FILTER MAINTENANCE
When performing filter maintenance always wear proper personal protective equipment and clothing. Always follow safe
working practices including proper disposal and handling of used filters in accordance with all federal, state and local
regulations.
If a significant decrease in air flow is detected it is time to replace the prefilters. The #PS1000 is equipped with two
prefilters #860958 1" Filter Pad (primary) and #860959 2" Pleated Filter (secondary). Replace these filters by following
the filter set-up procedures on page 4 of this manual. To avoid cross contamination these filters should be changed at
the end of every job.
The model #PS1000 Air Cleaning System is equipped with a red "Replace HEPA" light, located on the control panel of
the unit. When the red illuminates fully (in highest speed position), HEPA filter maintenance is required and the HEPA
filter will need to be replaced. (This filter cannot be cleaned or reused. Dispose of properly).
WARNING: The "Replace HEPA" light indicates loss in air flow only and alerts the operator that the HEPA filter is loaded
and needs to be replaced. This light does not indicate and has no bearing on the level of filtration that the machine is
operating at. Therefore, when using this equipment in highly sensitive areas or when any release of particulate above
and beyond the minimum efficiency of 99.97% at 0.3 microns would be detrimental and harmful to humans, plants or
property; it is strongly recommended that these units be individually tested prior to their use and monitored during
operation.
NOTE: FILTERS SHOULD BE REPLACED IMMEDIATELY IF TORN OR DAMAGED.
USE OF ANY OTHER FILTERS THAN ORIGINAL NIKRO REPLACEMENT PARTS VOIDS THE PRODUCT
WARRANTY AND PERFORMANCE CLAIMS
TO AVOID CROSS CONTAMINATION CHANGE ALL FILTERS AFTER EVERY REMEDIATION
JOB AND CLEAN ENTIRE UNIT THOROUGHLY BEFORE REMOVING IT FROM THE CONTAINMENT AREA.
