Phoenix Ionizing Blower

5200632 Rev. E

5. OPERATION

Before energizing this equipment:
1.  Ensure that the unit is properly grounded.
2.  Ensure that all static control devices have been properly located, positioned and 

installed.

After the above checks have been performed, simply turn the fan speed control knob 

from the OFF position to the desired airflow setting.  Use the highest airspeed that the 

application allows.  With the fan speed set to maximum, the Phoenix will neutralize static 

charges at a distance of ten feet.  As the fan speed is decreased, neutralization range will 

also decrease.

NOTE

 – Do not allow dust, dirt or debris to block or obstruct the airflow inlets 

or outlets.

CAUTION – Electrical Shock Hazard

Always disconnect power supply before cleaning static neutralizing equipment. 

Avoid touching static neutralizing points when power supply is energized.
