Other uses are not permitted. The discharging bars must be operated only together with the dedicated Eltex PI, ES6x, ES51 or ES24 power supplies. These power supplies guarantee the optimum adaptation to the required operational data for the different active bar lengths.
2.3 Work and operational safety Warning! Carefully observe the following notes and the complete chapter 2 "Safety”, page • Before carrying out repairs, cleaning or maintenance work and before resetting the unit after malfunctions, switch off the power supply and disconnect the mains supply voltage (see chapter 5 "Maintenance”, page...
2.4 Contact protection As the site of installation and/or use of the units is outside the control of Eltex, contact protection against inadvertent contact by personnel as spe- cified by the employers’ liability insurance association (e.g. DGUV V3 in Germany) may have to be provided.
The manufacturer reserves the right to make changes to the technical specifications without prior notice in order to adapt the units to state-of- the-art engineering. Eltex will provide the latest information on any changes or modifications in the operating instructions on request.
3. Installation and assembly 3.1 Assembling the discharging bar The mounting profile of the Series R47 discharging bars is grooved. The sliding nuts pushed into these grooves allow the bar to be bolted and mounted. Fig. 2 shows the bar with the required installation distances. Max.

Locating the discharging bar The best possible discharging results are achieved if the bar is located in areas with minimum web capacities. In practical terms this means placing the bar with maximum distances from the machine environment, i.e. no discharging against the idler roller. A rough guideline: A space with the radius R of the bar distance to the web ought to be kept free of any conductive material (Fig.
3.2 Maximum active bar length and length of the high voltage cable Both the lengths of the high voltage cable and of the active bars are limited. The shielded high voltage cables cause a capacitive load on the transformer inside the power supply. The maximum loading capacity is a result of the function of the total active bar length and the total length of all high voltage cables.
3.3 Connecting the high voltage cable to the power supply Warning! Connect or disconnect the high voltage cable only with the power supply switched off. For the connection to the power supplies, refer to the separate operating instructions for the appropriate power supply. BA-en-2074-2501_R47...
4.2 Function control Use the Eltex Volt Stick or a glow-lamp voltage tester to check the proper function of the emission points. Quote Article No. 109136 when ordering the Volt Stick from Eltex.
5. Maintenance Warning! • Switch off the power supply unit and disconnect the supply voltage before carrying out any maintenance or repair work. • The machine which has the units fitted must not be in operation. • The bars passively absorb energy from the moving substrate web. The high voltage cable must be plugged in or grounded to the power supply.
6. Troubleshooting • Warning! Electric shock hazard! • Switch off the power supply unit and disconnect the supply voltage before carrying out any maintenance or repair work. • The machine which has the units fitted must not be in operation. •...
