This sanitization device, by exploiting the physical process of ionisation, promotes the controlled
formation of particular ionic species (electrically charged species) in the air, through an
electrostatic field that simulates the natural process that normally occurs through solar radiation,
mechanically or by means of other physical phenomena.
The particular ionic species produced have proved to be particularly effective as sanitizing agents
in the air and on surfaces, moreover are historically and scientifically proven to be beneficial in
people, especially those with a negative electrical charge (arising from individual or small groups
of molecules that receive an electron).

The most significant features of JONIX VMC are:
• High efficiency: reduction of bioburden and of volatile organic compounds up to 99%
compared to the initial concentration;
• Low power consumption: from 20 to 40 VA;
• Strong deodorizing action: it eliminates odours from the air flowing through;
• Natural process: it does not use nor produces residual chemical substances.
New generation ionising units are used in the JONIX VMC module, characterised by high
efficiency and selectivity, which do not produce any significant increases in undesirable by-
products such as ozone or nitrous compounds, in irritating or even toxic amounts.
The function of JONIX VMC sanitising systems, designed for installation inside different
types of aeration systems, is to reduce the bacterial load and to sanitise air introduced into the
environments, improving Indoor Air Quality.
They can be used to sanitise machines and aeration ducts or to reduce odours in environments
such as kitchens, fish and meat processing facilities, etc.
JONIX VMC modules are composed of control electronics, inside an insulated enclosure, and of
actuators: the ionising units exposed to the air flow.
The electronics on the device are capable of sending alarms to the central control system, in real
time, in case of failures to the ionising system.

switched on.
6.7 USING THE DEVICE
We recommend you to link the contact of input signal and serial interface RS485.
JONIX VMC devices are made up of electronic control, enclosed in an insulating shell, and of
actuators:the ionising unity are exposed to airflow. The electronics in the device is prepared to
the sent at the central system, in real-time, of an eventual alarm signal in case of failure of the
ionisation system. For this reason, it is easy to implement a software interface that can throw on
video, from this signal, a request message of maintenance.
The exchange of informations in entrance and in exit is full managed by 2 sockets, one of 6 poles
for input and control signals (RS 485) and one of 4 ploes for output signals (anomalies signals).

2. RL2 Broken alarm.
It is enabled if the control voltage in HV generators gets out from a defined range. Once done
the requested operations the relay can be reset through a commmand on serial line or through
IN1 entrance. In this last case you have to appluy a short-circuit of 5 seconds.
Two leds, one red and one blue, in the electronic card inside the module provide indications of the
type of the active alarm.
The alarms are split up into type and marked through 2 clean contact usually opened:
1. RL1 Maintenance alarm periodic/replacement.
It is enabled after 1000 hours of functioning to indicate the necessity of a periodic cleaning
of plasma generators (flashing way 5 sec on, 2 sec off) or after 14000 hours to ask the
sostitution of generators themselves (fixed way)..Once done the requested operations the
relay can be reset through command on serial line or through IN1 entrance. In this last one
case you have to apply a short-circuit of 2 seconds.

7.1 WARNINGS
7 - MAINTENANCE
BEFORE CARRYING OUT ANY MAINTENANCE OPERATION MAKE SURE THAT THE
DEVICE IS NOT AND CANNOT ACCIDENTALLY BE POWERED ELECTRICALLY.
YOU MUST THEREFORE UNPLUG THE DEVICE BEFORE CARRYING OUT ANY
MAINTENANCE.
• It is the duty of the user to perform all the maintenance operations on the device listed below.
• If you experience a malfunction, unplug the device from the mains and contact qualified staff
(retailer, the Manufacturer).
• Only trained and qualified personnel can perform maintenance operations.
Use work gloves to protect your hands when performing maintenance.
The frequency of the operations to be performed to ensure proper maintenance of the device
JONIX VMC depends mainly on the quality of the treated air.
Air can be especially harmful for condensers when it contains polluting or aggressive substances
such as:
- Industrial flue gas
- Sale
- Chemical smoke
- Heavy powders
By coming into contact with the inside or outer surfaces of the device by means of
the air flow or by direct exposure, these substances can lead to a structural and
functional failure of the device and of its performance as time passes and without
proper, systematic maintenance.
The JONIX VMC device requires a small amount of maintenance consisting in regularly cleaning
the glass and outside mesh of the condenser.
The device signals the need for maintenance of the generators, by means of a special alarm
contact, every 1000 hours of operation.
