Air Purifier Mini Introduction
Overview of the purifier, hose setup, safe positioning, airflow and filter maintenance.
Introduction
The DTF Warehouse Air Purifier Mini is a compact extraction and filtration unit designed for small to medium DTF curing ovens. It uses dual purification filters to help remove fumes produced during the DTF curing process.
The purifier is supplied with an adjustable air hose and is designed to be positioned close enough to the curing oven to achieve effective suction without exposing the purifier directly to excessive heat.
Important safety information
You must read the supplied warning and operating instructions before using the Air Purifier Mini.
Leave approximately a 2-inch gap between the curing oven exhaust opening and the purifier intake / hose pickup. Do not place or seal the air purifier inlet directly over the curing oven exhaust hole.
Positioning the purifier intake directly over the oven exhaust can expose the purifier to excessive heat. This can create a heat risk and may melt or damage internal components inside the purifier.
First steps
- Remove all packaging and check the purifier, power cable, hose and filters for transit damage.
- Read the supplied warning and operating instructions before plugging the machine in.
- Place the purifier on a stable surface near the curing oven.
- Use only the amount of hose required to reach the oven exhaust area. Avoid using unnecessary extra hose.
- Keep the hose as straight and supported as possible. Excess tubing can bend or sag under its own weight and reduce airflow.
- When assembling the hose, gently warm the receiving end of the tubing with a hair dryer until it becomes flexible enough for the fitting to pop into place.
- Do not use an open flame and do not overheat the tubing during assembly.
- Position the intake / hose pickup approximately 2 inches away from the curing oven exhaust opening. Do not seal it directly over the exhaust hole.
- Plug the purifier into the correct power supply and switch it on.
- Start the purifier at around 60% power, then adjust until efficient suction of the curing fumes is achieved.
- Check that the hose is not kinked, flattened or bending sharply while the purifier is running.
Quick notes
- Read the supplied warning before operating.
- Use only the hose length required to reach the oven.
- Keep the hose as straight as possible to maintain airflow.
- Leave roughly a 2-inch gap from the oven exhaust.
- Never place the purifier intake directly over the hot exhaust opening.
- Start at approximately 60% power and adjust until efficient suction is achieved.
- Replace internal filters roughly every 3-4 months, or sooner with heavier use.
FAQs
How close should the purifier be to the oven exhaust?+
Leave approximately a 2-inch gap between the oven exhaust opening and the purifier intake / hose pickup. The purifier should be close enough to capture the fumes efficiently without being positioned directly over the hot exhaust opening.
What power setting should I use?+
We recommend starting at around 60% power and then adjusting the purifier until efficient suction of the curing fumes is achieved.

Installation guide
- Read the supplied warning and instructions before beginning installation.
- Position the purifier on a stable surface close to your curing oven.
- Plan the shortest practical hose route between the purifier and oven exhaust area.
- Use only the amount of tubing required to reach the exhaust area. Unnecessary excess hose can bend or collapse under its own weight and restrict suction.
- Before fitting the tubing, gently warm the receiving end with a hair dryer. The warmth will soften the tubing and allow the fitting to pop into place more easily.
- Use only gentle heat from the hair dryer. Do not use an open flame or overheat the tubing.
- Once connected, check that the hose runs smoothly without sharp bends, kinks or flattened sections.
- Position the intake / hose pickup roughly 2 inches away from the curing oven exhaust hole.
- Do not place the purifier inlet directly over or seal it against the oven exhaust opening.
- Plug the purifier into the correct power supply and switch it on.
- Set the purifier to approximately 60% and check the airflow.
- Increase or decrease the setting as required until the fumes are being drawn efficiently into the purifier.
Heat warning: The intake must not sit directly over the curing oven exhaust hole. Hot exhaust air can create a heat risk and may melt or damage internal components inside the purifier. Maintain the recommended gap and follow the supplied warning at all times.
Hose setup
- Shortest practical hose route.
- No unnecessary excess tubing.
- No sharp bends or kinks.
- Support the hose if its own weight causes it to sag.
- Warm the receiving end gently with a hair dryer during assembly.
Correct positioning
Aim for approximately a 2-inch gap between the curing oven exhaust and the purifier intake / hose pickup. The aim is to capture the fumes without putting the purifier directly in the oven's hot exhaust stream.

Frequently asked questions
How much tubing should I use?+
Use only the amount of tubing required to reach the curing oven exhaust area. Avoid leaving unnecessary extra tubing between the purifier and oven.
Too much hose can sag, bend or kink under its own weight. This restricts airflow and can reduce the purifier's ability to draw curing fumes efficiently.
Why do I need to leave a gap from the oven exhaust?+
Leave approximately a 2-inch gap between the oven exhaust opening and the purifier intake / hose pickup.
Placing the intake directly over the hot exhaust opening can expose the purifier to excessive heat, creating a heat risk and potentially melting or damaging internal components.
How often should I replace the filters?+
We recommend replacing the internal filters roughly every 3-4 months. Filters may need to be replaced sooner depending on how frequently the purifier is used and the volume of fumes it is filtering.
If suction becomes noticeably weaker or fumes are no longer being filtered as effectively, inspect the filters even if the normal replacement interval has not yet been reached.
Do I need to run the purifier at 100%?+
Not necessarily. We recommend starting at around 60% and adjusting the purifier until efficient suction is achieved.
The correct setting can depend on the position of the purifier, the hose route and the amount of fumes being produced by the oven.

Troubleshooting
The purifier does not seem to be pulling enough fumes. What should I check?+
Start by checking the hose route. Make sure the tubing is not kinked, flattened or bending sharply, and remove unnecessary excess tubing where possible.
Check that the intake is positioned close enough to the curing oven exhaust to capture the fumes while still maintaining approximately a 2-inch safety gap.
Start at around 60% power and increase the setting gradually until efficient suction is achieved. If airflow remains poor, inspect the internal filters because heavily used filters can reduce airflow.
The tubing keeps bending or collapsing. What should I do?+
Use only the amount of tubing required to reach the oven exhaust area. Leaving unnecessary extra hose allows the tubing to sag under its own weight and can create bends that restrict airflow.
Re-route the hose so it takes the shortest practical path and support it where necessary to prevent it from folding or collapsing.
The purifier feels too hot near the oven. What should I do?+
Switch the purifier and oven off and check the positioning before continuing.
The purifier intake / hose pickup should not be placed directly over or sealed against the curing oven exhaust opening. Maintain approximately a 2-inch gap so the purifier is not exposed directly to the oven's hot exhaust stream.
Direct heat exposure can create a heat risk and may melt or damage internal purifier components. Read the supplied warning before operating and contact DTF Warehouse support if you are unsure about the setup.
Fumes are no longer being filtered as effectively. What should I check?+
Check the hose for bends or restrictions and confirm that efficient suction is still being achieved. If the airflow path is clear, inspect the internal filters.
We recommend replacing the filters roughly every 3-4 months, or sooner depending on use. Heavy production can shorten the useful filter life.
