Figure 1. Counter SPI Item 94000
Introduction
The COUNTER SPI is designed to effectively eliminate
localized static charges which exist in the work area.
The Counter SPI is available in two models: Item
94000 is 120 Volt, and item 94001 is 220 Volt. Also
available is item 94002, replacement emitters for the
unit.
HOW TO USE THE COUNTER SPI:
Your COUNTER SPI comes completely balanced and
ready to use.
1. Place your table top unit on a flat, level surface.
2. Plug the COUNTER SPI/WESTEK into any 120V AC
(220V optional) electrical outlet.
3. Turn on/off switch to ON position.
FOR BEST RESULTS:
1. Keep effective area clear and free from obstructions
of ion flow.
2. Position unit so that emitter points are directed
towards area to be ionized.
REMEMBER:
1. Keep work area clear of all static generative
materials.
2. Use only approved static control grounding methods
and material handling equipment.
3. By properly using ionized air, all static potentials in
the work area are greatly reduced, even when
humidity levels decrease.
CAUTION:
Care should be exercised during handling
to prevent the unit from falling face down. The delicate
emitter pins will be damaged or broken if this happens.
CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS:
Your Ionizer was designed to be virtually maintenance
free. The emitter points can be cleaned when there is
a visible accumulation of dirt. Generally this would be
twice a year, depending on the cleanliness level of the
working environment.
1. Check the emitter points for dirt accumulation.
2. Be sure the unit is unplugged.
3. Wipe emitter point with a swab dampened in
isopropyl alcohol.
4. The outside case may be wiped down with a soft
damp cloth.
CALIBRATION AND BALANCE VERIFICATION:
The COUNTER SPI is factory set to achieve a
maximum balanced ion output in standard, non-air
assisted applications. To certify calibration, we
recommend EOS/ESD association standard
"EOS/ESD-3.1-1991."
Objective:
To observe, test and record performance
levels of ionization units, utilizing readily available
equipment, thereby verifying or certifying calibration.
Equipment Used:
Charged Plate Analyzer (Item 94052)
Procedure:
1. Position the COUNTER SPI 12 inches away from
the 94052 directly facing the unit.
2. With the COUNTER SPI and the 94052 on, adjust
the balance trim pot, located on the lower left side
of the 94000. Balance the 94000 to zero on the
94052.
NOTE:
there are 3 LEDs located on the
front panel. The one on the left is the on light, the
