THE RXAIR PORTABLE AIR PURIFIER
Thank you for purchasing a ViraTech RxAir
portable Air Purification unit. Use this
product with confidence that it is
engineered to efficiently kill microbial
contaminants in your indoor environment.
We recommend that you operate your
RxAir whenever the property is occupied
since indoor air is constantly being
contaminated from a variety of sources.
MAJOR COMPONENTS
The ViraTech RxAir is a flow through indoor
air purification system which kills over 99%
of airborne bacteria, as well as other
contaminants that can cause allergic
reactions or respiratory issues. It is cleared
by the FDA as a Class II Medical Device for
killing bacteria. It is appropriate for any
hospital, residence or commercial
establishments concerned about the health
issues caused by indoor air pollution.
BEFORE USE & PLACEMENT
Carefully remove the unit from the box,
and set aside all packaging materials.
The unit should be placed in a location
which pulls the contaminated air away
from the living or sleeping space. For
example, in a bedroom, unit could be
placed in the corner of the bedroom
furthest from the head of the individual,
thus pulling untreated air away from
sleeping individual. In salons or other
commercial business, units should be
placed in the furthest corner from waiting
area and application area.For highest
performance and effectiveness always
place unit furthest from individuals,
drawing untreated air away from staff
and customers.
OPERATION of CONTROLS
All controls for the ViraTech RxAir are
located near the top of the unit.
•Center button turns unit ON and OFF.
Momentarily depress this button to
turn unit on. Press again to turn the
unit off.
•Arrow shaped buttons control fan
speed. Depress the button repeatedly to
adjust fan speed to desired level. The
left button decreases fan speed while
the right button increases fan speed.
•When Maximum or Minimum Speed is
reached, unit beeps.
CHANGING THE SCREEN AND
CARTRIDGE
The cartridge is engineered as a sealed
unit. It is not user serviceable. NO attempt
should be made to remove end caps to get
inside the cartridge. Doing so could pose a
health threat and will void the limited
warranty.
The cartridge should be changed when the
indicator turns from GREEN to AMBER or
STEADY RED. This occurs typically after
8800 hours of operation (1-4 years based
on daily hours of use). YOU MUST UNPLUG
THE UNIT FOR ONE MINUTE TO ALLOW
THE UNIT TO RESET.
PARTICULATE SCREEN
The particulate screen should be checked
every 1-3 months. If there are heavy
concentrations of contaminants in your
indoor environment, such as pets or dust,
you need to clean or change the screen
periodically. To clean, use a mild detergent,
followed by a thorough rinse with hot water,
dry and replace. For particulate screen
replacement see diagram above.
Replacement cartridges are available where
RxAir Air Purifiers are sold. Each replacement
cartridge comes with 4 particulate screens.
