The Axair PH7 is an all-season unit for air humidification

and air purification.

Via the level regulating valve (2) the water flows from the

water tank (1) to the base tub (3). The impeller (4) sucks up

the water from the base tub and projects fine drops towards

the activated charcoal vaporizer mat (5).

The fan (7) located in the upper part of the fan housing takes

in ambient air. The filter (6) purifies the air which is then

moistened by the activated charcoal vaporizer mat. Finally,

the purified and moistened air is exhausted to the room, via

the slots in the upper part of the housing.

Note: If the Axair PH7 is operated without water it works as

air purifier only and no humidification takes place.

3.3 Unpacking, checking the delivery and

removing the transport lock

•Unpack the Axair PH7.

Important! The original packaging of the Axair PH7

was designed for optimum safety during transportation.

Please preserve the original packing material as well as

the transport lock (see below) in case you once have to

return the unit for some reason.

•Lift up the hood. Pull out the mains cable from the cable

duct in the air intake screen and carefully lift up the fan

housing. Then, remove the transport lock “A”.

•Check the delivery for completeness. The Axair PH7

is supplied ready for operation, equiped with a filter

(PH7: Triplex filter, PH7 Plus: Hepa filter) and the acti-

vated charcoal vaporizer mat.

Check the equipment for damage. Please report any

damage to your Axair supplier and to the carriers, as

required.

•Put on the fan housing. Lead the mains cable via the

cable duct in the air intake screen down to the base tub.

Then, put on the hood.

4Notes on correct location

Caution! The Axair PH7 must not be installed

in hazardous locations and the unit must not be used

in rooms where water splashes may occur.

Please observe the following notes for the correct position-

ing of the Axair PH7:

Important! Empty the base tub before moving the unit,

otherwise water could possibly escape.

–To ensure proper operation place the Axair PH7 on a

solid horizontal surface only.

–To make sure the air is entirely recirculated do not

locate the Axair PH7 in narrow recesses, behind

curtains etc. Keep a minimum space of 0.5 m be-

tween the unit and nearby walls or furniture.

Make sure the air intake and exhaust slots are not

covered thus ensuring the purified and moistened air

can leave the top of the unit without hindrance.

–Do not locate the PH7 close to cold outer walls and do

not expose the unit to direct sunlight or powerful heat

sources (lamps, radiators, etc.).

–If the Axair PH7 is used in a particular location for an

extended period the filter and the activated charcoal

vaporizer mat absorbs the odour of the room. When

moving the unit to another location, the Axair PH7 emits

the odour of the previous room for a certain time. This

may be inconvenient if the unit is moved from a room

heavily loaded with smell to an almost neutral environ-

ment.

Note: if the unpleasant odour does not disappear after a

certain period, the filter and the activated charcoal va-

porizer mat must be replaced.

5Operation

Filling the water tank

5 6

1. Switch off the Axair PH7 via the On/Off key and remove

the mains plug from the wall outlet).

2. Swivel up the carrying handles of the water tank and

remove the water tank to the top.

3. Swivel down the carrying handles, and place the water

tank onto the side with the carrying handles. Then,

remove the level regulating valve.

4. Thoroughly rinse the water tank and the level regulating

valve with hot water, then fill the water tank with cold tap

water. Do not use additives.

5. Screw in the level regulating valve.

6. Turn the water tank, then swivel up the carrying handles.

Carefully insert the water tank into the unit, then swivel

down the carrying handles. The water now flows into the

base tub.

Connect the unit to the mains

•Make sure the required supply voltage (see type plate

inside the housing) matches the local mains voltage.

To do so, disassemble the fan housing, check the spec-

ification on the type plate, then assemble the fan hous-

ing again. Please follow the information on dismantling

and assembly given chapter 6.2.

Caution! Do not connect the Axair PH7 to the

mains if the voltage does not match!

–Important! Never move the Axair PH7 if the water tank

or the base tub are filled with water. The water could

escape and moisten the filter thus making it unusable.

–Caution, fire hazard! Make sure the air intake and

exhaust slots are not covered by objects such as clothes

when the unit is in operation as this could cause danger-

ous accumulation of heat inside the unit.

•Connect the mains plug to the wall outlet.

Recommendation! Connect the Axair PH7 to a wall

socket featuring a fault current breaker (if available).

Switching on the unit/Setting the fan speed

Switch on the Axair PH7 via the On/Off

key. The unit starts running at the fan

speed selected last (the corresponding

fan speed LED lights).

Press the fan speed key to select the

desired fan speed according to the fol-

lowing table.

(at 45%hr and 23°C)

Notes on operation

–Check the level of the water tank on a regular basis and

fill up as required (see section “Refilling the water tank”).

Recommendation: for optimum purification the Axair

PH7 should always be operated with water. As an

exception to the rule, the unit may be operated without

water in rooms that are rarely aired thus preventing

excessive humidification (however, this should not be

done in the heating period). In this case the Axair PH7

works as air purifier only.

–Important! Never operate the PH7 without filter and

activated charcoal vaporizer mat.

–Caution, risk of damage! Do not insert foreign objects

into the air intake and exhaust slots.

Putting the unit out of operation

•Switch the Axair PH7 off, remove the mains plug from

the wall outlet and wait until the fan comes to a stop.

In case you want to put the Axair PH7 out of operation for an

extended period:

•Empty the water tank and the base tub. Clean the com-

ponents as described in chapter 6.2. Make sure the

water tank and the base tub are absolutely dry, then

reassemble the unit. Store the unit in an appropriate,

dust-free location.

6Maintenance and cleaning
