Operation Guidelines

7.1 Source Capture System Positioning
Place the HealthyAir® Source Capture Aerosol Extractor in the desired location and adjust the Flex Hose to position the Hood approximately 6” from the source.
7.2 Source Capture System Activation
7.2.1 Plug the Power Cord into the Power Socket, located on the bottom of the side panel of the unit, and then plug the other end of the cord into a wall power socket. Once plugged in, the Power indicator light [ ] will turn on and display a red light.
7.2.2 Activate the unit by pressing the Power button located on the Control Panel, shown in Fig. 6, or on the Remote Control.
Once the unit is powered, the motor will start with the Fan Speed set to the Mid-Speed, and the eHEPA® indicator will light up and display a green light, which indicates that the eHEPA® system is activated.

7.3 Source Capture System Controls
Each of the respective control elements shown on the Control Panel Display in Fig. 5 works as follows:

• SPEED button on the Control Panel or Remote Control adjusts the volume of airflow being taken in through the hood. Airflow speed can be adjusted to one of three settings: Low – Mid – High Speed.
• eHEPA button turns the grid on and off. When the eGrid is powered the symbol above the HEPA button, as well as the acrid Active light, will turn green. Pressing the  HEPA button once more will shut off the grid and turn off the indicator light.

7.3 Source Capture System Controls

• TIMER button is for the operation of the timing clock. When this feature is in use the unit will automatically shut off after the set time expires. The system’s default timing is 4 hours of operation.
  To set the timer manually, press the TIMER button once for every hour you wish to run the machine (i.e. press TIMER once for 1-hour of run time, press TIMER twice for 2-hours of run time, press TIMER three times for 3-hours of run time, and press TIMER four times for 4-hours of run time).
  If the TIMER button is pressed five (5) times, such that it passes through the complete timing schedule, it will run continuously until the unit is manually turned off.

• LIGHT button turns the Hood LED Light on and off. When the LED Light is on the symbol above the button turns green. Pressing the LIGHT button once more will turn off the LED Light as well as the indicator light.

• eGrid Active indicator light indicates the status of the eHEPA® and grid system. When the grid Active indicator light is green, while the HEPA button is on, the eGrid is functioning properly. If the grid Active indicator light is off, while the HEPA button is on, it signals that the grid is malfunctioning and the unit requires service.

Filter Replacement

8.1 Replacement Filters
The HealthyAir® Source Capture Aerosol Extractor Model HA-SSC-G4AE utilizes the HealthyAir® Series 1213 Replacement Filters, as follows:

• HealthyAir® Pre-Filter: Model No. HA-PF-1213

• HealthyAir® Activated Carbon Filter: Model No. HA-PF-1213

Note that, only manufacturer-supplied HealthyAir® Replacement Filters are compatible with HealthyAir® Source Capture Systems. No other replacement filters are to be used with this unit. The improper use of nonmanufacturer- supplied filters will void any potential warranty claim.

8.2 Filter Replacement
The recommended filter replacement cycle is 9-12 months on average. However, the need for filter replacement naturally varies depending on the frequency and nature of use.
When the unit has been in operation for 400-hours, the Filter Change indicator light, on the Control Panel, will begin to flash. This serves as a reminder to inspect and/or replace the filter.

8.2.1 Turn the Power Off and unplug the Power Cord from the Power Socket.
8.2.2 Remove the Access Door by unscrewing the two (2) Thumb Screws.
8.2.3 Remove the Pre-Filter, eHEPA® Filter, and Activated Carbon Filter.

8.2 Filter Replacement

8.2.4 Install a new set of HealthyAir® Series 1213 Replacement Filters.
8.2.5 Reinstall the Access Door, ensuring that the Access Door is properly inserted back into its track. Once the Access Door is properly aligned and set in place, secure it by screwing in the Thumb Screws.
8.2.6 Plug the Power Cord back into the Power Socket and wall socket.

8.3 Filter Change Indicator Light Reset
Once the filters have been replaced and the unit is powered on, the Filter Change indicator light may continue to flash. To reset the filter change timer and deactivate the  flashing light, go through the following reset procedure:
8.3.1 Unplug the Power Cord from the Power Socket, wait a couple of seconds, and plug the Power Cord back into the Power Socket.
8.3.2 Press and hold down the Power Button [ ] on the Control Panel (not the Remote Control) for five (5) seconds.
8.3.3 After five (5) seconds have passed, release the Power Button. The filter change timer will have reset to 400-hours and the Filter Change Indicator light will have stopped flashing now

Maintenance

9.1 Cleaning Filter Compartment
