Treatment setup
Place the main unit by placing the antenna as close as possible to the surface of the wood you want to
treat. Depending on the accessory you have installed, the treatment surface area will be different. The
antenna that comes standard has a maximum treatment area of 30x20cm. Keep in mind that the heat
generated in the wood will always be greater in the central area of that surface.
On the other hand, the greater the distance at which the object to be treated is, the radiation waves
will tend to scatter and the heating effect will be slower.
To perform a treatment, you must do several successive sessions making a sweep that runs over the
entire surface to be treated. To prevent cold areas in the perimeter of each treated area, it is advisable
to leave a small overlap of 5cm between applications.
Avoid the presence of people and animals in an area of 12 meters around the equipment when
performing a treatment. If the treatment is to be carried out on a wall, floor or ceiling next to
neighbours, it is advisable to make sure in advance with the leak detector that there is no danger of
exposure to radiation and, if there is, the neighbour evacuates the adjacent area during the treatment.
Treatment
Once the checks described in the previous section have been made and the main unit has been placed
in its initial position, we are ready to start the treatment.
1.
Turn on the main unit by placing the switch located on the main equipment in the "I" position.
The internal fan will start working. This action does not initiate any treatment and therefore
there is no radiation at this time.
2.
Take the remote control in hand and move away respecting the safety distance and always
towards the back of the main unit. Remember to always carry the leak detector with you.
3.
Select the desired treatment duration and power level on your touchscreen.
4.
Check that the emergency stop button of the remote control is not pressed, otherwise the
equipment will never start working.
5.
Press the green button on your touchscreen to start treatment. You will hear the warning horn
indicating radiation throughout the treatment time.
6.
Once the timer countdown is over, the treatment is complete and it will be safe to approach
the main unit.
7.
Move the main unit to the next position and repeat the process from point 3.
User interface
The remote control of your equipment allows you to control remotely and easily all the operations
during the treatment: power level, treatment duration, start, stop, progress and remaining time of the
treatment.
