HOW THE AIR CLEANER WORKS
Dirt particles flowing through the ducts (Figure 1) first enters
the pre-filters (A) where large particles (hair, lint, etc.) are
trapped. Smaller particles (smoke, dust, pollen, etc.) pass
through these pre-filters and enter the ionizing section (B).
Here each tiny particle receives a positive electrical charge.
These charged particles then enter the collecting section
(C). This section consists of a series of aluminum plates
which are alternately charged negative and positive.
The positive charge of the particles cause them to be
repelled by the positive plates and attracted to the negative
plates where they are collected.., just as a magnet attracts
iron filings.
Clean-filtered air re-enters the supply duct system.
White Dust (Lint)
An Electronic Air Cleaner is designed to collect two major
types of contaminants: ¢ Irritants (Pollens, Spores, Molds,
Bacteria, etc.) and @ Black Soiling Contaminants (Dirt and
Smoke particles).
The residue on the collecting plates of an electronic air
cleaner is black, indicating it is removing dirt from the air
stream. After installing an air cleaner you may notice white
dust (typically, long linty particles or fibers - from carpets,
cotton materials or drapery fabrics). This material is not
collected by the air cleaner because it does not contain the
irritants or soiling contaminants listed above or settles out of
the air before reaching the air cleaner. The presence of
white dust does not indicate an air cleaner requires service.

Carbon (Charcoal) Filters
Odors are gas molecules, not particles. They cannot be
removed by an Electronic Air Cleaner or by any other
filtration media designed to remove airborne particles.
However, some gases can be absorbed by an activated
carbon filter or diluted with fresh outdoor air. When odors
are present, the addition of charcoal filters will neutralize
odors, such as cooking odors, pet odors, cigar and cigarette
odors, ozone, etc. Optional charcoal filters are available for
your Air Cleaner. Refer to the parts list for the charcoal filter
part number for your Air Cleaner. Charcoal filters require
replacement. They cannot be washed. While there is no rule
of thumb for how often they should be changed, you can
use your best judgement based on the odors you perceive
in your environment.
CONSTRUCTION OF THE AIR CLEANER
Not only is your air cleaner easy to install, it is also easy to
operate and maintain. Its basic components, and their
functions, are as follows: (See Figure 2)
Cabinet - mounts to existing duct work and houses the
collecting cells and pre-filters.
Collecting Cells - are made in two sections and perform the
actual collecting of dust, dirt, and other impurities
from the air. They contain the ionizing and collec-
tion sections described above.
Each cell must be installed with the ionizing wires
on the air entering side. Each cell must be oriented
with the handles and contact button (Figure 2)
toward the operator.
Pre-filters - are in two sections which are interchangeable.
They serve as a pre-filter to trap large particles
such as hair and lint before they can enter the cell
sections.
Power Pack- contains operating and power on lights as well
as the solid state components that convert the 120
volt power supply to the high-voltage, direct current
required for the collecting cell.

LOCATING THE AIR FILTER
Your air filter must be mounted in the return air duct of a
central forced-air system, on the air entering side of your
furnace. (See Figure 3 for example.)
Select a location that meets the following:
1. The face of the cell will be at a right angle to the air
stream.
2. Allow the following clearances to permit removal of
cells and pre-filters: (See Figures 4 and 5)
Model SST1000 - 14 inches
Model SST1400 - 15 inches
Model SST1600 - 14 inches
Model SST2000 - 15 inches
For complete dimension data refer to Figure 5.
3. The air filter is not to be placed in the discharge of
either the heating or cooling unit.
4. IMPORTANT: If atomizing spray type humidifier is
used, it must be installed downstream from the air
filter.
5. Ifthe air cleaner has a powercord installed, unitmust
be located close enought to the outlet so connection
can be made without the use of an extension cord.
If your furnace duct system has a pre-installed boot,
discard front cover of boot and slide the air cleaner
component inside the boot. For installation of Air Cleaner
Retrofit (ACR) kits, see page 13.
If furnace opening cannot be enlarged to required size, a
transition sheet metal section must be used. Transition
must be planned for each job. Reduction should not be
more than 4 inches per linear foot, approximately 20
angular degrees (Figure 3).

