I. INTRODUCTION
NOW YOU CAN BREATHE A LOT EASIER... you and
everyone else who breathe the air cleaned
electronically by SMOKEETER. Your new electronic
air cleaner is the most advanced product of its type on
the market today. As you begin its operation, we
would like to remind you of a few important facts.
First, we appreciate your business... and because we
appreciate your business, we have manufactured an
electronic air cleaner worthy of your consideration.
Your unit is designed and engineered to rigid
specifications incorporating the latest technological
advances. It is built using the highest grade materials
available. It is subjected to rigorous quality control
checks before it leaves our factory.And, SMOKEETER is
backed by a factory warranty as described on the
back cover.
Second, like any piece of precision equipment,
your SMOKEETER needs periodic maintenance.
Properly cared for, it will operate at peak efficiency for
many years to come.
Finally, while we hope you never have any prob-
lems, United Air Specialists (UAS) is always ready
to lend assistance. We have factory-trained distrib-
utors worldwide. Should you need information or
service, contact your local distributor or Customer
Service at United Air Specialists, Inc., 4440 Creek
Road, Cincinnati, Ohio 45242, 1-800-252-4647,

II. INSPECTION NOTE
Upon receipt of your unit, check for any shipping
damage. A damaged carton indicates that the equip-
ment may have received rough handling during ship-
ping that may have caused internal damage. Notify
your delivery carrier and enter a claim if any damage
is found.
III. HOWYOUR SMOKEETER
WORKS
The motor/blower draws the contaminated air through
an aluminum mesh prefilter, trapping the larger
particles. As the smaller particles enter the ionizer
section, they are given an intense positive charge.
Entering the cell section, they are collected by the
charged plates. Clean air is exhausted and
redistributed by adjustable diffuser vanes. An optional
carbon afterfilter aids in controlling odor.
1. PREFILTER(S) — evenly distributes the air across the
ionizing section to maximize efficiency. It traps the
larger particles that could short out the components.
2. IONIZER(S) — is made up of fine tungsten wires
supported between metal plates. When a high voltage is
applied to these parts, a “corona” field is generated
which imparts a high voltage charge on particles that
pass through it.
3. COLLECTION CELL(S) — is made up of a series of flat
metal plates. These plates act like a magnet and attract
the charged particles, removing them from the air. The
plates are alternately charged positive and ground. The
positive plates repel the particles while the ground
plates attract them, yielding a very high efficiency.
4. AFTERFILTER(S) — aids in air distribution to help
maintain high efficiency (carbon optional).
5. POWER PACK — the energy limiting power pack
provides 11,000 volts DC to the ionizer(s) and 5,500
volts DC to the collection cell(s) and is self-regulating
for voltage input variations from -30% to +13% of
nominal rating. In the event of an overload condition, the
power pack automatically de-energizes then resets
itself when the overload is corrected. Total current of the
high voltages is limited to a maximum of 5 milliamperes
to assure both equipment and personnel safety. An
internal resistor bleeds off the residual charge on the
cell(s) and ionizer(s) when power is removed from the
power pack.
6. MOTOR/BLOWER — air movement is produced by
a direct drive, centrifugal-type blower. The blower is
driven by a heavy-duty, thermally-protected 1⁄2horse-
power motor.
7. DIFFUSER VANES — four-way diffusers, standard
equipment on every unit, allow the most effective clean
airflow pattern possible.
