Issues with Purex Alpha 400 Air Filter

[Albus]

I’ve renamed this thread for archival posterity. If there is a more official way to go about this, please let me know. Thank you to everyone who offered suggestions and support. I’m looking forward to sharing my work once everything is operational.

There is an entire section missing at the top of the machine. I’m smelling particulates because nothing is going through the filter.

Kind of a big thing to forget, but everyone makes mistakes…

@Albus

…he told me to open up the machine and attempt to assess, and possibly rewire, some of the electrical components. He sent along instructions that had big red letters at the top saying:

Warning this procedure should only be performed by a qualified
electrical technician. Procedure requires working with powered circuits.
There is a risk of electrical shock.

Never mind what I said before. I think they’re out to get you.

Glad you got it going. Tough troubleshooting story, but thanks for documenting it, including and especially the “solved.”
