AIR CLEANER MONITOR

The optional W8600F Air Cleaner

Monitor may be added to your air

cleaner system to provide convenient

indication of system performance. The

W8600F must be ordered seperately.

The W8600F is designed to mount next

to your thermostat, or in any convenient

location (such as a utility room) where it

can be seen as it monitors the air

cleaner's performance.

The four Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)

indicators are labeled ON, BATTERY,

SERVICE and FAULT.

• The ON indicator is active during

normal air cleaning operation. The system fan is also on when the air

cleaner is running.

• The BATTERY indicator is active when the W8600F battery is low.

• The SERVICE indicator is active when it is time to wash the air

cleaner prefilter(s) and cell(s). The time between cleanings is entered

into the W8600F at installation. To turn the SERVICE indicator off,

press the Reset button located at the bottom right of the W8600F.

• The FAULT indicator is active when there is extreme dirt loading,

electronic malfunction, constant arcing or other problems with the

high voltage output of the air cleaner power supply.

Air Cleaner Monitor

When the fan and air cleaner come on, the neon

indicator lights.

If your air cleaner is equipped with a wall-

mounted W8600F Air Cleaner Monitor (see page

2), the ON indicator will be active

whenever the

air cleaner is in operation

. Of course, the system

fan will also be running.

Set the ON-OFF switch in the power box to ON.

NOTE: Depress 1 for ON, 0 for OFF.

The air cleaner will now operate whenever your

furnace/air conditioning system fan operates. For

maximum air cleaning benefit and cleaner air

conditioner coils, leave the air cleaner switch ON

at all times and the fan switch on your thermostat

ON. Of course, continuous fan operation will add

to your electric bill each month.

You may hear a snapping (electrical arcing)

sound occasionally as the air cleaner operates.

This usually is caused by a larger dust particle

causing a high voltage discharge. The snapping

sound means that your air cleaner is working as it

should. To hear the snapping sound, momentarily

press the test button near the bottom of the door.

Use the test button any time you want to prove

air cleaner operation.

When the fan and air cleaner stops, the neon

light goes out, as does the ON indicator on the

W8600F. The air cleaner is off until the heating or

air conditioning and fan start again.

If you don’t want the air cleaner to run, set the

ON-OFF switch to OFF to turn off the air cleaner.

Your furnace and air conditioner will still operate

normally, but without the added benefit of air

cleaning. Normally, this switch should be ON at

all times.

For greatest benefit, the air cleaner should run

all the time. To do this, set the fan switch on

your thermostat to ON, and make sure the air

cleaner is switched ON. The fan and air cleaner

will run even when the furnace or air conditioner

is off.

NOTE: A manual fan switch may be built into

the furnace or furnace fan controller.

The air cleaner uses less power than a 40 watt

light bulb (two-cell model—33 watts; single cell

model—22 watts). The cost of running the

system fan will vary with the size of your fan

motor and the cost of electricity where you live.

Most air cleaner owners feel that the added cost

is more than offset by the added benefits of full

time air cleaning and full time air circulation.

You may feel that the room temperature stays

more even when the fan is always on.

Although the air cleaner is designed to be

efficient over a wide range of cell dirt loading

conditions, regular cleaning is your best

assurance of consistent performance. Also, a

very dirty cell and prefilter reduces air flow and,

in turn, reduces the efficiency of the furnace or

air conditioner. The cell wash reminder sched-

ule or the optional W8600F Air Cleaner Monitor

should be used to maintain a regular wash

schedule.

An activated carbon (charcoal) filter is some-

times installed downstream of the air cleaner to

help control odors. This filter should be changed

at least annually, or as recommended by the

filter manufacturer. Honeywell does not offer

carbon filters for this application.

Replace any

activated carbon

filters in the

ductwork

regularly

If your system includes an atomizing humidifier,

you may want to install a standard furnace filter

between the humidifier and the air cleaner. This

filter would keep the humidifier spray’s mineral

deposits from collecting on the air cleaner. This

filter should be checked regularly and changed

when it shows signs of mineral or dirt buildup. If

you do not install a filter, you will probably need

to wash the cell(s) and prefilter(s) more often to

remove the mineral buildup.

If an ultrasonic room humidifier is used often,

especially if filled with tap (undistilled) water, the

cell(s) and prefilter(s) will require more frequent

washing. A white residue will accumulate on the

cell(s) from the minerals in the water. This

residue may also contribute to "white dust"

(see p. 17).

All Honeywell whole house humidifiers may be

used in a system with the Honeywell Electronic

Air Cleaner without any additional filters or

system modification.

If you have a

humidifier

CAUTION

Sharp edges.

Can cause personal injury.

Carefully handle the cell(s) or wear protective

gloves to avoid cuts from the sharp metal

edges.

To ensure optimum performance from the air

cleaner, the cell(s) and prefilter(s) must be

cleaned regularly—every one to six months.

Washing frequency will vary depending on the

number of family members, pets, activities

(such as cooking or woodshop) and smoking

habits. Use the wash reminder schedule that

came with the air cleaner or the optional

W8600F Air Cleaner Monitor to help establish

and maintain a regular cleaning schedule.

Mount the wash reminder schedule in a

convenient location.

If your air cleaner has a W8600F Air Cleaner

Monitor, the SERVICE indicator will activate

when it is time to wash the cell(s) and

prefilter(s). Wash them following the instructions

starting on page 9. To turn the SERVICE

indicator off, press the reset button on the lower

right of the W8600F (see picture below).

You may consider washing your cell(s) and

prefilter(s) before the SERVICE indicator

activates if some activity in your home has

changed. This can include, but is not limited to

the following:

• Have the windows been open more often?

• Has someone been smoking more often?

• Has someone taken up a dust producing

hobby?

If this activity change is permanent, you may

want your installer to change the WASH

schedule that was entered into the W8600F

when it was installed.
