The Silver Pulser Model ZBB2 Manual
WELCOME TO SOTA
Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your Wellness Team.
The Silver Pulser is a consumer product designed to be used as part of a Wellness
Lifestyle. A commitment to healthy lifestyle choices is an important factor in the
journey to Wellness.
The SOTA Silver Pulser has two functions – Micropulsing and making Ionic~Colloidal
Silver. Micropulsing offers gentle microcurrents that work with the body’s natural
electricity for more energy, general health and well-being. Ionic~Colloidal Silver is one
of nature’s gifts and can be made easily and inexpensively at home.
The Silver Pulser is designed to be used independently, but can also be used together
with any of the SOTA Products.
With proper care, your Silver Pulser should provide you many years of trouble-free
use.
Please understand that results will vary.

IONIC~COLLOIDAL SILVER CAUTIONS
We recommend taking occasional breaks from consuming Ionic~Colloidal Silver for
the following reason:
A handful of people have experienced argyria after drinking large amounts of
Ionic~Colloidal Silver daily, over a long period of time. Argyria is a bluish tinge of
the skin. This occurs when excess silver is eliminated through the skin and exposed
to light. Darkening of the moons of the nger nails is usually an early sign.
The risk of argyria is considered greater for those who are ingesting incorrectly made
Ionic~Colloidal Silver and to a lesser degree, those who are decient in selenium or
vitamin E.
When making and drinking Ionic~Colloidal Silver as currently recommended by
SOTA, the risk of argyria is extremely rare.
GENERAL CAUTION
While this technology is generally considered safe, there exists potential for rare
individual reactions that cannot reasonably be foreseen. Therefore, your use of the
SOTA Products constitutes your agreement that you are responsible for your decision
to use the technology and that you hold SOTA harmless for any injuries or damage
believed to arise from using the SOTA Products.
SUMMARY OF LIGHTS
GREEN: Flashes alternately with RED light to indicate Micropulsing function is ready
for use.
RED: Flashes alternately with GREEN light to indicate Micropulsing function is ready
for use.
To save batteries, the GREEN and RED lights will not ash when Micropulsing
cord is plugged into the unit. They will continue to ash, however, when making
Ionic~Colloidal Silver.
WHITE: Indicates impurities in the water or that the wires are touching when making
Ionic~Colloidal Silver.
HOW TO USE THE MICROPULSING FUNCTION
1.Place the 9-Volt Alkaline battery in the unit.
a. On the back of the unit, slide off the battery cover.

© 1996-2021 SOTA Instruments Inc. Page 6 of 12|www.sota.com
The Silver Pulser Model ZBB2 Manual
b. Attach the positive (+) and negative (-)
terminals on the 9-Volt Alkaline battery to
the positive (+) and negative (-) clips in the
battery compartment.
c. Slide the 9-Volt Alkaline battery into the case
and push down. Slide the cover back onto the
unit.
2.Clean the wrist area to remove oils from the
skin. This will allow for better conductivity.
3.Insert the Micropulsing cord into the jack on the
unit.
4.Place the unit in a pocket.
Option: If preferred, the unit can be placed in an arm strap and held in place on the
arm. A short probe cord is best for this option.
5.Prepare one pair of Cotton Sleeves. Each Cotton Sleeve is sewn on three sides; to
nd the open end of the Cotton Sleeve, squeeze the long sides of the sleeve and the
unsewn end will pop open.
6.Insert one probe from the Micropulsing Cord into the open
end of each Cotton Sleeve. Use a gentle twisting motion to
work the probes into the Cotton Sleeves.
7.Wet the Cotton Sleeves with water.
8.Put the Wrist Strap on.
9. Position one of the covered probes over the pulse point on
the thumb side of the wrist, under the Wrist Strap.
10.Place the other covered probe in line with the pulse point
on the little nger side of the wrist. This pulse point is
usually harder to feel. It is located in the soft hollow on the
wrist, in line with the little nger.
11.Turn the unit ON by rotating the ON/OFF knob clockwise. Turn the switch slowly
until you feel the current. If you do not feel the current, see Notes on page 8.
When the Micropulsing Cord is plugged into the unit, the ashing GREEN and
RED lights will not be on. This helps conserve the battery.

