SMOG-HOG NOMENCLATURE
SMOG-HOG electronic air cleaners are available in a
variety of configurations and sizes. Codes shown below
identify characteristics which might be built into a given
unit. This model number completely identifies the design
and can be found on the unit nameplate. For example, a
model designated SH-10-PE-H could be defined
according to descriptions listed below (see bold):
SH -SMOG-HOG Series
10 -Airflow in 100s of CFM (i.e., 10 ≅1,000 CFM, etc.)
P-Polyphase, external high voltage wiring
C-
Corded (10' power cord) and external high voltage wiring
E-External high voltage wiring (internal power pack)
H-High static pressure blower◊
DP - Dual polarity
XB - Without blower
S-Stacked modules (SH-40/50 only)
T-Te e-shaped unit (SH-40/50 only)
◊Not available on SH-50 models
Models SH-6, SH-10, SH-20, SH-40 & SH-50
This type of SMOG-HOG Industrial Air Cleaner is a
self-contained, two-stage, Penney-type, electrostatic
precipitator complete with fully-interlocked, energy-limiting,
UL recognized power pack, mechanical prefilter, ionizer,
collection cell, afterfilter, blower assembly, indicator lights,
interlock switches and push-to-test buttons. Models
available include:
SH-6-C SH-20-PE

Models SH-10-XB, SH-20-XB, SH-40-S-XB &
SH-50-S-XB
This type of SMOG-HOG Industrial Air Cleaner is a
self-contained, two-stage, Penney-type, electrostatic
precipitator complete with fully-interlocked, energy-limiting
power pack, mechanical prefilter, ionizer, collection cell,
afterfilter, indicator lights, interlock switches and push-to-

Models SH-10, SH-20, SH-40 and SH-50 or in a ducted
application where a blower is included in the existing
ventilation system. Models available include:
SH-10-PE-XB SH-40-PE-S-XB

I. INSPECTION OF EQUIPMENT
Upon receipt of your SMOG-HOG, check carefully for any
possible shipping damage. Any damage to carton, skid,
etc. may be a warning to you that rough handling has
caused internal damage. Notify your delivery carrier and
enter a claim if any damage is found.
II. INSTALLATION PLANNING
UNDUCTED OR AREA CAPTURE: Consideration must be
given to the placement of the precipitator to maximize
efficiency. The number of units required to clean the air will
depend on the layout of the room and the concentration of
pollutants. Because it is necessary to develop proper
airflow patterns, the placement and number of
precipitators should be as suggested by UAS or your local
SMOG-HOG representative.
DUCTED OR SOURCE CAPTURE: When your
SMOG-HOG is used as a ducted source collector, the
enclosure or pick-up hood design is important for
adequate capture of contaminants. Drive pulleys and
belts have been selected to provide proper airflow at the
design static pressure specified. Pulleys and belts should
not be replaced without first contacting UAS.
Allow at least 36" door swing and access clearance on the
door side of the unit. All models except the SH-6 require
18" clearance from the electrical junction box on top of the
unit to any overhead obstruction to allow adequate
access.
III. INSTALLATION
Carefully remove the unit from the shipping container,
again inspecting for shipping damage. For ease of
installation, open access door and remove the cell, ionizer
and filters from the cabinet.
Ceiling mounted units are suspended by means of 1⁄2"
threaded rods run through weld nuts in the top corners of
the units. (See page 4 for weld nut locations on all but XB
models†.) Additional support should be used for auxiliary
equipment or ductwork.
†NOTE: Weld nuts are not provided on XB units. These
units are to be supported with flat washers and 1⁄2"-13
nuts supplied by the installer.
Reinstall the components removed earlier to facilitate the
mounting of the unit.
Unit Mounting
Models SH-6, SH-10 and SH-20 are designed for
suspended mounting. They can be provided with eyebolts
for chain hanging, but the length of chain should be kept
at a minimum. The preferred method of hanging is with 1⁄2"
threaded rod through the top of the cabinet. If chain
is used, it should be of the welded link type, with a 2,000
lb. test strength or better. “S” hooks used for connections
should be closed. The chain should be hung vertically. If
any angle is introduced, the chain and fasteners should be
