Unpacking

If there is any visible external damage to the pallet or box, note this on the shippers paperwork prior to accepting the delivery. If the contents of the pallet are visibly damaged, refuse to accept the shipment and advise Air-Care immediately. Remove the outer box and inspect for damage.

Report all damage immediately to your carrier. If special set-up instructions are required, they will be taped to the outside of the equipment or in the “Operating” section of this manual. Inspect all of the packing material for small parts before discarding packaging material.

Check that all parts are present
  1. Triton 440 Main Assembly.
    2. 15′ Grounded Power Cord.
    3. Open the Back Door and Check for the Filters Inside:
         a. Pre-Filter (5 extra filters are included)
         b. HEPA Filter

Safety

Always use safe and common sense precautions when using Air-Care equipment. Do not block walkways with equipment. Remove delicate and breakable articles from the immediate air flow area. The following are precautions that should be reviewed by all persons who will be involved in the cleaning activity.

• Other than the filters, there are no user serviceable components in the Triton 440. Only trained technicians should attempt to make internal repairs on this equipment.

• Always turn off the main power knob on the front of the unit, or disconnect the power before opening or removing the back or removing the filters from the Triton 440.
• Be sure all power cords and electrical extensions are rated to meet or exceed the original Air-Care power cords (16/3 grounded gauge), and inspect all AC power plug to be sure the ground pin is in place.
• All Air-Care equipment is designed for US standard 115 volt, 60 Hz AC. Most Air-Care equipment can be special ordered to meet other worldwide standards for a reasonable price and delivery schedule. The Triton 440 can be for 120/220 Volt 50/60 Hz.

Filters

Pre-Filter (16″ x 19″ x 1″)

The pre-filter has three layers of cleaning. This filter collects most of the larger particles that enter the purifier. 

Polypropylene Mesh. This captures many larger particulates using static electricity to capture the smaller particles. 

Polyester Fiber, Non-Woven. This layer captures additional particles. 

(Part Number F0068)

HEPA FILTER (16″ x 19″ x 2.5″)

The HEPA Filter included in your purifier is a medical grade filter used in hospitals and other medical facilities due to its ability to remove 99.97% of dust, pollen, mold, and bacteria down to .3 microns. (Part Number FG0189)

Operating the Triton 440

1. Place the unit in the desired location

2. Before operating the unit, check to see if the fan speed knob is in the OFF POSITION (“0” on the gage)

3. Plug one end of the electrical cord to the socket in the back of the Triton 440

4. Place the other end of the electrical cord into an electrical outlet

5. Turn the speed knob clockwise to your desired air flow setting. 

Calculate Room Size for Effective Purification

Air Exchange based on room size

The size and number of machines depends on the volume of the space being cleaned as well as how many Air Changes per Hour (ACH). As a starting point, calculate the square footage of the room or rooms, multiply by the ceiling height. It is generally recommended to have 3 to 4 air changes per hour in occupied areas

SMALL ROOMS 10’ X 10’ X 8’ = 800 CUBIC FEET = 32 EXCHANGES OF AIR PER HOUR

MEDIUM ROOMS 20’ X 20’ X 8’ = 3200 CUBIC FEET = 8 EXCHANGES OF AIR PER HOUR

LARGE ROOMS 20’ X 40’ X 8’ = 6400 CUBIC FEET = 4 EXCHANGES OF AIR PER HOUR

EXTRA LARGE ROOMS 30’ X 40’ X 8’ = 9600 CUBIC FEET = 3 EXCHANGES OF AIR PER HOUR

The Triton 440 circulates ambient air through its filter system and exhausts clean air into that environment.

The Triton 440 is small enough to be placed in a corner of a room or beside a piece of furniture and quiet enough to not hinder normal conversation.

Multiple units can be used in larger areas to distribute the filtration without requiring ducting in the room.

The size and number of machines depends on the volume of the space being cleaned as well as how many Air Changes per Hour (ACH) required. As a starting point, calculate the square footage of the room or rooms, multiply by the ceiling height. It is generally recommended to have 3 to 4 air changes per hour in occupied areas. To convert this requirement to a Cubic Feet per Minute (CFM) spec for the Air Purifier, multiply the Volume of the work area by 4 (or 3) changes/Hour then divide by 60 Minutes/Hour.

(Length x Width x Height x 4)/60 = cfm

To calculate the required CFM to filter the air in a room that is 15 feet wide by 40 feet long with an 8-foot ceiling, plug in the size of the room in the formulas for either 3 or 4 air changes per hour (ACH)

4 ACH:  (15 x 40 x 8 x 4)/60 = 320 cfm

4 ACH:  (15 x 40 x 11 x 4)/60 = 440 cfm

3 ACH:  (15 x 40 x 8 x 3)/60 = 240cfm

3 ACH:  (15 x 40 x 11 x 4)/60 = 330cfm

As the filters become loaded, the effective cfm will drop slightly, so be sure you have a little more capacity than the minimum.

Air Purifiers may be required to circulate and filter the air within one or more of the contaminated areas to be collect contaminates as they are released into the air, as well as making certain there are no “dead spots” in the contained area where there could be a contaminate buildup.

Purifier Maintenance

Cleaning the Outside of the Purifier

The outside of your purifier should be cleaned occasionally with germicidal soap and water. 

The Pre-Filter

The prefilter/filter pad will most likely be the part that is contaiminated the quickest as it traps larger particulates in the air. 

Replacing the Filter Pad

It is recommended that you wear protective clothing and gloves as this filter will most likely be very dirty with captured contaminants. 

1. Remove the polypropylene mesh

2. Remove the dirty pad and dispose

3. Wash the polypropylene mesh and galvanized metal mesh screen.

4. Insert new pad and return the polypropylene mesh after cleaning it.
