Part Number: FG0278

If there is any visible external damage to
the pallet or box, note this on the shippers
paperwork prior to accepting the delivery. If the
contents of the pallet are visibly damaged, refuse
to accept the shipment and advise Air-Care
immediately. Remove the outer box and inspect
for damage.
Report all damage immediately to your carrier. If
special set-up instructions are required, they will
be taped to the outside of the equipment or in
the “Operating” section of this manual. Inspect
all of the packing material for small parts before
discarding packaging material.

The pre-filter has three layers of cleaning. This
filter collects most of the larger particles that
enter the purifier.
This captures many larger
particulates using static electricity to capture
the particles.
This layer captures
additional particles.

The HEPA Filter included in your purifier is a
medical grade filter used in hospitals and oth-
er medical facilities due to its ability to remove
99.97% of dust, pollen, mold, and bacteria down
to .3 microns. (Part Number F60189)

1. Place the unit in the desired location
2. Before operating the unit, check to see if the fan
speed knob is in the OFF POSITION
2. Plug one end of the electrical cord to the socket
in the back of the Triton 440
3. Place the other end of the electrical cord into an
electrical outlet
4. Turn the speed knob clockwise to your desired
fan speed setting.
use safe and common sense precautions when working with Air-Care equipment. Do not
block walkways with equipment. Remove delicate and breakable articles from the immediate work
area. The following are precautions that should be reviewed by all persons who will be involved in the
cleaning activity.
• Other than the filters, there are no user serviceable components in the Triton 440. Only trained
technicians should attempt to make internal repairs on this equipment.
• Always turn o the main power switch on the control panel, or disconnect the power before opening
or removing the back or removing the filters from the Triton 440.
• Be sure all power cords and electrical extensions are rated to meet or exceed the original Air-Care
power cords (12 gauge), and inspect all AC power plug to be sure the Ground Pin is in place.
• Never connect power to Air-Care equipment unless all covers, and safety shields are in place.
Mechanical and electrical parts.
• Never allow anyone except a properly trained technician to use the equipment or/and cleaning
products.
• All Air-Care equipment is designed for US standard 115 volt, 60 Hz AC. Most Air-Care equipment
can be special ordered to meet other worldwide standards for a reasonable price and delivery
schedule. Always check the specifications on the equipment before connecting electrical power
to Air-Care equipment. The Triton 440 can be special quoted for 220 Volt 50 Hz but may incur
additional costs and may not provide the same performance as the 60 Hz model.

The Triton 440 circulates ambient air through its filter
system and exhausts clean air into that environment.
The Triton 440 is small enough to be placed
inconspicuously in a corner of a room or beside a
piece of furniture and quiet enough to not hinder
normal conversation.
Multiple units and be used larger areas to distribute
the filtration without requiring ducting in the room.
There are only a few universal regulations or
standards, but to say it is all guesswork is not at all
true. On a construction site where large amounts of
fine dust are generated, it would be expected that the
workers would be wearing eye protection as well as
some type of respirator to protect their lungs. If the
site was adjacent to an oice with a full sta, it would
The size and number of machines depends on the volume of the space being cleaned as well as how
many Air Changes per Hour (ACH) are required by local regulation. As a starting point, calculate the
square footage of the room or rooms, multiply by the ceiling height. It is generally recommended to
have 3 to 4 air changes per hour in occupied areas
10’ X 10’ X 8’ = 600 CUBIC FEET = 32 EXCHANGES OF AIR PER HOUR
20’ X 20’ X 8’ = 3200 CUBIC FEET = 8 EXCHANGES OF AIR PER HOUR
20’ X 40’ X 8’ = 6400 CUBIC FEET = 4 EXCHANGES OF AIR PER HOUR
30’ X 40’ X 8’ = 9600 CUBIC FEET = 3 EXCHANGES OF AIR PER HOUR

To calculate the required CFM to filter the air in a room that is 15 feet wide by 40 feet long with an
8-foot ceiling, plug in the size of the room in the formulas for either 3 or 4 air changes per hour (ACH)
As the filters become loaded, the eective cfm will drop slightly, so be sure you have a little more capacity
than the minimum.
Air Purifiers may be required to circulate and filter the air within one or more of the contaminated areas to
be collect contaminates as they are released into the air, as well as making certain there are no “dead spots”
in the contained area where there could be a contaminate buildup.
be unthinkable to start the work without a temporary
barrier of plastic sheeting to prevent the dust from
covering the occupants and the oice equipment. If
the dust was potentially toxic and the particles were
too small to be seen by the naked eye, even more
protection for both the workers and the adjacent
occupants would be required. This is the basic
reason, it is necessary to filter the air in the work area,
and to put that contaminated area in a “Negative
Pressure” condition.
The size and number of machines depends on the
volume of the space being cleaned as well as how
many Air Changes per Hour (ACH) are required by
local regulation. As a starting point, calculate the
square footage of the room or rooms, multiply by the
ceiling height. It is generally recommended to have
3 to 4 air changes per hour in occupied areas. To
convert this requirement to a Cubic Feet per Minute
(CFM) spec for the Air Purifier, multiply the Volume of
the work area by 4 (or 3) changes/Hour then divide by
60 Minutes/Hour.

The outside of your purifier should be cleaned
occasionally with germicidal soap and water.
The prefilter/filter pad will most likely be the part
that is contaiminated the quickest as it traps
larger particulates in the air.
It is recommended that you wear protective
clothing and gloves as this filter will most likely
be very dirty with captured contaminants.
1. Remove the polypropylene mesh
2. Remove the dirty pad and dispose
3. Insert new pad and return the polypropylene
mesh.
