16.6 Applications

The ionizer is designed solely for use in connection with electronic balances!

• Discharging solid objects or balance pans.

For improved ionization results, switch the blower on. This will make the

sample discharge time shorter.

• Discharging powder samples. Discharging prevents whirls, a problem for toxic

samples.

If the samples easily whirl, switch the blower off.

• Discharging weighed material, glass windproof protection or balance pans.

Place the ionizer near the balance.

• Discharging beakers etc.

When you shake the beaker with the powder sample, the powder will deposit

on the inner beaker wall. This will be prevented by discharging the beaker.

Do not use any aggressive cleaning agents (solvents etc.) for cleaning. Use solely a

cloth with a mild soapy water. The liquid must not penetrate inside the device, use a

soft cloth to wipe the device dry after cleaning.

Keep the ion sources clean.

WARNING

Disconnect the device from the power

supply before you start cleaning.

Do not dismantle the ionizer.
