IONIZING AIR NOZZLES 5200378 Rev. F
To Disassemble
1. Turn the power supply OFF.
2. Disconnect the airline and the ground wire from the nozzle.
3. Simply remove the nozzle from the high voltage cable by sliding it toward the power
supply and off (first, remove the spring-loaded connector if used).
NOTE – If shielded cable is used, the shielding must first be removed from the
cable before each nozzle can be removed. The shielding can be disconnected
from the nozzle by loosening the setscrew that retains the cable in the connector
at the nozzle.
4. Remove the nozzle tip using a ¾” wrench.
5. Carefully remove the ionizing point using a deep-well 3/16” nut driver.
6. The ionizing point is capacitively coupled to the high voltage cable. The ionizing
point contacts a brass ring that surrounds the cable inside the nozzle body. After the
point has been removed, the brass ring may be removed from the nozzle body by
pushing with a 9/32” dowel. Be careful not to damage the ends of the brass ring or
the cable may not pass through easily upon reassembly.
To Reassemble
1. Reverse above steps. Do not over tighten any parts or threads in the plastic body may
become stripped.
2. When installing the ionizing point, make certain that it is seated against the brass ring
inside the nozzle body. Also, make certain both the nozzle tip and the pipe nipple are
fully seated against the grounding spring that runs through the nozzle body.
NOTE – If shielded cable is used, make certain all shield connections are clean and
secure, since the shielding provides the ground connections necessary for proper
nozzle operation.
3. After reassembly is complete, check that the ionizing point is centered within the
nozzle tip, and then perform an operational check as described in the Troubleshooting
section of this manual.
