Sentinel BTI
Benchtop Ionizing Blower

Overview

The Sentinel BTI Benchtop Ionizer utilizes DC high voltage to
generate balanced ionized airflow to eliminate static charges
on surfaces. The unit can be placed at one end of the
workbench, wall or shelf mounted, and directed at the target or
area to be neutralized. The ionizer's neutralization time will be
optimal at 12" to 48" directly in front of the unit and will increase
as the distance from the unit increases.

General Guidelines

• Keep water, oil, contamination and any fluids away from
the blower at all times
• Keep the unit clean inside and out for optimal
performance
Caution! Disconnect the unit from power before
performing any maintenance, inspection or cleaning to
avoid an electrical shock hazard and to prevent damage
to the unit!

Contents

instructions sheet

Installation

Locate the ionizer 1 to 4 feet from the area or target to be
neutralized for optimal performance, making sure that the
airflow will not be restricted. The unit comes with a stand so
that it can be positioned on the work surface, aimed at the
target and locked in via adjustment knobs. It can also be wall
or shelf mounted to keep valuable bench space free for other
purposes and equipment. A working electrical outlet within
reach of the 6' long detachable cord that is supplied with the
blower will be required. The outlet must be a properly installed
and grounded 3-prong outlet with supplied voltage to match the
blower being installed. If one is not present, consider relocating
the blower to be within reach of an outlet or having an electrical
outlet installed near the blower. Be sure the ON/OFF switch,
located on the front of the unit, is in the "OFF" position. Plug
the power cord into the back of the blower and then into the
appropriate AC power source.
Important Note: Before powering up the unit, verify that the
AC outlet is properly grounded and that the supplied line
voltage matches the electrical spec on the label at the bottom
of the Sentinel BTI blower. Plugging the blower into an outlet
with the incorrect voltage may damage the unit and will void
any warranty coverage. The unit must have a good ground to
maintain proper balance.
