American Standard Electronic Air Cleaner 사용자 설명서

For peak efficiency, the Electronic Cells in
your Air Cleaner should be washed
regularly (between one and six months).
This is necessary to remove the deposits
of dirt particles collected while running.
Experience will be the best indicator of
how often the cells should be washed.

1. At the thermostat, place the system

switch to OFF and the fan switch to
AUTO to assure that the air system will
not turn on while cleaning.

2. Push the Electronic Air Cleaner power

switch to the “OFF” position. Unplug
power cord at the wall before removing
the Electronic Cells. If you are not
familiar with this equipment, contact
your installer or dealer.

3. Turn the latches on the power door 1/4

turn (open position) to unlock and
remove the power door.

4. Remove the Pre-filter.

5. Slide the Electronic Cells out.

The dirt on the Electronic Cells can be
removed by soaking in a strong solution of
dishwasher detergent.

1. Use a container large enough to hold

the Electronic Cells, such as a large
plastic dishpan, trash container, or
laundry tub.

2. Use an automatic dishwasher deter-

gent in hot water. All major brands
worked well in tests.

NOTE: Depending on the minerals in the

water in your area, some brands of
dishwasher detergent may form a
precipitate of scum. If a noticeable
scum floats to the surface, try another
brand of detergent.

3. Pour into the container about 3/4 cup

of detergent per cell. A bit more if the
container is much larger than the cell.
Pour in enough very hot water to
cover the cells.

4. After the detergent has completely

dissolved, put the cells in to soak.

5. Soak the cells and pre-filter for 15 to 20

minutes; slosh up and down, or around
several times, and remove.

6. Rinse the cells and pre-filter with a fine

lower pressure spray.

7. Soak the cells (only)  in clean hot water

for another 5 to 15 minutes.

8. Remove the cells and let drain for 15 to

20 minutes. If the water draining from
the cells feels slippery, the cells need
more rinsing.

9. Inspect the cells for cleanliness. If any

dirt remains, repeat the washing
procedure until clean.

10. Replace the cells and pre-filter into the

Air Cleaner when dry.

NOTE: If washing must be repeated, this is

an indication that washing should be
performed more frequently.

NOTE: A guide key in the Air Cleaner

cabinet will allow the Electronic Cells to
fit into the cabinet in only one position -
with the arrow pointing in the direction
of airflow.

1. Position cells correctly and slide them

into place.

2. Insert the Pre-filter in the channel

provided for it.

3. Replace the power door. Turn the

latches 1/4 turn to secure the door.

4. Restore all power previously discon-

nected - See Item #2 under Removing
The Electronic Cells And Pre-filter

5. Push the Electronic Air Cleaner switch

to the “ON” position.

During normal maintenance, the air flow
sensor tube may require cleaning to
remove any accumulated dirt and dust.

To clean the tube, gently push a soft pipe
cleaner into the tube above and below the
printed circuit board. Gently blow into the
tube to remove loosened dirt.

Clean above and
below circuit
board in 
air flow
tube.

Cleaning the Ionizing Wires

Ionizing wires may become coated
causing loss of cleaning ability by the
collecting cell and should be cleaned, at
least, annually.

The thin ionizing wires are sharp and
fragile. Use care when wiping the wires
with the pencil eraser to avoid personal
injury or broken wires. If an Ionizing wire
breaks, refer to “Replacing An Ionizing
Wire”.

Using a pencil eraser, wipe each ionizing
wire, exercising care to avoid damage to
them.
