G5955 Heavy-Duty Hanging Air Filter -9 Site Planning Site planning is an important step to maximize the effectiveness of the hanging air filter. Air circulation must be thought out and all obstructions to the air path considered. Think of air circulation in terms of the circular motion of the air before and after the air filter. The air entering the filter is exhausted at a higher velocity than that entering it. Consequently, the exhaust can have an effect on the pattern of circulation. For this reason the G5955 Hanging Air Filter is supplied with a directional vent which allows the user to direct the flow of circulation. However, while this will optimize a good layout as in Figure 4, it will have a limited effect when the hanging air filter is placed incorrectly in the room (Figure 5). When placed too close to obstructions, the velocity of the air is lost and circulation is diminished. Below is a list of things to keep in mind when selecting a spot for the air filter. • Study your shop layout and try to determine the best location for the hanging air filter. Air flow that is obstructed will cause a short cycle effect producing unsatisfactory results. There must be a clearance of at least 12" from any obstructions in front and back of the unit. • Try to place the air filter in front of high dust producers like sanders or near areas where sanding will take place. • Do not place the hanging air filter where garage doors may pass closely or where it may impede transport or movement any other object. • Try to place the unit where it is easy to access for turning it on, cleaning and maintenance. Filter Filter Figure 4. Good circulation. The air filter placement promotes circular air motion. Figure 5. Poor circulation. Placed too close to the wall, the air circulation short cycles leaving much of the room unfiltered. -10- G5955 Heavy-Duty Hanging Air Filter Filter Capacity The G5955 Hanging Air Filter is designed to recirculate the entire volume of air in a room measuring 25' X 25' X 8' approximately 6 times in one hour. It is recommended that the volume of air in your room be recirculated 6-8 times every hour for best filtering effect. Hence, rooms with a larger volume than the one listed above will require 2 or more air filters to achieve proper filtering. The following is a formula for calculating the recirculating rate for a given volume: Step 1. Calculate how long it takes to circulate all the volume of air in a room with the hanging air filter; by dividing 60 minutes by the amount of time it takes to circulate the volume once. The rate of air movement for the air filter is 510 cubic feet per minute. W X L X H = Minutes for circulating 1 time 510 Step 2. Calculate how many times per hour the volume is recirculated through the hanging air filter. The result is is listed as times per hour. Step 1: 25' X 25' X 8' = 5000 = 9.8 Minutes 510 510 Step 2: 60 = 6.1 Times per Hour 9.8 Mounting Preparation It is very important that the hanging air filter be supported properly. Please use these guidelines when preparing to mount the unit: • For the sake of clarity, the face where the mounting brackets attach will be called the top throughout the manual. The hanging air filter can be mounted on its side, top or at an angle but it can only be secured by the mounting brackets on its top. • Make sure that an electrical outlet with a properly grounded receptacle is available at the location you choose. • The hanging air filter must be supported by joists or studs. These joists/studs should be capable of supporting at least 100 lbs. Do Not attach the hanging air filter to sheet rock, press board or paneling. These cannot support the filter and it may fall. • Avoid hitting your head on the hanging air filter. Make sure there is enough clearance between the unit and the ground; especially important in a basement. If possible, position the air filter in an area that has little foot traffic but still offers easy access to the switch and filters.

Attach one mounting bracket to each corner of the hanging air filter using the 8 hex bolts and the holes on the edge of the box. Make sure to mount each bracket below the edge of the box as in Figure 6. This will ensure it is properly supported. Figure 6. Mounting brackets attached. The hanging air filter may fall and cause serious injury if it is not properly mounted. These mounting brackets must be attached to the bottom edge on the upper lip of hanging air filter to be safely supported. The hanging air filter may fall and cause serious injury if it is not properly mounted. DO NOT fasten it to sheet rock, press board, paneling or anything other than joists ...