12. When nished, turn the unit OFF by rotating the ON/OFF knob counter clockwise
until it clicks. Do not force the ON/OFF knob past its natural stopping point.
13. Clean the wrist and apply a healing lotion to avoid irritation.
Notes:
Suggestions for Feeling the Current: If the current is not felt with wet Cotton
Sleeves, prepare a mild salt solution to wet the sleeves. Add a few grains of salt to
the water in the 50 ml dropper bottle.
Drink enough water to keep the body well hydrated. Hydration can affect the ability
to feel the current.
Care of Micropulsing Cord: Discoloration of probes is normal. Buff occasionally to
remove stains to ensure good electrical contact.
Care of Cotton Sleeves: Wash or rinse sleeves occasionally. Periodically discard and
replace Cotton Sleeves.
Alternatives to Cotton Sleeves:
a. Sponge Sleeves: available from SOTA.
b. Cotton Sleeves with Velcro®used with a Velcro® Wrist Strap: available from SOTA.
c. Unbleached Paper Towel: Cut a small square of paper towel large enough to wrap
around the probe 2 or 3 times.
d.Cotton Flannel: Cut a small square of cotton annel and wrap around the probe.
Secure it in place with thread.
Testing the Micropulsing Function: Unplug the Micropulsing Cord with the unit
on. The GREEN and RED lights the unit should ash alternately. If lights do not
ash, check battery. If lights still do not ash, contact your supplier or your closest
repair depot. See ‘Repairs’ on page 13.
Power Supply: When Micropulsing, as a safety feature, the unit can only be powered
by a 9-Volt battery.
HOW MICROPULSING SHOULD FEEL
1. The sensation is a gentle pulsing. While the microcurrents should be felt, it is not
necessary to turn the control up to an uncomfortable level.
2. With repeated use, the ability to feel the microcurrents may change. It may be
necessary to increase the intensity in order to feel the microcurrents.

© 1996-2021 SOTA Instruments Inc. Page 8 of 12|www.sota.com
The Silver Pulser Model ZBB2 Manual
3. Twitching of the ngers is normal at a higher intensity.
4. During the rst weeks of use, the skin may become irritated. Over time, irritation
usually decreases or disappears. Alternate wrists each session to minimize the
potential for irritation.
SENSITIVE SKIN
Some individuals may be particularly sensitive to microcurrents and the irritation may
continue. To minimize irritation:
1. Use Sponge Sleeves - available from SOTA.
2. Wash wrists thoroughly after each session and apply a healing gel or lotion such
as aloe vera, vitamin E or MSM cream.
3. Micropulse for shorter periods of time until the irritation disappears.
4. Wet the Cotton Sleeves with distilled water or Ionic~Colloidal Silver. If unable to
feel the current, try a commercial saline solution for the eyes. This is gentler than
adding salt to the water.
5. A conductive gel or aloe vera gel added to the wet sleeves may help to reduce
irritation.
TYPICAL USE
Alternate wrists daily.
Length of Session: Build up time gradually. It is best to start slowly. Start with 10 to
20 minutes a day. Increase gradually to a minimum of 2 hours each day.
Length of Use: The SOTA Products User Guide available at
www.sota.com/spug offers suggestions for Focused, Basic and Ongoing Wellness
Plans.
General Guideline: Use daily for a minimum of 8 to 12 weeks. Once completed,
setting a schedule for ongoing use is benecial.
Drink Plenty of Water: It’s important to drink enough water when using the unit.
Drinking ozonated water is especially helpful.
Stop Gradually: Reduce the amount of time each day for the last week of use. If
using more than one SOTA unit, it is suggested to stop only one unit at a time.

HOW TO USE THE IONIC~COLLOIDAL SILVER FUNCTION
HOW TO ASSEMBLE THE SILVER WIRE HOLDER OPTION
1.The Silver Wires t into the two small holes in the Silver
Wire Holder as in the picture.
2.To insert the Silver Wires, move the spring clip away from
the hole.
3.Push the wire through the hole. Most of the wire should be
below the holder. Release the spring clip to hold the Silver
Wire snuggly in place. It may be easier to insert from the
underside of the holder.
4.Repeat Step 2 for the second Silver Wire.
5.Plug the Silver Wire Holder into the Silver
Pulser.
HOW TO MAKE IONIC~COLLOIDAL SILVER
1.Insert Silver Wire Cord or Silver Wire
Holder into the unit.
2.Heat 2 cups (500 ml) of distilled water to the
boiling point—preferably in a non–metal
container. Do not use a glass measuring cup
on the stove top as it may explode.
3. Use a heat-resistant glass container to make
Ionic~Colloidal Silver.
SILVER CORD OPTION
4. Place the Silver Wires in the glass container
immersing at least 70% of the Silver Wires into the water.
Keep them at least 25 mm or 1 inch from the bottom of
the container and 1 inch between the wires. See image 1.

