Usage
An In-Line Ionizer will connect to a gun handle to control air activation and direct the flow
where it is needed. The gun system will neutralize static charges and remove dust and other
foreign particulate by providing a powerful stream of ionized air across affected parts. All
accessories including gun handles are purchased and can be replaced as needed.
A. Screw the nozzle tip into the P-2021 Ion Cell and tighten.
B. Hand tighten the Ion Cell onto the gun handle so that the “O”-ring provides sealing. If
the ionizer becomes loosened, apply a small amount of adhesive to the threads-Loctite
242. (Note: Model P-2021 cell does not require an “O”-ring when used with the PK1
and VT1 Cleanroom Gun.)
C. Provide a 1/4” NPT male fitting to the end of an airline to be connected to the gun.
Note: Ensure that the air supply is appropriately filtered and that attached hoses are clean and
dry. Inquire about filter options.
D. Attach the gun to the 1/4” NPT hose fitting by screwing the base of the handle securely
into the fitting. Use teflon tape as needed.
E. Set pressure to 40 psig first to determine if this supplies sufficient air volume and
pressure to remove static and debris from surface. You can adjust the pressure
depending on your application. MAXIMUM PRESSURE 100 PSIG Note: Model PK1
and VT1 cleanroom handle max. 80 psig. (50 psig with filter option)
F. Always use an OSHA approved safety tip to prevent air pressure injury in the case the
end is dead ended against a person’s skin. All tips provided by NRD meet OSHA
requirements. The Ion Air Gun is now ready to remove static charges.
G. Point the gun up to three feet away from the object and squeeze the trigger. A powerful
stream of ionized air will flow over the objects and quickly neutralize electrostatic
charges and remove dust and other foreign particulate clinging due to static attraction.
