Delta 50-868 - Manual (Page 4)

INTRODUCTION
Model 50-868 Delta Air Cleaner is specifically designed to quietly circulate and filter non-metallic dust
which is generated throughout the work area. The Air Cleaner is furnished with two filters: a disposable
outer filter which filters out larger particles five microns in size, and a secondary filter which captures 91%
of the dust particles of one micron in size (one micron = one millionth of a meter). Because breathing micro-
scopic particles can be a potential health hazard, filtering microscopic dust particles offers a cleaner and
safer environment. This Air Cleaner will filter the air in a room measuring 20’ x 20’ x 8’ either 13, 16, or 18
times an hour, depending on the setting. If desired, multiple units can be used to filter larger areas. The Air
Cleaner is maintenance free. An occasional cleaning and/or replacement of filters is the only required
maintenance.
UNPACKING
The Air Cleaner is shipped complete in one shipping container. Carefully unpack the Air Cleaner and all loose
items from the shipping container.
DO NOT LIFT THE AIR CLEANER BY POWER CORD.

EXTENSION CORDS
Use proper extension cords. Make sure your extension
cord is in good condition and is a 3-wire extension
cord which has a 3-prong grounding type plug and
a 3-hole receptacle which will accept the machine’s
plug. When using an extension cord, be sure to use
one heavy enough to carry the current of the machine.
An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage,
resulting in loss of power and overheating. Fig. C shows
the correct gauge to use depending on the cord length.
If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the
gauge number, the heavier the cord.
