Placement
Place the Sentry approximately 1 to 3 feet from the critical work area or objects
to be neutralized.
Position the ionized air stream to cover as much of the critical area as possible
1. Loosen lock knobs on sides of Sentry
2. Adjust the unit on its stand
3. Tighten the lock knobs to secure.
5. OPERATION
1. Activate the Sentry by setting the power switch to the on ( __ ) position.
2. Set the air flow as desired by adjusting the fan speed
a.
low ( __ )
b.
medium ( ___ ___ )
c.
high ( ___ ___ ___ )
The Sentry produces an ionized air stream that covers a large area uniformly.
The time required to neutralize a static charge on an item in this area depends
on many factors. Two important factors are: distance to the ionizer and air
velocity. Air ions constantly “neutralize” each other. Positive and negative
ions are electrostatically attracted to each other. When they contact, the charge
transfers and the ions recombine. With high air velocity, the ions travel further
before they recombine. Setting the fan speed to high, results in coverage for the
greatest possible area. For fast neutralizing, the item should be within 2 to 3 feet
of the unit. For virtually instantaneous neutralizing, the item may be as close as
6 inches.
