17 Ionizing unit (factory option for KERN ALJ-A03)

(for model TALJG 210-5-A ioniser as standard)

17.1 General information

The ionizing unit has blades supplied with high voltage. In their immediate vicinity,
there are ions generated with a positive and negative charge as a result of corona
discharge. The ions are attracted by the weighed material with static charge,
neutralizing the interfering static charge. This eliminates also forces falsifying
weighing (e.g. the false weighing result, drifting weighing value).

17.2 Basic safety instructions

The ionizing unit should be used solely with electronic scales. Do not use
it for any other purposes.
Never use the ionizing unit in explosive atmospheres. The standard
version is not explosion-proof.
Protect the ionizing unit from high humidity of air / temperature, vapors
and dust.
Ensure location free from water/oil.
Do not expose the ionizing unit to long-term heavy moisture. Any
forbidden condensation of the air moisture on the ionizing unit may occur
when a cold device is placed in a much hotter environment. In such
circumstances, leave the ionizing unit not connected to the mains for 2
hours to adapt to the ambient temperature.
When the ionizing unit is on, do not touch the ion source, see the label to
the left.
If smoke, burned smell, heavy heating of the ionizing unit occur, or the
red LED is lit, switch the ionizing unit off immediately using the main
switch and disconnect it from the mains.
If it is discovered water or solid bodies enter the ionizing unit, switch it off
immediately using the main switch and disconnect it from the mains.
As the high-voltage technology is used, handle the ion source and
outputs carefully.
Do not dismount or modify the ionizing unit.
