INTRODUCTION
The CADPXS Shield 550 is a convenient filtration system that cleans the air. The 550 uses an effective blend of air flow and advanced filtration to expel airborne particles like mold spores, dust, pollen, and pet dander. The Shield is ideal for for restoration jobs, including water, sewage, and fire.
IDENTIFICATION
Congratulations on purchasing a Shield 550 air scrubber. In order to take
advantage of the warranty plan, be sure to note the serial number and date of
purchase.
- Serial Number: ————————–
- Date of Purchase :————————–
HOW IT WORKS
- When set to maximum airflow, the 550 draws air through two types of filters- a pre-filter and a the CADPXS HEPA Filter.
- The first phase of filtration, the prefilter, catches the large particles, while the second phase of filtration, the CADPXS HEPA Filter, catches smaller particles, down to 0.3 microns.
SPECIAL FEATURES
Daisy-Chain Capability
Using the auxiliary outlet on the control panel, you can link up to 3 units
together, creating a maximum airflow 550 CFM. You can also daisy-chain the
machines when they are stacked vertically (limit of 2 units).
Multi-Positional
The CAD PXS Shield 550 can be operated in the vertical position, as well as,
when stacked vertically (up to 2 units). When storing, the machines can be
stacked horizontally to save space.
Removable Intake Panel
The Shield 550 is equipped with a removable panel on the intake side of the
machine. The removable panel is quite useful in remediation applications, so
you can draw air out the room and create more negative pressure (use a
manometer to monitor air pressure).
To use panel
- Remove the panel.
- Install the machine outside the containment area to draw air out.
- Cut a hole in the containment plastic that is the size of the unit’s inlet.
- Insert the inlet into plastic and seal the circumference tightly with duct tape.
KEY FEATURES
INSTRUCTIONS
SETUP
- Place the CADPXS Shield 550 so that it is in the upright, vertical position.
- Plug the machine into a standard 115 volt outlet.
- Note : Each unit needs 3 amps to operate.
- Power the unit on and adjust the speed by turning the variable speed control. The maximum speed is 550 CFM and the minimum speed is 270 CFM.
- The Shield 550 can be operated in the vertical or horizontal position, depending on the exact situation. At this point, adjust the machine to the optimal position.
THE CONTROL PANEL
Variable Speed Control
The Variable Speed Control is used to adjust the power of the machine. Turn
the knob in a clockwise direction, to increase the speed from maximum to
minimum. The minimum speed setting is located immediately under the OFF
button. You can switch to minimum speed by turning the knob counterclockwise.
Auxiliary Outlet
If more air filtration is necessary for a space, you can “daisy chain” or link
up to 3 Shield 550’s to the same outlet. There is a maximum amperage of 10
when the units are turned off, a maximum of 9 amps when the units are turned
on. Other equipment can be plugged into the same outlet as the Shield as long
as it doesn’t go above the max amperage.
Circuit Breaker Switch
The Circuit Breaker Switch protects the unit if there are more than 10 amps of
electricity passing the circuit. If this occurs, the switch will cut off the
power to the unit.
Timer
When the machine is running, the meter starts working time. Record the total
working time and cannot be cleared. The maximum accumulated time range is
99999H, ≤9999.9H, the display accuracy is 0.1H, >9999.9H, the display accuracy
is 1H.
Filter replacement indicator
This light is to monitor the usage of the filter. When this light is on, it
means that your filter has reached the state that needs to be replaced
.
CHANGING THE FILTERS
- Loosen the 2 locks that hold the filter board in place.
- Slide out the filter panel board.
- Remove the used filters and replace with new filters.
WARNING
- Always wear approved protective gear when changing the filters.
- Filters should be changed after each remediation job.
- If the indicator light is on, always change the CADPXS HEPA Filter.
APPLICATIONS
Water Damage
In this application, the Shield should be placed in the center of the affected
area. The air scrubber will draw in the air, filter it, then blow out the
newly cleaned air. To begin the process, simply turn on the scrubber and it
will start cleaning the air. Keep in mind that if you are working in a large
area or one divided by walls, you may need several air scrubbers to
effectively clean the air.
Odor Control
The Shield 550, when used with the CADPXS HEPA Filter, is excellent at odor
control, as well. Simply place the carbon filter in the pre-filter slot and it
will capture a wide variety of odor-causing gas molecules, such as volatile
organic compounds (VOC’s), smoke, soot, and paint fumes.
Other Uses
The Shield is also useful in many other applications including mold
remediation, fire damage, dust control, and sewage remediation.
WARNING! Breathing Hazard
- When using the CADPXS Shield 550 in a containment area, always turn off power to open combustion appliances, such as fireplaces, furnaces, water heaters, and CADPXS systems, to avoid the risk of backdating carbon monoxide fumes.
- If the Filter Change Light illuminates during the remediation process, immediately change the CADPXS HEPA Filter. Tipping Hazard
- Use caution when stacking units.
- Fang equipment duo cause oldy of each other.
SAFETY NOTES
- Always unplug the unit prior to performing any maintenance.
- Check the power cord for damage (fraying, cuts, etc.) before use.
- Verify that the GFCI outlet is working by powering on the machine and pressing the red GFCl test button. If the outlet is working, the “reset” button will pop up. To operate, press the reset button again.
- To avoid electric shock, never use a water hose or pressure washer to clean the electrical components.
- Check the pre-filter prior to operating the machine to ensure it is not clogged. If there is any sign of air flow restriction change the filter.
- Make sure the unit is dry prior to installing clean filters.
- When using the Shield for remediation purposes, replace both filters at the same time and always clean machine in between jobs. This will help prevent cross contamination.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Keep the item’s packaging in case warranty service is required.
