEER

1.   Introduction and Principle of Operation

The TRION

®

 electronic air cleaner is technically known 

as an Electrostatic Precipitator (ESP). In this type of 

equipment, all airborne particles, even of microscopic 

size, are electrically charged (positively) as they 

pass through a high voltage ionizer. These charged 

NOTE

Do not add the initial supply of detergent into the 

detergent tank - this is to be done after volume 

settings are adjusted at start-up.

Operation & Service

WARNING

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

These servicing instructions are for use by 

qualified  personnel  only.  To  reduce  the  risk  of 

electric shock, do not perform any servicing other 

than that contained in the operating instructions 

unless you are qualified to do so.
