13. ING THE INSTALLATION Application The F300E Electronic Air Cleaner is used in a forced air heating cooling or ventilating system It removes airborne particles from the air circulated through it All models have an internal air flow switch that operates the air cleaner when the system blower is on Review Installation Requirements The air cleaner should be installed where all the air passing through the system circulates through it The best location is in the return air duct next to the blower compartment so the air cleaner can help keep the blower motor and evaporator coils clean IMPORTANT Do not mount in the discharge air duct 68 0240 1 For most efficient air cleaning airflow must be spread evenly across the face of the air cleaner If the duct is a different size than the air cleaner cabinet gradual transitions are recommended If the duct turns sharply just before the air cleaner turning vanes are recommended Applications with Air Conditioning The air cleaner should be installed upstream from the evaporator coil The air cleaner will help keep the coil clean reducing maintenance Applications with a Humidifier An evaporative humidifier can be mounted upstream from the air cleaner An atomizing humidifier should be mounted downstream from the air cleaner even though hard water salts will be blown into the living space and deposited as dust If an atomizing humidifier must be mounted upstream from the air cleaner
