CLEANAIR CA-1000 ELECTRONIC AIR CLEANER
READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
It is highly recommended that a licensed electrician or licensed contractor install these units.
This manual contains information for location, installation, operation and service. Before
installation and operation of the air cleaner, read instructions carefully to ensure safe and
effective operation of this unit, and avoid unnecessary service cost.
Carefully unpack unit and check for damage incurred in shipment. Report any damage to freight
line immediately.
Proper installation procedures for both T-BAR ceiling and flush mount installation are provided.
Follow method that best suites application for air cleaner.
The unit cover is hinged, to allow for easy access
and serviceability of the air cleaner components.
Two (2) spring latches are located on front of cover
as shown in Fig. l. To gain access to inside of air
cleaner unit for installation and servicing, depress
both latches simultaneously and swing cover open.
T-BAR INSTALLATION
Installation requires a 10” clearance between permanent ceiling and T-Bar ceiling. CAUTION:
Do not install unit in a T-Bar ceiling unless unit can be secured to a permanent ceiling or ceiling
joists, as described.
Installer must provide the following items for securing unit:
•Four (4) 1/4-20 x 1” Eyebolts
•Four (4) 1/4-20 Hex Nuts
•Four (4) 1/4 Flat Washers
•Length required - 2/0 Chain
Open unit cover and remove cell assembly. (It is
necessary to remove thumb nut in the housing to
allow cell to slide into position for removal.) Install
eyebolts in cabinet top as shown in Fig. 2.

Install mounting angle as shown in Fig. 3, using No. 8 self-
drilling screws provided. Remove a ceiling tile centrally
located in area to be cleaned. Secure eyebolts, hooks etc. to
permanent ceiling or ceiling joists. Determine length of
chain necessary to support unit at maintaining angle or
slightly above level of T-Bar frame.
CAUTION: Do not allow full weight of unit to rest on T-Bar ceiling or frame.
Attach proper length of chain to each eyebolt on cabinet,
raise unit and secure chain to mounting devices in
permanent ceiling or joists. (see Fig. 4)
Connect electrical power to air cleaner, following
instructions under “Electrical Wiring”.
Remove charcoal filter from plastic bag and install in
channel on down-stream side of cell. (Arrow on side of
cell points in this direction.) Re-install cell, pre-filters and carbon filter. Swing access cover up
and snap closed. Unit is now ready to place in operation.
FLUSH MOUNT INSTALLATION
Open unit cover and remove the pre-filter and cell. Select a
location near the center of the area to be cleaned and locate
the ceiling joists in that area. Locate 4 mounting points (each
being at a joist) and pre-drill holes into the joists and unit
housing as shown in Fig. 5.
Lift unit into ceiling and secure using four ¼” x 2- ½” lag bolts
as shown in Fig. 5. Connect electrical power to unit. (See Field
Wiring Diagram) Remove carbon filter from plastic bag and
install in guide rails on back of cell. Re-install cell, pre-filter and
carbon filter. Replace thumb screws to secure cell in position.
Close access cover and snap closed. Unit is ready for
operation.

ELECTRICAL WIRING
The electrical access panel is located on the
air cleaner cabinet assembly. Knockouts are
provided in the top of the housing assembly.
Wire the unit to a 120-volt, 60 HZ, 1 phase.
Field wiring requires connecting black and
white leads to corresponding house current
input. Connect incoming ground (green) wire
to the ground screw located in air cleaner. See
Fig. 6.
SYSTEM CHECKOUT
After assembling and installing the unit,
switch the control switch to ON. The on/off
light should now be on. The light shows unit
has line voltage. Open cell access door. The
on/off light should go out. The blower should
also stop.
The CA-1000 is provided with a 3-speed
blower switch. Set switch to speed for desired
air flow.
REGULAR MAINTENANCE
Periodically the dirt collected by your unit
must be removed. The frequency of washing will depend on the amount of dirt present in the
air in your application.
The washing frequency best suited for your unit can be determined by examin-ing the collector
cells at 2-week intervals. As the dirt begins to collect, you will notice a light film, then a very
definite build-up will be evident at a later inspection. When there is a noticeable amount of
dirt, collecting cell must be washed. In most areas the collection cell should be washed about
every 12 weeks.

STEPS FOR WASHING
1. Switch control switch to OFF.
2. Remove pre-filter and electronic cell. (DO NOT wash charcoal post filter)
3. Place components in automatic dishwasher, stationary tub, shower stall or over floor drain.
4. Use hot soapy water and rinse with clear, hot water. Allow components to dry thoroughly.
Handle the electronic cells with care to avoid damaging plates and ionizing wires.
5. Replace pre-filter and cell. (Replace charcoal filter)
6. Close unit cover.
7. Switch control switch to ON. If arcing noise occurs due to wet cells, turn switch off and
allow more drying time.
ARCING (SNAPPING OR CRACKING NOISE) - An occasional arcing noise may he emitted from
the air cleaner. This is normal and is caused by a large piece of dirt entering the collecting cell.
An arcing noise may also be noted after cell washing. If this occurs and is constant, allow more
time for the cell to dry. (Refer to service check list).
HUMMING NOISE - The ionizing wires tend to vibrate when charged. At times when
atmospheric conditions are just right, and the humidity is exceptionally low, the vibration is
increased to the point where an audible hum may he noted. It usually occurs more in the
northern sections of the country during the winter months. This condition can be aggravated if
the ionizing-collecting cell is very dirty. The condition is self-correcting when the relative
humidity is increased or can be allevia-ted by washing the cell.
OZONE - Under normal operating conditions all electrostatic air cleaners produce minimal
quantities of ozone as a by-product, as do televisions and other electrical appliances. The
design of the unit has been tested and is far below the published permissible limits. The level of
sensitivity (when it is noticed) varies from individual to individual. A new unit will generate
more ozone than one that has been in operation for several weeks. This is due to the normal
number of sharp corners or manufacturing burrs on the collecting cell plates. The high voltage
works on these areas and tends to round them off correcting the situation. An ionizing-
collecting cell that has been damaged, where the designed spacing between electrically
charged and ground plates has been narrowed, may also produce a greater amount of ozone.
For operational problems other than these covered above, refer to reference trouble chart.

WARNING: Servicing unit may expose hazardous live parts. Disconnect power before
proceeding.
CAUTION: EXERCISE USUAL PRECAUTIONS WHEN WORKING WITH HIGH VOLTAGE. WHEN THE
CIRCUIT HAS BEEN D-ENERGIZED, ALWAYS DISCHARGE ANY RESIDUAL CURRENT IN THE
SECONDARY WITH AN INSULATED HANDLE SCREW DRIVER. ALWAYS GROUND POWER SUPPLY
AND IONIZING COLLECTING CELL WHEN BENCH TESTING.
