Turning Vanes

If the air cleaner is installed adjacent to a 90_ duct elbow, add

turning vanes (see Fig. 6) inside the duct to improve air

distribution across the face of the air cleaner . Failure to follow this

recommendation can reduce the efficiency of the Electronic Air

Cleaner .

Select Location for Air Cleaner

Remember to select a location that is readily accessible for periodic

inspection and cleaning of this air cleaner. Allow a minimum of

24” (610 mm) clearance in front and 12” (305 mm) clearance

above the air cleaner for component removal and service space.

Planning the Installation

Application

Air cleaners are used in forced air heating cooling and ventilating

systems. The air cleaner should be installed in the system so that all

the system air is circulated through the air cleaner. The air cleaner

will only remove the airborne contaminants delivered to it.

Maximum performance is obtained when the system blower is set

for continuous operation.

Installation Requirements

The best location for the air cleaner is in the return air duct next to

the blower compartment. In this location, the blower motor and

cooling coils will be kept clean.

UNIT OPERATION AND SAFETY HAZARD

Failure to follow this caution may result in reduced airflow

and potential operating problems.

Do not install the air cleaner in the discharge air duct.

CAUTION

Before installing the air cleaner, consider the application and type

of HVAC system present. See Fig. 7 for the most common types. If

a transition between the ductwork and air cleaner is required, refer

to section entitled Transitions and Fig. 5. The unit must be readily

accessible for periodic inspection and cleaning of the prefilters and

electronic cells to maintain maximum efficiency and trouble--free

operation.

Air Conditioning

The air cleaner should be installed upstream of the cooling coil.

This will keep the coil clean and reduce air conditioning coil

maintenance. Improved cooling efficiency is the result and directly

affects energy costs. A clean coil will reduce utility costs.

Humidifiers

An evaporative humidifier can be mounted upstream of the air

cleaner . It is best to install an atomizing humidifier downstream of

the air cleaner because hard water salt deposits and water droplets

may damage the air cleaner.
