W8600F
Air Cleaner Monitor
APPLICATION
The W8600F Air Cleaner Monitor is an option available for
use with the F50F and F52F Honeywell Electronic Air
Cleaners (EAC). The series two F50F and F52F require a
solid state power supply that is compatible with the
W8600F driver board. Any series one F50E, F or F52F
can be upgraded to use the W8600F when the power
supply is replaced and the driver board (included in
W8600F kit) is installed.
The W8600F function indicator panel has four liquid crystal
display (LCD) arrowheads that point to ON, BATTERY,
SERVICE or FAULT. See Fig. 1. The arrowheads darken
to indicate the existing EAC condition. See Table 1.

Mounting
The following mounting instructions assume that the
W8600F is mounted next to a T8600 Thermostat. If
installing the monitor at another location, modify the
procedure to fit the installation.
1. Hold the mounting template (included in the
W8600F kit) next to the T8600 as shown in Fig. 3.
2. Mark the holes for the screw anchors and the
3-conductor thermostat cable.
3. Remove the template and drill the holes.
4. Remove the W8600F from the base.
5. Position the W8600F base over the holes and install
the anchors and screws (included in the bag
assembly). Tighten the screws until the base is
mounted firmly on the wall.

Select Wash Frequency
Use the W8600F DIP switches to program the time
between SERVICE indications. Be sure to select the
setting according to the conditions of the home. Factors to
consider include the duty cycle of the EAC, the number of
people and pets, and activities such as woodworking and
other crafts that are being done in the home.
Refer to Table 2 to select the wash frequency. Set the
W8600F DIP switches to match the selection. See Fig. 4.
The time listed represents actual run time of the EAC, not
calendar days.

Wiring
1. Run a 3 -conductor thermostat cable (up to
18 gauge) from the W8600F to the terminal strip on
the air cleaner.
IMPORTANT
Connect cable to W8600F before attaching to the
air cleaner terminals to minimize the risk of
damage due to static electricity.
2. Connect the wires to terminals E1, E3 and E4 on the
W8600F. See Fig. 4.
3. Check that the battery is correctly installed in the
W8600F battery holder.
