    2. DESCRIPTION Simco-Ion Type HS Ionizing Air Nozzles blow ionized air that simultaneously cleans while neutralizing static charges on parts and materials. Once neutralized, dust and dirt are no longer attracted to surfaces and materials are not attracted to each other. The nozzles are used in conjunction with a Simco-Ion power supply that delivers the high voltage necessary for operation.

    4. INSTALLATION Placement Recommendations Locate nozzles just Prior to where static charges are causing problems. If the material is subject to ongoing friction, additional static control devices may be needed. The target material should have a background of free air as it passes the nozzles, since static charges cannot be neutralized from between two surfaces in intimate contact.

    supply) is pre-attached to the cable. The intermediate (cable-through type) nozzles are supplied loose and must be placed onto the cable by the user. Thread the high voltage cable from the dead-end nozzle, through each nozzle body, all the way back to the power supply. Once threaded onto the cable, each intermediate nozzle may easily be positioned anywhere along it.

Slide the shielding back over the high voltage cable and into the nozzle bushing. Install the power supply bushing and tighten both setscrews. Cut the high voltage cable to desired length.

    5. OPERATION Before energizing any power supply: Ensure that the nozzles are properly grounded. Ensure that the power supply is properly grounded. Ensure that the nozzles have been properly located, positioned and installed. After the above checks have been performed, simply energize the power supply and open the supply of compressed air to the nozzles.

    6. TROUBLESHOOTING • If the Static Bar Checker fails to glow at any of the points, either the cable or the power supply is defective. To identify the fault, perform the following steps: Turn off power to the Power Supply. Disconnect all static control equipment from the Power Supply. Connect one end of an insulated test wire to the power supply’s ground stud. Energize the power supply.

    7. MAINTENANCE NOTE – Only qualified service personnel are to perform maintenance tasks. CAUTION – Electrical Shock Hazard – Turn off all power supplies before performing any maintenance tasks. Ionizing Emitter Points Dust or dirt around the ionization points will reduce the effectiveness of the nozzle. If metal filings or fragments fall into/onto a nozzle, it is apt to short-circuit and render it inoperative until the particles are removed.
  • Page 12: To Disassemble

    To Disassemble Turn the power supply OFF. Disconnect the airline and the ground wire from the nozzle. Simply remove the nozzle from the high voltage cable by sliding it toward the power supply and off (first, remove the spring-loaded connector if used). NOTE –...
