All references to model 980 1 S-Hook throughout this users guide pertain to both of the 4 Mounting Screws models, unless otherwise noted. 1 Certificate of Calibration Proprietary technology provides constantly balanced ionization for consistent control of surface charges. The Ionized Air Gun virtually never needs adjustment and requires very little maintenance. Compact and lightweight, the console for the Ionized Air Gun can be mounted almost anywhere on the workstation for easy access. It connects to a supply of clean, dry air or nitrogen, and an internal disposable filter collects particles from the gas supply. The electrical feed from the console to the Ionized Air Gun is incorporated into the light, flexible air hose. The Ionized Air Gun itself is very lightweight and ergonomically designed for long-term user comfort and efficient operation. The console, Ionized Air Gun, and air hose are all designed to be static-dissipative and ESD-safe. The Ionized Air Gun helps reduce a static charge of 1000V to 100V in less than 1 second at a distance of 6 inches (15 cm) and 30 psi (2 bars) inlet pressure when tested in accordance with the ESD Association ionization standard ANSI/ESD-S3.1. Balance (offset voltage) is within 30V at a distance of 6 inches (15 cm).

The compressed gas supply must be clean dry air or nitrogen supplied by a delivery system that utilizes a refrigerated dryer or equivalent water removal to achieve a line pressure limit of about 550 ppm water vapor by weight at 35F (1.66C) Dew Point. To prevent particles from entering the console, a 2 micron coalescing filter or better is recommended upstream of the gun console. Note that the filter in the console Point this end to collects small residual particles and aerosols and does the gas supply not act as a primary filter. The console filter is rated at 0.01 micron for particulates and is effective down to Figure 2. Securing the console to the mounting plate 0.008 micron for aerosols. MOUNTING TO A GAS SUPPLY An adequate filter that can be recommended for the inlet When a gas supply is close to the work area and of the Ionized Air Gun would be a Finite Filter Grade 10 fitted with a U.S. standard industrial interchange quick Media Specification. This provides a 95% coalescing coupling, you may attach it to the console directly using efficiency for aerosols with a 0.7 micron (and greater) the included female quick connect coupling. If a U.S. particle retention.

Push the filter gently until Guns hose, orient the console so that the open end the metal release tab clicks and locks the filter into that accepts the filtered air hose to the hand unit points place. toward the work area, and the male connector points toward the gas supply. Prior to mounting, plug the RJ-11 cable from the power supply into the jack located on the back of the console. Use the included screws to attach the mounting plate to the threaded holes on the back of the console. Use suitable screws and fasteners to attach the mounting plate to a flat surface such as a wall or the back of a workbench. When mounting to a hollow wall, be sure to use adequate screws and wall anchors to ensure Metal release tab stability of the installation. Figure 3.
