2Safety
The ionizing units of these series are operationally safe, provided that they are operated in
accordance with their intended use.
In case of misuse, dangers may result:
-for life and limb of the operator,
-for the unit and other assets.
Also note Chapter 3.1 (Important installation notes).
For operators with heart pacemakers special instructions should be
requested from the manufacturer!
During operation of the units, small quantities of ozone will form.
In order to ensure adherence to maximum permitted ozone concentrations at the workplace,
make sure that the workplace is ventilated sufficiently during operation of the units.
The operator of the units must take care to ensure sufficient ventilation
during operation!
2.1 Intended use
Ionizing units generate positive and negative ions. Their purpose is the elimination of electrostatic
charges (e.g. in paper, films and foils, textiles, glass, plastics etc.).
HAUG power packs only must be used for supplying the high voltage to the units.
Do not install or use the units in areas
subject to explosion hazards.
For reasons of safety, unauthorized conversions and modifications of the unit are not permitted.
The installation and operating conditions indicated in these Operating Instructions must be
adhered to.
2.2 Danger sources
Defective high-voltage plugs and cables may lead to danger of electric shocks. Shut down the
unit immediately in case of visible damage and suspected electrical defects.
Danger!
High voltage!
Danger of fatal accidents!
Switch off the power pack before connecting
or disconnecting the coaxial connectors!

2.3 Operator qualifications
The unit may be installed and put into operation by trained electricians only or by authorized and
persons informed about the potential dangers. The above mentioned persons must have read the
operating instructions and must follow the instructions, notes and safety advice.
3Installation
The unit may be installed by trained electricians only and by authorized persons informed about
the potential dangers. The above mentioned persons must have read the operating instructions
and must follow the instructions, notes and safety advice.
3.1 Important installation instructions
The operation of the unit is not affected by the position in which it is installed.
Do not connect the units to the power
pack until installation is completed.
Switch off the power pack before connecting
or disconnecting the coaxial connectors!
3.2 Ionizing units
The numerals refer to the illustration at the end of these instructions.
-Example for ionizers.
Most favourable distance ionizing unit -material
approx. 20 -30 mm, min. 10 mm, max. 80 mm.
Distance B to grounded machine part always greater than distance A.
Install ionizer so that no machine parts are located behind the material.
Never attach metal holders above the ionizing needles.
Install high-voltage cables without kinks. Smallest bending radius 50 mm.
-Examples of holders.

4Application
The unit may be put into operation by trained electricians only or by persons instructed in the
potential dangers. The above mentioned persons must have read the operating instructions and
must follow the instructions, notes and safety advice.
The operator of the units must take care to ensure sufficient ventilation
during operation!
Conditions:
The power pack and the ionizing unit must be connected correctly.
Ionizing units, in combination with HAUG power packs, are intended for the removal of
electrostatic charges (e.g. from paper, films and foils, textiles, glass, plastics etc.).

5Remedy of defects
Any remedy of defects must be carried out by trained electricians only. The above mentioned
persons must have read the operating instructions and must follow the instructions, notes and
safety advice.
In case of defects regarding the power pack and the ionizing unit, please check for correct
installation first. If this does not solve the problem, please return the power pack together with the
ionizing unit for examination.
Danger!
High voltage!
Danger of fatal accidents!
Switch off the power pack before connecting
or disconnecting the coaxial connectors!
6Maintenance and repairs
Danger!
High voltage!
Danger of fatal accidents!