DIRECTION OF AIR FLOW THROUGH
THE AIR CLEANER
Your air cleaner is shipped from the factory with airflow
from left-to-right. If this air flow is suitable for the
installation, no further changes need to be made (Fig-
ure 4). For right-to-left air flow, remove both pre-filter
and cell sections. Turn cells upside down (with the
same end facing the cabinet opening). This will locate
the ionizing wires at the right, and both contact buttons
and cell handles will be facing the power door. Air flow
direction must agree with arrow embossed on end of
collecting cells.
After installing the cell sections, install pre-filters in cabinet
tracks on the right. This will again place the pre-filters on
the air entering side (on the same side as ionizing wires).

INSTALLATION
The following is a typical installation of the air cleaner on
a "Highboy" furnace (Figure 8).
1. Placethe airfiltercleaneronthefloor. Stand it upright
with the power door facing you (Figure 4). If a horizon-
tal installation is being planned, lay the cleaner on its
side, this will help you to visualize the relative location
of all parts.
Allow ample space for wiring and servicing the power
supply box (Figure 13).
2. Release the latch, remove the power pack (by grasp-
ing handle and pulling power pack away from cabinet)
and set itaside. Remove the collecting cells and pre-
filters. Set pre-filters and cells aside in a safe location
until the cabinet is installed.
3. Set the cabinet next to the furnace. If necessary,
enlarge the opening in the furnace (if possible) to
match the opening in the cabinet.
If the furnace opening cannot be enlarged, a transition
fitting should be used. (Figure 3).
The cabinet can be attached directly (Figure 13), or a
starting collar can first be fitted to the furnace inlet. A
butt or slip joint can be used.
Securely attach the cabinet to furnace inlet, using at
least two of the mounting holes on each side of the
cabinet.
4. Using butt joint, attach duct work (normally an elbow)
to the upstream side of air cleaner cabinet. (Note the
use of the sheet metal turning vanes inside the elbow
to improve air distribution over the face of the cells.)
(Figure 14)
NOTE: An optional method of attaching duct work to the
cabinet is to modify the cabinet (Figure 15) by bending the
tabs outward at a 90° angle and attaching duct work to
tabs.
Transition Fittings
If the air duct does not fit the cabinet opening, a transition
fitting should be used. Gradual transitions are preferred
for greatest efficiency. Not more than four inches per
linear foot (approximately 20° angle) should be allowed
(Figure 3).

(Figure 16).
Seal all joints in the return air system downstream
from the air cleaner with duct tape to prevent dust from
entering the air stream. Tape is usually applied on the
outside of ducts, but may also be applied on the
inside, or both.

WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
7. With the cabinet installed, the air cleaner can now be
wired to electrical input source.
Installation of this unit must comply with local
electric codes or other applicable codes.
Review and understand local codes prior to instal-
lation.
Failure to do so could result in serious personal
injury or death.
10. If this unit has an electrical cord, the cord has a
grounding type plug with a third (grounding) pin. This
plug will fit only into a grounding type power outlet. If
the proper type of outlet is not available, contact
qualified personnel to install a proper outlet. Do not
alter the plug in any way.
To reuce the risk of electric shock, The power cord
must be connected to an appropriate outlet. Do not
alter the plug in any way.
8. An air cleaner unit with no air flow monitor requires
electrical wiring through the furnace controls. Con-
nect wiring to the furnace control terminals (EAC-H)
for power, (EAC-N) for neutral and connect metal
frame of EAC to ground.
If the air cleaner unit has an airflow monitor, it must be
connected to 120 VAC 60 Hz. A 20 amp circuit is more
than adequate. If an airflow monitor is not installed but
is required for operation, order Air Flow Kit F859-
0381. If a power cord is required, order F97-0019.
9. Remove junction box cover and install the required
bushing into the 3/4 in. Knock out. With the supply
voltage turned off, route three (3) wires into junction
box for connections. (See Fig. 17.)
Insure all wires are clamped, wire connectors prop-
erly installed and grommets used to prevent wire
abrasion.

