INTRODUCTION
- 3 -
The LR500 air purier is a personal air purier for
professional use on construction and industrial sites.
The air purier is based on patented technology from
Clair International AB. Pat. no. 515895
Dimensions and technical data
Height 230 mm Rated voltage 1N~230V/50Hz
Width 490 mm Rated power 120 W
Depth 380 mm Noise level 43/57/63 dB(A)
Weight 9.7 kg Leak-tightness IP44
TECHNICAL DATA
SAFETY
Always disconnect the power plug before perform-
ing any service and maintenance, for example when
replacing the lter.
The power outlet that the air purier is connected to
should have an earth fault breaker of (max) 30mA
tted in front of it.
FUNCTION
The air purier is based on a quiet-running fan with
high pressure capacity. The fan creates a vacuum in
two lter cassettes. The space where the vacuum is
created is extremely leak-tight. The air is drawn in
through both the lter cassettes. A pre-lter should
always be installed in front of the lter cassette. This
prolongs the life of the lter cassette. The system of
drawing air through two lters makes the product
extremely versatile.
Spent lters should be disposed of with care.
The recycling methods for the lters vary according to
municipal regulations and the way in which the lter
was used. If in doubt, the lter should be treated as
hazardous waste. If used in an area where asbestos is
handled, the product may only be used by qualied
staff members.
In the standard version, the outlet side is tted with a
125 mm tube spacer so that it can be connected to a
ue pipe or tube. A spacer connection is available as
an accessory for the inlet sides. This system makes it
possible to mix air from two air sources, for example
oxygenised air from outdoors.

Thanks to these spacer connections, positive or negative air pressure can easily be created in a room.
The air purier can be equipped with a variety of lter types.
Because of the air purier’s design, it can be used for a large variety of applications where the same lter is not
necessarily used on both sides of the air purier. For example, the H13 can be used for recirculation combined
with the cheaper H11 for connection to the outdoor air…

The air purier has three operating positions: 0-1-2-3-.
Connect the plug to a power outlet and turn the
switch to start the air purier.
The power outlet is only powered in the positions
1, 2 and 3. When the air purier is turned off, the
outlet is not powered.
OPERATION
For this reason, the power outlet can be used to
simultaneously switch several air puriers or hand
tools on or off, such as grinding machines, drilling
hammers etc. This means that the operation of
dust-generating machines can be interlocked with the
air purier’s operation (e.g. to create negative pressure
in the indoor space).

MAINTENANCE
TROUBLESHOOTING
Replacing the lter
When the air purier starts emitting a weak air ow,
the lter needs to be replaced.
The pre-lter can be cleaned using a vacuum cleaner
or similar equipment. The pre-lter can normally be
cleaned several times before replacing it.
The lter cassette cannot be cleaned without
destroying the lter class.
To replace the lter, loosen the screws on the top
of the air purier (one screw for each lter holder).
Then fold the lter holder outwards and replace
the lter.
To mount the lter, proceed in the reverse order.
Be careful with the seal mounted against the machine.
This seal should be cleaned when the lter is replaced.
Warning! Troubleshooting should generally be carried out by
the manufacturer, the manufacturer’s service representative or
another qualied professional (e.g. a qualied electrician).
Abnormal noise
- In the event of abnormal noise or vibrations,
switch off the machine immediately and make
sure the fault is repaired before the machine
is restarted. Contact El-Björn AB for consultation.

upright (with the handle upwards).
The machine and lter should be kept as dry as
possible.
The machine won’t start
- Check that the fuses in the nearest electrical
cabinet are intact.
- Check that the rotary switch is switched on.
The machine emits less air than usual
- Check that the lter is not blocked. See page 15,
“Replacing the lter”.
If the lter is blocked, replace the lter and
