2 1.0 INTRODUCTION You are now the owner of a Quatro SPH system, an advanced effective indoor air purification system designed specifically to remove particulate matter and/or gas phase contaminants. You can expect a noticeable improvement in air quality as the SPH begins the process of reducing microscopic airborne particulate as well as harmful and odorous gases. 2.0 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS Read all of the instructions contained in this manual before operating this unit. Keep this manual, as it contains information for proper operation and maintenance. Keep all fastening hardware tight to ensure that the unit is in safe working condition. Disconnect power prior to accessing unit, when checking or replacing filters, or replacing motor brushes. All filters must be in place whenever this machine is in operation. Use only on a grounded electrical circuit; do not use any two-wire electrical prong adapters to defeat the three-pronged plug on the end of the cord. When servicing the motors be careful when touching the exterior of the motor as soon as it has been turned off; it may be hot enough to be painful or cause injury. With modern motors, this condition is normal when operated at rated load and voltage, as they are built to operate at higher temperatures. Do not substitute any other filters (particulate or chemical) for those supplied, as this will alter the design characteristics and may void warranty. DO NOT ACCESS UNIT UNLESS UNIT IS UNPLUGGED FROM RECEPTACLE (ITS POWER SUPPLY)! Warning: This is a class A product. In domestic environment, this product may cause radio interference in which case the user may be required to take adequate measures. 3.0 PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION The SPH features a progressive filtration sequence method of operation; 1) captures general particulate 2) HEPA filter removes microscopic particulate matter; 3) chemically adsorbs, reacts or scrubs toxic or nuisance gases; SYSTEM COMPONENTS CABINET: Attractive airbrushed finish. The SPH is mounted on casters to ease portability. STANDARD FILTER SEQUENCES (from top to bottom): BLOWER ASSEMBLY: The blowers are tested to ensure quiet, vibration-free operation. The blower(s) in the SPH-400 Series features a blower mounting system designed to reduce vibration and noise. CONTROLS: Externally visible: ON/OFF switch, fused internally, a potentiometer to adjust airflow as required. AIR SUPPLY: 2, 3 or 4 diameter collars, mounted on top of the unit c/w flexible hose. POWER CORD: 8 long electrical power cord. Page 2

The brushes should be replaced before they are completely worn. Waiting until the brushes are completely expired could result in motor damage. Periodic brush inspection is a good preventative maintenance practice. The brushes on the SPH system can be changed in less than 5 minutes with the use of a screwdriver BLOWER MAINTENANCE, CHANGING BRUSHES WARNING: Switch unit off and unplug power cord from wall before servicing the blower. Screws Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 3 1) Using a phillips screwdriver, unscrew the 2 screws holding down each of 2 gold colored brush casings (see Figure 1) 2) Lift gold colored tab and lift/pull out each brush (Figure 2 shows right brush removed) 3) Replace each brush onto turbine motor, screwing down the phillips screws over tab. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO REMOVE TURBINE FROM UNIT TO CHANGE BRUSHES! To access motor, remove blower section door. TURBINE & BRUSHES are visible once door is removed. Page 6

Every 12 months (during a filter change-out): 1) Verify sealing integrity of the chemical filter at the bottom of filter section (Gasket PN: H296 or Blue Gel) 2) Verify that the blue gel is in tact and providing a good filter seal 3) gasket under top cover plate (Gasket PN: H006).

9 11.0 OPERATION The air is drawn into the unit through the intake hose located at the top of unit. The air then passes through the various stages of particulate and odor / gas filtration. Powered by a motor/blower assembly, the clean air is then released through the bottom discharge grille into the floor of the room POSITIONING OF UNIT SPH should be placed as close as possible to debris generating machine REDUCTION IN AIRFLOW As the unit cleans the air, the filters are removing the particles of dust and debris in the air stream. As the filters accumulate debris (both visible and microscopic), a restriction on the blower/motor is created. As the restriction becomes greater, the air capacity delivered by the blower decreases rendering the unit less effective. Service Note: IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO CHANGE PARTICULATE FILTERS ON A REGULAR BASIS TO AVOID DAMAGE TO MOTORS CAUSED BY LACK OF AIRFLOW AND OVERHEATING TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE Symptoms Possible Cause Suggested Solution Unit will not start o Faulty Power supply o Return or supply grille blocked o Blown fuse o Unit not plugged into receptacle o Check power supply o Remove obstruction o Replace fuse (PN: E106) o Plug unit in Excessive noise o Blower wheel out of align o Replace blower High Amp Draw Insufficient airflow o Lack of restriction o Obstruction in system o Clogged filters o Ensure hose is attached from SPH equipment o Ensure filters are installed properly o Supply only Quatro replacement filters o Remove obstruction o Replace filters Excessive airflow O Filters not in place o Install filters Odor breaking through system Blue Gel is damaged O Chemical filter not sitting in blue gel O Chemical filters are consumed O Removing/Installing the chemical module excessively O Realign module so that the bottom is sealed in the gel O Replace chemical media Filters not in place O Scrape gel out of track and replace with new gel or a dense closed cell neoprene gasket 12.0 WARRANTY QUATRO Air Technologies warrants its equipment to be free from defect in material and workmanship under normal use and service for a period of one year from date of shipment.
