Air Scrubber Introduction

  • XPOWER’s unique and highly innovative Air Scrubbers create a fresh and clean environment for various purposes.
  • With a special designed powerful motor, XPOWER Air Scrubbers are able to provide suction in even difficult areas.
  • The included filtration system can capture a wide range of compounds and prevents organism migration from location to location.

Installation and Operation Guide

Selecting a Location (Important)
  • Enclosed Area: For optimal efficiency and longer filter lifespan, the Air Scrubber should be operated in an enclosed area. Keep all doors, windows and other outside entrances to the room closed.
  • Air Circulation: It’s suggested to have a constant efficient air circulation inside your working area. You may achieve this with XPOWER Air Mover combinations.
  • Environment Humidity: For optimal efficiency and higher filter lifespan, the Air Scrubber should not be operated in an environment with a high relative humidity level. High humidity level could cause blockage and damage to filters.
  • Power Cord: The power cord has a length of 13 feet (4.0 meters). Select a location where the power cord can reach the power source. (See Also Page 9: Additional Electrical Receptacle)
  • Inlet and Outlet Orientation: Also pay attention to the orientation of the air inlet and air outlet. Make sure the airflow won’t influence any object nearby the Air Scrubber.
  • IMPORTANT: The effectiveness of the Air Scrubber can be influenced by different factors. You may also find that installing multiple Air Scrubbers may be required for larger enclosed areas. (See Also Page 9: Additional Electrical Receptacle)
Extension Setup (Optional)

Intake Ducting

  • Turn off the machine and remove the outer nylon mesh filter* and foam cover**.
  • Attach the ducting hose to the intake.
  • For model X-2380/X-2580/X-3380/X-3580 only.
  • For model X-2480A/X-3400A/X-4700A/X-4700AM only.

Exhaust Ducting

  • Turn off the machine.
  • Attach the ducting hose to the exhaust.

Filter Clean/Change Light
This indicates that the filters have exceeded the maximum capacity of particles, and the filtration efficiency has diminished. You should clean or replace the filters. (See Filter Maintenance)

Variable Speed Control (For Model X-3400A/X-4700A/X-4700AM only)

  • Turn to “OFF” position to switch the Air Scrubber OFF. Turn to any speed position to switch the Air Scrubber ON.
  • Turn clockwise to set the desired speed. “MAX” means the highest speed and “MIN ” means the lowest speed .

Hour Meter (For Model X-4700AM Only)

  • The hour meter shows the total running time from the first usage to the current moment.
  • When the machine turns on, the activity indicator will blink. The running time starts to count. When the machine is off, the activity indicator will stay illuminated.
  • The value can’t be reset. When the value exceeds 9999.9 hours, it will start over from 0 again.
Foam Cover*
  • Before use, please take off the foam cover. Otherwise it will cause abnormal motor operation and failure.
  • After use, please put back the foam cover.

  • Do not stack more than five units of this appliance.
  • For model X-2480A/X-3400A/X-4700A/X-4700AM only.

Organize the Cord

  • Wrap the power cord around the intake for storage after use.
  • Use convenient clip at end of cord to secure in place.
  • Wrap-around design does not apply to all models mentioned in this manual.
Filter Maintenance

To ensure the best filtration efficiency and to prevent secondary pollution of used filters, you should replace or clean the filters frequently or when the filter change light illuminates. Please follow the instructions below.

Unload the filters

Outer Nylon Mesh Filter

  • Outer nylon mesh filter* is on the intake of the Air Scrubber.
  • Take out this filter by pulling the four corners of it.
  • For model X-2380,X-2580 X-3380,X-3580.

Clean the filters

  • Nylon Mesh Filters/Washable Filters: These filters are washable with water. Use a vacuum or clean cloth to remove loose debris. And then further clean the filter with water. Use a cloth to remove the water on the filter and dry it naturally in the air. If filter clean/change light illuminates, you might need to clean the filter.
  • Pleated Media Filters: This filter is not washable. Use a vacuum to remove loose debris. If filter clean/change light still illuminates, you might need to replace the filter.
  • Carbon Filters: This filter is not washable. Use a vacuum to remove loose debris. Lay it flat on a clean and dry surface under the sun for 3 hours. Sunshine will help remove various substance absorbed in the carbon with an appropriate temperature. If filter clean/change light still illuminates or a decline of effectiveness is noted, you might need to replace the filter.
  • HEPA Filters: This filter is not washable or reusable. Highly concentrated particles are captured by the HEPA filter and cleaning this filter can be hazardous to human health and contaminate the nearby environment. You must replace the filter if all the other filters are clean and however the filter clean/change light still illuminates.

Filter storage

  • When not in use for a long time, you should store the filter separately from the machine.
  • Always clean the filters before storage. Place the filters in a sealed plastic bag and store it in a dry and cool indoor place.

WARNING: DISPOSAL OF FILTERS NO LONGER IN USE
The particles captured by a used filter can cause adverse human health effects and contaminate the nearby environment once the filter is exposed to the open air. Adequate personal protection equipment (PPE) is required during the whole process, for example, industry approved masks, eye protectors, gloves and coveralls. You should place the used filters in a sealed plastic bag before disposing. Follow local disposal regulations.

Reload the filters
To ensure the best efficiency and lifespan, each filter must be reloaded in a correct position, sequence and orientation.

Outer Nylon Mesh Filter

  • The Outer Nylon Mesh Filter (if applicable) must be placed on the intake.

Other Filters

  • Other filters must be loaded inside the Air Scrubber.
  • Filters to check the installation sequence.

Last Stage Filter:

  • On one of the side of the last stage filter, there is an EVA sealing pad around the frame.
  • The last stage filter must be loaded with EVA side facing the machine housing.
  • The EVA sealing pad ensures that all the air is filtered.

Tips:

  • On one of the side of each filter, there is a label with an arrow showing the airflow direction.
  • When placing the filter, the side with label should face up. The arrow on the label should point to the blue housing.
