fan speed, remaining time of session and indication of problems during
session. The back-light illuminates the display in darkness.
There is a touch-sensitive surface on the display. It allows easy interactive
device operation. The unit has a notification buzzer. The buzzer makes a
sound when some of the commands on display are touched.
This device operates in the unlicensed ISM band at 2.4GHz,
using BLUETOOTH communication. In case this product is used
nearby other wireless devices, including microwave and
wireless LAN, operating in the same frequency band, there is a
possibility that interference occurs between this product and
such other devices. If interference occurs, please stop the operation of other
devices.
About the device

Principles of operation
1) The dispenser works in programmed time intervals and drops small amounts
of salt from the salt tank down to grinder.
2) Grinder breaks salt grains to salt dust particles of various size, from few
microns to parts of millimeter.
3) Air flow pulls small and light salt particles from the grinder and blows them
out.
4) Output airflow containing salt particles hits the deflector plate. Coarse and
heavy salt particles are not able to follow sudden change of airlow, they hit
the deflector plate and drop down. Fine and light particles can follow the
airflow, pass the deflector plate and get inside the salt room.
5) It is assumed that the device is mounted outside the salt room, with user
being inside and operator in the vicinity of the device.

INSTALlATION INSTRUCTIONS
Choose appropriate position for halogenerator on wall between clean room
and salt room. Center of the outlet hole should be about 1m above floor level.
Drill a 110 mm diameter hole for outlet in the wall, between clean room and
salt room.
Put halogenerator against drilled 110 mm hole. Mark 4 holes for anchors
(holes are at rear side of halogenerator case) and remove halogenerator from
the wall.
Drill four 8mm diameter holes for nylon anchors, and insert the anchors into
the holes.
Mount the halogenerator on the wall selecting four 5.5x60mm-DIN7997 metal
screws.
Note: For detailed montage instructions, refer to accompanying documents.
Insert power cable to power plug.
WARNING: Do not use a power cord other
than the supplied one.

Note: Power plug is on the bottom side of the halogenerator.
Note: Mains plug is considered as disconnecting device. Mains power outlet
used for connection of the halogenerator to the mains should be easily
reachable to the operator.
If you use an external circuitry for ventilation and light control, insert jack in
plug for control of external circuitry (central jack conductor always carry
+24VDC, shield is connected to 0V when session is in progress, and
disconnected when session is not in progress. Plug can carry current for one
control relay operating on 24VDC (max 100mA).
Note: Plug for control of external circuitry is on the bottom side of the
halogenerator.
Connect power cord to grounded mains power inlet. Do not use grounding
adaptor.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of
electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding
conductor and a grounding plug.
The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER - Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a
risk of electric shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is
green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment-grounding conductor. If repair
or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-
grounding conductor to a live terminal. Check with a qualified electrician or
serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt
as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided
with the appliance - if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120 V circuit, and has a grounding plug. A
temporary adaptor, may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle if a
properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adaptor should be used only
until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green
colored rigid ear, lug, and the like, extending from the adaptor must be connected to
a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the
adaptor is used, it must be held in place by the metal screw.

Instruction for positioning of the halogenerator in salt room
For proper operation of the halogenerator and salt room essential influence has:
Position of the halogenerator.
Supply of fresh air to the halogenerator.
Position of exhaust ventilation orifice.
Air exhaust from salt room.
Humidity of air.
Basically, halogenerator should create salt dust and mix it with air. Salt dust is
generated inside grinder of halogenerator. Air flow for mixing of salt with air creates
fan inside halogenerator. Flow of air created by fan strongly depends on difference of
air pressure before halogenerator and air pressure inside salt room. Decrease of size
of ventilation orifices, and cross section of ventilation ducts and increase of length of
ventilation ducts will result in increase of air pressure difference and decrease of air
flow. If air flow is not sufficient, salt dust will not go to salt room and will deposit
inside the halogenerator.

Installation examples
If ventilation system is perfect, and air pressure after halogenerator is 0.0 mm
H2O (0.0 inch H2O), fan can produce maximum air flow of 2.3 m3/min (80
CFM/min).
If air pressure inside salt room is 4.0 mm H2O (0.16 inch H2O) higher than air
pressure before halogenerator, fan can produce produce air flow of 1.0 m3/min
(35 CFM/min).
If air pressure inside salt room is more than 8.7 mm H2O (0.35 inch H2O) above
air pressure before halogenerator, fan will not produce air flow at all. Fan
blades will rotate, but there will be no air flow.

Therefore, it is essential to have good supply of fresh air before halogenerator and
good air exhaust system from the salt room.
If air supply is not good enough (meaning high air pressure drop after halogenerator),
fan inside halogenerator will need help of additional fan/fans located in external air
installation. It can be fan that increase supply of fresh air before halogenerator or fan
that increase exhaust of air from salt room or both. Goal is to have air flow up to 3
m3/min (110 CFM/min).
It is prohibited that external fan supply air in salt room circumventing
halogenerator! In this case fan inside halogenerator must fight pressure drop created
by air ducts plus pressure drop created by "aiding" fan. Effective air flow through
halogenerator will be small and there will be no transport of salt dust from
halogenerator to salt room. In extreme situations, if external fan is stronger than fan
inside halogenerator, air flow through halogenerator can be reversed!

To have good distribution of salt dust inside salt room, halogenerator and exhaust
orifice must be separated as much as possible. If they are close to each other, salt
dust will mainly go to exhaust orifice, instead to spread across salt room.
Picture bellow is example of good configuration of halogenerator and exhaust orifice.
