2. Hold the gun approximately six inches from the surface
you want to neutralize and blow-off. Aim the nozzle
and hold down the trigger. The LED on the back of the
gun should illuminate. Typically, static charges are
discharged within one second.
3. Release the trigger when the surface is clean.
If the optional foot switch is installed, you may use either
the foot switch or gun trigger.

Maintenance
“All ionization devices will require periodic maintenance for
proper operation. Maintenance intervals for ionizers vary
widely depending on the type of ionization equipment and
use environment. Critical clean room uses will generally
require more frequent attention. It is important to set-up
a routine schedule for ionizer service. Routine service
is typically required to meet quality audit requirements.”
(ESD Handbook TR 20.20 section 5.3.6.7 Maintenance /
Cleaning)
CLEANING THE COMPONENTS
1. Turn off the console and disconnect it from its
electrical power and gas supply sources.
2. Using a cloth moistened with the IPA solution, wipe
the exterior surfaces of the console and gun to
remove any dirt or dust that may have collected.
3. Using a swab moistened with the IPA solution,
gently clean the emitter points on the gun.
Extremely dirty points increase the time needed to
discharge static and can affect the ionization
balance.
REPLACING THE DISPOSABLE FILTER
EMIT recommends that the disposable filter be changed
every 3 months or when it begins to look dirty.
1. Turn power off at the console and disconnect the
console from the gas supply.
2. Hold down the disposable filter release button on
the side of the console.
3. Remove the hose and disposable filter from the
console by pulling the textured rubber plug where
the hose emerges from the console. Rocking the
plug back and forth can help loosen the filter. Do
not pull the hose itself.
4. Remove the disposable filter from the hose fitting by
depressing the metal release tab on the fitting and
pulling off the air filter.
5. Replace with the new disposable filter by following
the procedure in the ASSEMBLY section on page
2.
