1.1. YOUR PERSONAL AIR DECONTAMINATION PLANT
Congratulations!
With the Calistair C300 you have purchased a high-performance system that uses the innovative
Calistair Technology to destroy microorganisms, gases and volatile organic compounds. It is able
to clean your room air of almost all air pollutants and thus make a considerable contribution to
your general well-being.
1. PRODUCT OVERVIEW
1.2. MODE OF OPERATION
The Calistair C300 is a decontamination plant with a highly effective technology for air
decontamination.
On the surface of the specially coated reactor honeycomb plates inside the device, UVC radiation
from the lamps stimulates a catalytic reaction. This reaction causes organic compounds such
as harmful gases, bacteria, viruses, fungal spores and unpleasant odorous substances to be
decomposed at molecular level and be thus neutralised.
This technology ensures a very high performance even with pollutants where conventional lter
air puriers or pure UV air clariers fail. For example the elimination of formaldehyde from the
breathing air, which many pieces of furniture or oor coverings release over time.
The prelter on the underside lters coarse particles from the air, such as house dust, uff or
hair. This means that the interior of the device remains largely free of coarse dust.
With the high-performance lter, the room air can also be cleaned of ne dusts, allergens and
mineral air pollutants such as soot particles.

1.5. LOCATION SELECTION
When selecting a suitable location, consider the following factors for an optimal result to
improve air quality:
• The device should be at least 20 cm away from the wall or other objects on all sides so that
the air intake is not disturbed.
• The device should have at least 50 cm free space at the top so that the air can be blown off
undisturbed.
• The system should be placed on a stable, dry and level surface in such a way that neither
the device nor the power cable presents a tripping hazard.
• The control panel and housing cover should be easily accessible.
• The air should be able to circulate more or less unhindered in the room.
1.4. INDOOR AIR QUALITY
Air quality is an essential factor for general well-being and can have a major impact on health,
power of concentration and performance. An air purier can signicantly improve indoor air
quality, but should not be the only measure to do so. In principle, the following additional
measures are recommended to improve air quality:
• Always ensure that there is a sufcient supply of fresh air so that there is enough oxygen
(O2) in the air you breathe and that the carbon dioxide concentration (CO2) does not become
too high, as this can lead to fatigue and impair the ability to concentrate.
• If possible, ensure that the air humidity is between 40 % and 60 %, as excessively dry air
can lead to irritated mucous membranes and eyes, which among other things increases
susceptibility to infection.
• Eliminate or reduce possible causes of air pollution or pollutants as much as possible.
• Ensure that the measures for fresh air supply and air treatment are appropriate for the size
of the room. It may be necessary to use several devices.

2. COMMISSIONING

Fig. 2
Fig. 3
2.1. USE
Before commissioning, make sure that the
device is completely assembled and free of
damage.
A. Place device at a suitable location.
B. Connect power cable to device (Fig. 1).
C. Connect power plug to a grounded socket.
D. Switch on device (Fig. 2).
E. Select air ow via adjustment wheel
(Fig. 3).
Use the power switch to turn off the
device completely when not in use,
otherwise the UVC uorescent tubes will
continue to glow, reducing their life.
NOTE
The air performance of the device
depends, among other things, on the
degree of saturation of the lters and
can therefore decrease over time. It is
therefore essential that you observe the
necessary maintenance intervals.

3.1. CLEANING THE DEVICE
Only clean the outside of the device if necessary. Observe the following instructions for external
cleaning:
• Switch off the device and unplug the power plug from the socket.
• Only use a dry or minimally moistened cloth.
• Do not use aggressive or abrasive cleaning agents, since this can damage the surfaces.
• Always make sure that no moisture enters the device.
Due to the prelter and the sterilising technology, neither cleaning nor disinfection should
normally be necessary inside.
3.2. MAINTENANCE INTERVALS
To ensure smooth operation of your device, certain wear parts must be checked at and / or
replaced at regular intervals:
• Depending on the environment, the prelter must be checked at regular intervals. Therefore,
check the degree of saturation of the prelter after approx. 3 months at the latest and
replace the prelter before it is completely saturated.
How quickly the prelter saturates depends among others on the following factors:
- performance level of the air purier
- amount of dust in the environment
- amount of textiles or carpets in the environment
- number of people and animals in a room
- number of air puriers in a room
• If the device is used daily, the high-performance lter (HEPA lter) must be replaced after
approx. one year at the latest. Replace the high performance lter before it is completely
saturated.
• UVC uorescent tubes are subject to natural ageing. If used daily, they must be replaced
after one year at the latest, otherwise the germicidal effect is no longer guaranteed, even if
the UVC uorescent tubes are still visibly illuminated.
• For all maintenance work, it is recommended that you wear work gloves and a face mask for
self-protection.
