How It Works

IQAIR GC Series Room Air Cleaner,VOC,Multigas,AM,Chemisorber Diagram

  1. Air enters two openings at bottom of unit

  2. Air is pulled through a High Efficiency Particulate Pre-Filter, which is 98% efficient at 0.3 microns. This has the benefit of prolonging the life and effectiveness of the gas phase filters, post filters and protects the motor. Additionally, this filter reduces maintenance costs by having the ability to be changed separately from the other filters.

  3. A powerful and efficient centrifugal fan generates air flow through the unit.

  4. Air enters the Gas Phase Filter Cartridges with 11lbs. to 13lbs. of media per unit. Four media type options provide the opportunity to select the appropriate media according to the gas and odor problem.

  5. Four Electrostatically Charged Post Filters, 98% Efficient at 0.3 microns.

  6. Ultra clean low turbulent and low velocity air is returned to the room via the diffuser.

Certified Performance

IQAir GC Series Portable Room Air Cleaner Performance CertificateIQAir GC Series Portable Room Air Cleaner Particle Scan

IQAir GC Series Portable Room Air Cleaner Performance Certificate

IQAir air cleaners go through a stringent performance certification process when assembly is complete. Each unit is individually tested with a sensitive particle counter for particle capture and flow meters for air delivery rate.

Each unit receives a Certificate of Performance, which shows the actual efficiency and air delivery rate of that IQAir unit. This provides the user with a guarantee that their individual IQAir unit performs as advertised.

Powerful Backward Curved Fan Casters for Easy Mobility Unique 3-D Seal
IQAir systems have many unique and high performance features and design details:
  • Quiet design through isolated high efficiency motor and fan assembly located between noise absorbing filters. Eight motor vibration dampers and double wall housing construction also contribute to unit quietness.

  • The motor is located before the final filters in the air stream. This ensures all particles emitted by the motor will also be captured by the air cleaner and not released into the air.

  • EvenFlow 320° diffuser returns cleaned air to the room without causing uncomfortable air drafts.

  • Detachable power cord and 4 roller caster allow for easy mobility of the IQAir unit when movement is desired.

  • Computer designed super efficient fan is the most powerful in its class. The fan is individually balanced and incorporates steel ball bearings for lasting durability and quietness.

IQAir HealthPro HEPA Air Cleaner Filter Sealing

  • IQAir systems feature a patented triple sealing technology. First, a unique process ensures that the filter media is 100% sealed in the filter frame. Second, a patented 3D UltraSeal ensures perfect sealing between the filter frame and the unit housing by applying sealing pressure on three sides. Lastly, individual seals on each housing module ensure an air tight housing.

Electronic Filter Life Monitoring Integrated Daily & Weekly Timer Fan Speed & Air Flow Display
IQAir units feature an advanced control panel with a 2-line LCD display providing various system information and programming capabilities:
  • Intelligent Filter Life Monitor - Uses information on time period the unit is on, fan speed, pollution load and air quality settings to predict the replacement time for filters. Remaining filter life can be displayed for each filter. Filter status LED lights change color from green to orange to red to signal filter replacement.

  • Advanced Fan Control - Numerous capacitors regulate fan speed by regulating motor voltage. This provides maximum energy efficiency at all six fan speeds and no humming noise.

  • Integrated Timer - Each IQAir unit can be programmed to run automatically. Set the unit to run and shut off when desired by time of day and day of the week. A countdown timer of 1-72 hours allows the unit to run for a fixed period before switching off.

  • Filter Load Index - Allows the user to view and program the fine dust, coarse dust and gaseous pollution indices according to their unique environment, which the unit uses to calculate the load on the filter elements and the estimated filter life.

  • Remote Control - change fan speeds, activate the timer and turn the unit on/off from up to 30 ft. away.


Maintenance

Snap Open Locking Arms Remove Top Air Diffuser

IQAir GC Series Portable Room Air Cleaner Maintenance

Access Bottom Pre-Filter

IQAir systems have no maintenance requirements other than filter replacement. No tools are required for filter changes due to the modular design. The filter change process is as follows:

1. Open Locking Arms by pushing outward one side at a time.

2. Pull both locking arms outward evenly. This raises the top modules from the lower prefilter module.

3. Remove the top diffuser to access the gas phase filter cartridges. To remove the prefilter, slide housing out and tilt up.

Independent filter stages allow you to replace each filter individually as needed. Each stage has a different expected filter life, so this prevents the purchase of unnecessary filters, allows maximum performance and keeps maintenance costs as low as possible.
