Precautions For Proper Use - Panasonic ER-VW Manual

PRECAUTIONS FOR PROPER USE

• This product is to remove static electricity
for industrial use. Never use this product for
medical equipment etc. relating to maintenance /
supervision of human life or body, for prevention
of accidents which damage a human life or
properties, or for safety maintenance.
• Do not use this product near or around surroundings
containing any dangerous materials, such as
combustible material and flammable material.
• The discharge needle gathers dust after
a long period of use. In order to prevent
accident or product malfunction, clean up the
discharge needle, periodically once every
one week or so, or this product will be unable
to exert the charge removal performance.
• Be sure to ground the main body of this
product via ground terminal to ensure electric
shock prevention and reliable charge removal.
• Since the discharge needle is live with high
voltage, never touch the discharge needle,
or an electric shock may result.
• If this product is used in an airtight room, ozone
emitted from this product may be detrimental.
Therefore, in order for this product to be used in an
airtight room, be sure to keep the room ventilated.
• Since the ion air contains ozone, do not aim
this product at anyone.
• Always be sure to turn off the air supply before
loosening the nozzles to carry out air flow
adjustment or for maintenance. Air pressure
may cause the discharge needle to fly out.
Furthermore, push the nozzle securely in by
hand until it touches into the enclosure of the
device afterwards, and check that the nozzle
does not move. If the nozzle is not installed
correctly, it will adversely affect charge removal
performance and the nozzle may also fall out.
• Since the tip of the discharge needle is
pointed, take sufficient care in handling the
discharge needle, or injuries may result.
Mounting
• When installing the unit to
its mount, use M4 pan head
screws (please arrange
separately), and tighten them
at a torque of 0.5 N·m or less.
• Be sure to connect the F.G.
terminal to ground. If the unit is
not properly grounded, charge
removal performance will be severely reduced. (Use a
type D ground or a common power supply ground.)
• If grounding to a common power supply ground, you can
use the lead wire for connecting the F.G. that is supplied
with the unit to make the connection.
0 V ground: Connect pins 2 and 3 of the end connector
(9-pin) to the lead wire for connecting the F.G..
+V ground: Connect pins 1 and 3 of the end connector
(9-pin) to the lead wire for connecting the F.G..
If the ground is not connected correctly, operating
problems or accidents may occur, so be sure to
check the usage conditions and connect the ground
in such a way that the power supply does not
become shorted.

Thin Type Ionizer
Adjusting the air blowing direction
• After screw down the nozzle to loosen it, point it toward
the object to be charge removal. After adjusting the
position, securely tighten the nozzle by hand until it is
touching the enclosure, and check that the nozzle does
not move. If the nozzle is not installed correctly, it will
adversely affect charge removal performance and the
nozzle may also fall out.
• The diagram at right shows the range of
adjustment for the nozzles.
Piping
• The tube that is installed to the air intake of this device
should have an outside diameter of 6 mm
inside diameter of 4 mm 0.157
• The air that is supplied to this product should be dried
clean air that has been processed through an air dryer
(dew point around –20 °C
(mesh size around 0.01µm
• Increasing the length of the air hose from the air supply
equipment or adding pneumatic equipment (such as
a needle valve, governor or miniature filter) will cause
drops in the pressure of the air supplied to the device,
and so do not allow the air pressure to drop below
sufficient levels. (Check the pressure applied to the
device at the air intake of the device.)
Furthermore, select air pressure equipment that is
appropriate for the level of supplied air flow.
Connections
• Use the ER-VWAR80 joint kit (optional) to connect
the devices together. (1 kit is needed for each pair of
devices.) Up to a maximum of 5 units can be connected
together (including this unit).
When using units that are connected together in this way,
attach the supplied end connector to the connector of the
last device in the series. Furthermore, also connect the
end connector to a device if not connecting the device to
any other devices.
• The air joint (included in the joint kit) should be tightened
at a torque of 0.5 N·m or less.
• When connecting devices together, check that the air
pressure values at the air intakes of each device are
appropriate for the usage conditions.
