Chapter 6: Maintaining the Nano Enclosure

Maintenance on the Optional Ionizer 

Occasional cleaning of the ionizer’s emitter points is the only routine maintenance 
required.  Regularly scheduled cleaning extends the life of the unit and sustains the 
delivery of ionized air.  Clean the emitter points every 60 to 90 days (based on 8-hr 
daily operation).   
 

Emitter Point Cleaning 

NOTE:  Disconnect power to the XPert Nano Enclosure at least 
one minute before performing cleaning or replacement of the 
Ionizer Emitter Points.  The ionizer has a high voltage power 
supply that must discharge over that one minute time period. 

 
Emitter points are better cleaned without removal. Use a clean room compatible 
(non-shedding) swab moistened with the following solution to gently wipe the 
points. 
 

Cleaning solution of 50% IPA (laboratory or electronic grade 
isopropyl alcohol and 50% de-ionized water). 

 

Emitter Point Replacement 

If the ionizer fails to neutralize charges in the airstream, the only portions of the 
ionizer that can be serviced are the emitter points.  Do not attempt to disassemble 
the ionizer bar located under the work surface. A surface static charge meter is 
required to test the ionizer’s effectiveness.  Apply a static charge to a piece of 
plastic with a synthetic fabric and measure the voltage at the surface before and 
after placing it in the airstream with the ionizer ON. 
 

Ionizer Emitter Points   Part Number 3884300 

Emitter points may require replacement in two to three years or when erosion or 
damage is evident.  To replace the points: 

1.

 

Remove power to the unit for at least one minute 

2.

 

Grasp each emitter point with a small needle nose pliers and pull them 
out of their socket 

3.

 

Install the replacement point with care.  Using the needle nose pliers 
and gripping the emitter away from the sharp point.   

4.

 

Follow the Emitter Point Cleaning instructions above before use.
