2.  With the Counter SPI and the Charged Plate 

Analyzer on, adjust the balance trimpot, located 

on the lower left side of the ionizer.  Balance the 

ionizer to 0 volts on the Charged Plate Anaylzer. 

 

NOTE: 

There are 3 LEDs located on the front 

panel. The one on the left is the on light, the other 

two LEDs are the indicators of the positive and 

negative.  Note the rate in which the lights switch.  

Your unit should be set at a slow rate.  Also note 

when balancing, the indicator lights, as you offset 

the positive and the negative (balance), the on and 

off times changes on the lights. 

3.  Charge the Charged Plate Analyzer to 1KV of 

either polarity (±) and push the decay button.  The 

timer will automatically time the decay rate.  The 

typical decay is 1,000 to 100 volts in under 60 

seconds of  both polarities.

There are two adjustments that can be made on the 

Counter Workstation Ionizer: the BALANCE and the 

RATE.  The BALANCE of positive and negative ion 

output can be adjusted to increase polarity bias by 

inserting a small screwdriver through the BALANCE 

port and slowly turning the trimpot clockwise to 

increase positive and decrease negative ON time 

pulses.  Turn the trimpot counter-clockwise to increase 

negative output and decrease positive ON time pulses. 

The RATE or pulse frequency can be adjusted down 

to one pulse per second or up to 5 pulses per second 

by inserting a small screwdriver through the RATE port 

and slowly turning the trimpot clockwise to increase 

the frequency and counter-clockwise to decrease the 

frequency.

Field repairs are not normally encouraged during 

the warranty period.  Repair attempts by unqualified 

personnel may invalidate the warranty.

IMPORTANT

The Counter Workstation Ionizer has been designed 

to minimize effects of localized charges.  If your 

processing involves generation of considerable static 

charges you may need more aggressive equipment.  

ESD Systems offers a complete line of Ionizing 

Blowers, Air Guns, Bars and Overhead Room systems 

to meet all ionizing requirements.
