GETTING STARTED
Initial set-up
1. Open all cartons and locate inlet, hose, hose clamps and wheels.Refer to Table 1 for the applicable part
numbers for your model.
2. Remove ALL filters and packing materials from cartons and the unit cabinet.
3. Place the unit on its side and install wheels in the bottom plate.
4. Attach the inlet to the top of the lid with the six screws provided.
5. Remove plastic wrap from gas/odor filter.
6. Carefully remove perforated cardboard from top and bottom of FA201D filter to expose “Green” media.
7. Place FA201D gas/odor filter into bottom of cabinet (NOTE: Pay attention to direction of airflow arrow).
8. Place the FA103 pre-filter on top of the gas/odor filter.
9. Close and latch the lid.
10. Attach power cord to the power receptacle located on the lower rear of the cabinet.
Locating the air cleaner
Placing the GS1-100 unit as close as possible to the pollution source reduces the amount of ducting needed,
reduces back-pressure, lowers power consumption, and improves overall performance. Placement should
minimize hose length and the number of bends. Use capture hoods with high efficiency entry whenever
possible. The unit exhausts through the bottom panel make sure to allow for adequate ventilation.
Inlet hose attachment
The GS1-100 unit ships standard with a 1 x 2”, 2 x 2” or 1 x 3” inlet. Attach flex hose over the metal air inlet tube
and tighten securely with the stainless-steel clamp. Connect the hose to a Fumex suction hood or place as close
as possible to the pollution source.
Electric power
GS1-100 unit series is manufactured with a universal blower/motor assembly (90-250/1/50-60) and must only use
a 10-Amp fuse. Default power cord/plug is US (120V). Contact Fumex for additional information or options.
Confirm that correct power supply is available.

CONTROLS
On/Off Switch
Simple one touch controls – The green light above the POWER button will illuminate confirming power to the
unit.
Blower/Fan
The GS1-100 unit utilizes a variable speed blower with three speed settings. Press the up and down arrow
buttons to increase/decrease blower speed. A green light next to the specific speed (Low, Med, or High) will
indicate speed setting. In the case of a blower failure, all 3 blower speed lights will flash. To reset the blower’s
internal thermal protection, disconnect the unit momentarily from its power source and reconnect. If the lights
continue to flash contact Fumex LLC. for replacement information.
Filter monitoring
The GS1-100 unit utilizes a pressure differential switch to monitor the status of the Pre-filter. The system
monitors across all filters simultaneously and the Red “FILTER” light will illuminate when the Pre-filter needs to
be replaced. The recommended procedure is to replace the Pre-Filter and then press the “FILTER RESET” button.
If the light remains illuminated or turns off and comes back on then contact Fumex for assistance.
The GS1-100 unit contains a VOC sensor to detect odors/gases in the exhaust stream. When the gas/odor filter
becomes saturated and breakthrough of the VOC occurs the “GAS” warning light will illuminate.
GENERAL FILTER CARE
Fumex’s GS1-100 air purifier features a multi-stage filtration system designed to remove a wide range of
pollutants from the process plume in an extremely efficient, cost-effective manner. The sytem utilizes a pressure
differential switch to indicate blocked / clogged filters. Once the warning lights illuminate, filters should be
checked and clogged filters replaced.
STANDARD FILTERS:
Part # FA103 – Polyester pre-filter
The disposable polyester pre-filter is the first stage of the filtration process. Its main function is to remove dust
particles 100µand larger in advance of the more expensive pleated panel filter.
Replacement:
The service life of the polyester pre-filter is determined by the type and volume of large particles collected.
Average service life is 4-6 weeks

Part # FA201D – Gas/Odor Filter
Most process plumes contain several gases, some odorous – some not, some toxic at elevated concentrations –
some completely harmless regardless of concentration. To ensure employee safety the type and concentration
of pollutants must be determined. Please contact Fumex Engineering for filter selection assistance. These filters
utilize a blended activated carbon and activated alumina impregnated with KMnO4 filter to capture and treat
gases/odors. This combination of materials provides protection across a broad range of gases commonly found
in industrial manufacturing processes.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
1) The blower motor is a sealed unit, 24,000 hr. MTBF rated. It is permanently lubricated and does not require
oiling – keep it free of dust accumulations to prevent overheating.
2) Remove any loose accumulations of dust/debris from the air filter chamber periodically.
“This product employs overload protection (fuse). A blown fuse indicates an overload or short-circuit situation. If
the fuse blows, unplug the product from the outlet. Replace the fuse as per the user servicing instructions (only
10-Amp fuse) and check the product. If the replacement fuse blows, a short circuit may be present and the
product should be discarded or returned to an authorized service facility for examination and/or repair”.
Remote Interface and Connectivity Function
The GS1-100 unit can be supplied with an optional interface package providing remote start/stop and filter
monitoring capabilities (Part # FA228). Please see instructions below for Relay Activation/De-Activation
procedures and refer to the drawing in Figure 1 for remote connections.
WARNING
“To Prevent the Risk of Electrical Shock, Connect Remote Interface
Cable to 24v, Class 2 Power Supply Only”
WARNING
“Disconnect From All Power Supplies Before Servicing”

RELAY ACTIVATION PROCEDURES FOR GS1-100 UNITS
CAUTION
DO NOT WORK ON PANEL WITH POWER APPLIED!
1. Disconnect all power sources from GS1-100 unit.
2. Remove the 8 screws securing the bottom panel and gently pry bottom panel loose.
3. Locate relay activation switch on the rear of the control panel as shown in Figure 2.
4. Flip the Relay Activation Switch to the “ON” position as indicated in Figure 3.
5. Reinstall bottom panel using the 8 screws removed in step 2.
6. Apply incoming power to the unit by connecting the power cord and turning the power switch located near
the power cord on. Make sure the blower is not running and the green power light is off. This is called the
“Soft On” state.
7. Now that the physical switch is activated and the unit is in the “Soft On” state, the software will need to be
reprogramed via a flash drive with a configuration file and the USB port on the control board. (Contact Fumex
to acquire the correct configuration file for your unit).
8. Reprogram the software by changing the “remoteSwitchOnly” setting in the configuration file to “1”. This
will lock out the Control Board power button. The ON/OFF function will only be able to be controlled
remotely.
9. After changing and saving the configuration file, plug the flash drive into the USB port on the front of the
control board. (Make sure the unit is in the “Soft On” state before plugging in the flash drive.)
10. After the reprogramming is complete the light above the USB port will turn green and remain lit until the flash
drive is removed from the USB port.
11. Remove the flash drive and apply 0-24 VDC to the start relay according to the wiring diagram in Figure 3 to
start the unit.
Once the relay activation switch is turned on and the configuration file has been
reprogrammed the unit will only start by applying the proper voltage to the
start/stop relay.