OPERATION
1. With the 120 VAC power turned on at the circuit
breaker for the fumace, push the air cleaner ON-OFF
switch to the "ON" position (Figure 20).
2. With thefurnace blower running, the aircleanerwill be
operating. An arcing or "snapping" sound may be
heard. This will occur occasionally, however the unit
is operating properly.
3. With the furnace blower running, the Operating Light
should be ON. If the Operating Light is not ON this
signifies that the cells need washing, or that trouble
exists in the unit.
If, after washing the cells, the Operating Light stays off, the
cell could be wet, improperly placed in the cabinet or may
need servicing.
NOTE: An occasional flicker of the light accompanied by
harmless sparking or snapping noise may occur. This is
caused by trapping large particles of dirt. If arcing is
continuous, the cells should be washed or checked for
service problems see Basic SST Service Guide.

MAINTENANCE AND WASHING
CABINET AND CELLS MAY CON-
TAIN SHARP EDGES.
Use care when servicing unit or han-
dling cells.
Failure to do so could result in minor
personal injury.
For maximum efficiency your air cleaner cell(s) and pre-
filter(s) should be inspected once a month and cleaned
when necessary. Cleaning will usually be required every
one tothree months, depending upon the particular house-
hold circumstances. When cleaning is required the follow-
ing procedure should be used:
CLEANING THE CELLS
1. Turn the air moving system "OFF."
2. Push the ON-OFF switch on the power pack to the
"OFF" position (Figure 20). Wait 15 seconds and both
the power pack and the collecting cell(s) will be
automatically discharged.
3. Release the latch on top of power pack and pull the
power pack straight away from cabinet at the top.
Then lift pack out of ledge at bottom edge of cabinet.
Set power pack aside.
4. Remove the cell(s) and pre-filter(s) from cabinet.
Using a solution of warm water and low sudsing
detergent, soak cell(s) and pre-filter(s) for 20 to 30
minutes.
NOTE: Ionizing wires may become coated causing
loss of cleaning ability by the collecting cell. Using a
damp cloth, wipe each ionizing wire, exercising care
not to damage them.
5. Remove the cell(s) and pre-filter(s) from solution and
rinse thoroughly with clean water.
6 Allow cell(s) and pre-filter(s) to drip dry for a minimum
of 2 hours. Cell(s) and pre-filter(s) may be tipped at
a slight angle to expedite the drip-dry process.
7. Reinstall the cell(s) and pre-filter(s) in the cabinet.
8. Replace the power pack. Turn fumace fan on. After 30
minutes push ON-OFF switch on the power pack to
the "ON" position.
A moderate amount of arcing or"snapping" may occur
at this time, which will indicate that the cell(s) are still
damp. Ifthe noise isobjectionable, push the ON-OFF
switch to the "OFF" position and allow additional time
for cell(s) and pre-filter(s) to dry. In some cases the
Operating Light will remain OFF during this initial
activation of the air cleaner, and this would indicate
that the cell(s) are not completely dry. The Operating
Light should remain ON while the furnace fan is
running once the drying is complete.