TURNING THE UNIT ON
5.Turn the unit ON by rotating the ON/OFF knob clockwise until it clicks. It is not
necessary to turn up the intensity.
The WHITE light should remain off or be dimly lit. If on, refer to Notes below.
The GREEN and RED lights will continue to ash when making Ionic~Colloidal
Silver.
6.Stir occasionally with a non-metal utensil. Occasionally, wipe off the grey or black
silver oxide that builds up on the Silver Wires.
7.Two cups (16 ounces or 500 ml) for 15 minutes will produce a 3 to 5 ppm batch of
Ionic~Colloidal Silver, depending on the brand of distilled water. The concentration
of silver is measured in parts per million
or ppm.
8.When nished, wipe the Silver Wires with paper towel to remove residue. Buff
lightly when needed to keep them free of sediment. Harsher bufng will wear away
the silver faster.
Notes:
Impurities: If the WHITE light on unit comes on while making Ionic~Colloidal
Silver, it means there are too many impurities in the water. Try a different brand of
distilled water. The WHITE light also comes on if the two wires are touching.
Color: Ionic~Colloidal Silver remains colorless to about 5 or 6 ppm. At a slightly
higher ppm it will be a pale gold color. Do not drink if it is darker than pale gold or if
it is dark grey as this indicates a higher level of impurities or larger particle sizes.
Clarity: The silver electrolyte should be clear. Do not drink if it is cloudy.
Storage: Pour the Ionic~Colloidal Silver into a dark glass bottle—never metal—and
store in a dark, dry place. Over time, light will degrade Ionic~Colloidal Silver by
turning the electrolyte grey or black. Discard if this occurs.
When made and stored properly, Ionic~Colloidal Silver retains freshness for many
weeks. It is suggested, however, that you use as soon as possible. If settling occurs, it
is losing potency. Do not drink any sediment.
Do not freeze, refrigerate, or expose Ionic~Colloidal Silver to extremes of
temperatures as its potency may be affected.
Save on Batteries: When making Ionic~Colloidal Silver the unit can be powered by
an AC-DC wall adaptor. See ‘Optional Power Input’ on page 12.

The Silver Pulser Model ZBB2 Manual
Switch Silver Wire Positions - Silver Wire Holder Option: The silver ions only
come off the wire in the positive (+) or anode terminal into the water. To equalize the
wearing of the Silver Wires, periodically exchange the position of the wires. If left in
the same position, only one Silver Wire will gradually wear away.
Replacing the Silver Wires: The Silver Wires are of the highest grade .9999 or 99.99%
or 4 Nine pure ne silver. When the SOTA pure Silver Wires wear too thin, do not
replace with sterling silver, as it contains nickel, which can be toxic.
TYPICAL USE
Quantity: There is no denite amount to drink. When consumed on a regular basis—
daily or several times a week—it is best to drink no more than 1 to 2 ounces (30 to 60
ml) at a time.
Larger amounts of Ionic~Colloidal Silver—1 cup or more—can be consumed for
short periods of time, for example, a few weeks. It is better to take smaller amounts
throughout the day rather than all at once.
Length of Use: The SOTA Products User Guide available at
www.sota.com/spug offers suggestions for Focused, Basic and Ongoing Wellness
Plans.
General Guideline: 1 to 2 ounces (30 to 60 ml) or more daily for 2 or 3 months.
Ionic~Colloidal Silver can be used as needed. The initial program can be repeated at
any time. If using for an extended period, it is wise to take breaks.
Strength: Laboratory testing indicates Ionic~Colloidal Silver is effective as low as 2
ppm. When ingesting on a regular basis, it is suggested to limit the strength to less
than 10 ppm.
ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS
POWER REQUIREMENTS
