Installation on Laminar Flow Hoods
When ordered with a laminar flow hood, the IonBar™ is installed in the exact same way as with a fan/filter unit in a
cleanroom. The mounting brackets will rest on the top edges of the hood and the FFU will be placed directly on top of
the brackets, holding the IonBar™ in position. The IonBar™ emitters will aim downwards toward the work surface.
Whether incorporated into a laminar-flow system or used as a stand-alone device, the IonBar™ requires connection
to a 24V power transformer. If the IonBar™ is ordered with the Installation Kit, the power transformer, power cable,
and appropriate mounting clips will be included.
1.
Use a telephone-type connector and low-voltage cable to connect the IonBar™ to the power transformer.
2.
Connect the transformer to the appropriate power supply (120VAC or 240VAC).
NOTE
A single transformer provides ample power for up to 20 emitter pairs. Depending on the length
of your IonBar™, multiple units can be interconnected using low-voltage telephone cable to
daisy-chain the units.
Once connected to power, the IonBar™ immediately emits balanced streams of positive and negative ions through
each emitter pair. Effective ion distribution requires an airflow speed of at least 50 fpm.
Do not block access to the power transformer. This connection serves as the main disconnect
for the system in the event of an emergency.
CAUTION