REPLACING AN IONIZING WIRE
If an ionizing wire should break, it can be replaced as
follows:
,
,
3.
Remove all pieces of broken wire. Make sure sup-
ports at each end are in good condition and not bent
out of shape.
Hook the new wire onto the support at one end.
Hold your finger against the support at the other end
(Figure 21) and hold the ionizing wire between thumb
and forefinger as shown or use needle nose pliers.
Press inward on spring support. Hook end of wire over
small tab at end of support and release. Make sure
wire is securely anchored at each end. Wire

TECHNICAL REPAIR GUIDE
Do not attempt repair of this unit unless you are
familiarwith the necessarytools, equipment, utility
connections and potential hazards.
Repair should be performed only by a qualified
service provider.
Failure to do so could result in reduced perfor-
mance of the unit, serious personal injuryor death.
This guide contains service checks to assist service
personnel in locating and correcting any malfunction that
might occur to render the air cleaner ineffective or inop-
erative. The air cleaner has been designed with replace-
able components, such as the high-voltage power supply
and airflow switch. This allows the serviceman to replace
a faulty component rather than attempt repairs of such
components in the field.
All voltage measurements indicated can be made with a
high voltage D.C. probe and a general purpose volt ohm
meter. For example: Simpson 260 or equivalent.
For test purposes, the air flow switch may be "wired out"
of the system. This will eliminate the need for air flow
across the sensing thermistor to energize the power
supply (see Fig 23).
NOTE: All tests to be performed with the Ozone Reduction
Jumper intact.
NOTE: When servicing the power pack components, all
wiring must be routed to factory specifications.

4. Place power pack on a well insulated workbench.
Connect meter negative (-) lead to the sheet metal
chassis and the high voltage probe to high voltage
contact on back cover of power pack. Connect AC
power to power pack using an extension cord and turn
power switch to the "ON" position. Keep hands and
tools away from high voltage contact.
5. If Operating Light comes ON and output voltage is
between 6100 and 6800 VDC, power supply is good.
6. If voltage is good but Operating Light does not come
on, replace Operating Light.
CELL TEST
1. Place collecting cell on a well insulated workbench
with the cell contact button pointing upward.
2. Select a power pack (with air flow switch bypassed
and ozone reduction jumper intact) that reads be-
tween 6100 and 6800 VDC at the cell contact with no
cell attached.
3. Place power pack on top of collecting cell ensuring
that there is proper contact between the cell contact
on the power pack contact.
4. Using a standard extension cord, apply 120 VAC to
power pack. Turn power switch to "ON" position.
5. Connect meter negative (-) lead to metal frame of
collecting cell. Use high voltage probe to measure
voltage at collecting cell ionizer or cell plates. Voltage
should be 6100 to 6800 VDC.
NOTE: A new "out-of-box" cell may cause the voltage
to be lower than normal for a short period of time. To
obtain a more accurate measurement, "age" the cell
by applying high voltage to the cell for 15 to 30
minutes.
6 If voltage is below 6100 VDC, check cell for foreign
objects, bowed/bent/loose plates, broken ionizing
wires or cracked insulators. Wash cells if required. If
Operating Light remains OFF, replace collecting cell.
AIR FLOW MONITOR TEST
1. Connect a multimeter set to read 120 VAC to power
supply terminals marked "LINE."

OZONE REDUCTION
All electronic air cleaners typically produce a small
amount of ozone that is within established limits.
Some customers may notice an odor especially at
high altitudes or low air flow rates.
This power supply has a "hairpin" shaped jumper
wire labeled W1 (see Fig 24) that can be cut and
separated in case of such complaints. This will
cause the power supply to limit the maximum
operating power to a lower level. )

the pre-filters. Be sure ionizing wires are directly
behind the pre-filters so the particles can be charged
as soon as the air leaves the pre-filters.
3. Remove cover plate on the power supply junction box
and remove the knockout needed to bring the wire to
the female receptacle.
4. Position receptacle with ground in the down position
as shown in Fig 17 (page 7) and pull wires through the
receptacle Iocator on the junction box. Snap the
receptacle into the hole until secure.
5. Connect ground wirefrom receptacle and ground wire
in kit to cabinet with rivet and washer as follows:
a) Place washer on rivet
