USER'S MANUAL FOR IONIZING AIR NOZZLES H / HS / HE

1. Introduction

Read this manual completely before you install and/or put this product into use.
Follow the instructions set out in this manual to ensure proper operation of the product and to
be able to invoke guarantee.
The guarantee terms are stated in the General Conditions for the Sale and Delivery of Products
and/or Performance of Activities by SIMCO (Nederland) B.V.

2. Safety

 The Simco-Ion ionizing air nozzles are only designed to simultaneously clean and neutralize
electrostatically charged surfaces.
 Do not use the ionizing air nozzles in fire and/or explosion hazardous environments.
 Make sure that the equipment is properly earthed. (Not for separate HE nozzle(s))
Earthing is needed to ensure proper operation and to avoid electrical shocks upon contact.
 When carrying out work on the equipment: de-energize the equipment.
 Electrical installation and repairs shall be performed by a skilled electrical engineer.
 If changes, adjustments, etc. have been made without prior consent in writing, or if non-
original parts have been used for repairs, guarantee can no longer be invoked for the
equipment.

3. Use and operation

The Simco-Ion ionizing air nozzles are used to clean and neutralize electrostatically charged
surfaces. The use of compressed air allows awkward places to be neutralized and cleaned as
well.
Connected to a Simco-Ion power unit, the ionizing air nozzles produce an air flow which is rich
in positive and negative ions. When this air flow is pointed to an electrostatically charged area,
electrons are exchanged until the area is neutralized. This makes that the material is neutralized
during the blow-off process and prevents the blown-off particles from being re-attracted. The
current of type HE and HS nozzles is limited, so that the emitter points of the HS nozzles are
safe to touch (type HE to a limited extent only).
