Dear customer,
Electrostatic charges occurring during production processes often cause
severe disruptions, reducing production speed and product quality.
The R55 Ion Blower Head and the PR55 Ion Blower Pistol are both com-
ponents of the established Eltex discharging system with outstanding
range and depth effect.
The powerful decoupling effect of neutralizing charge particles supported
by the blown air results in a high degree of efficiency in discharging, even
at larger distances from the product.
The air exit profile is tuned to the discharging and/or ionization gap such
that the transition from pile to shingle stream is possible even at high cycle
rates. In reverse order, i.e. when going from shingles to copies, the ion
blower head allows straight-edged stacking at high process speeds. Also,
shingle stream separation is greatly improved.
Charged surfaces binding dirt particles can be efficiently discharged both
with the blower pistol and with the blower head, removing dust effectively
before print finishing.
The air flow exiting from the hole-type nozzles is turbulent. Due to its opti-
mized flow geometry, the fishtail nozzle delivers a target-specific spot air
flow for long ranges.
The compact design of the new ion blower head and its high efficiency
allow a wide variety of applications.
Please read these instructions carefully before starting the unit. This will
help you prevent personal injuries and damage to property.
Simply give us a call if you have any suggestions, proposals or ideas for
improvements. We greatly appreciate the feedback from the users of our
appliances.

To prevent damaging, we advise the use of a balancer together with an ion
blower pistol. The cable routing is made parallel to the air routing in a spi-
ral tube (see Fig. 2). A balancer without air and cable routing is available
as optional equipment under article no. 111569.
A design with grease filter is available for ultra-clean blowing air. The
grease filter solely serves to eliminate grease and fat particles from the
piston gear of the blower pistol. Cleaned apparatuses air must be used as
compressed air.

2. Safety
The units have been designed, built and tested using state-of-the-art engi-
neering, and have left the factory in a technically and operationally safe
condition. If used improperly, the units may nevertheless be hazardous to
personnel and may cause injury or damage. Read the operating instruc-
tions carefully and observe the safety instructions.
2.1 Proper Use
The ion blower head R55 and the ion blower pistol PR55 must be used
only for discharging static surfaces, for separating stacked or wound
sheets, and for cleaning dusty surfaces.
The ion blower heads R55 and the ion blower pistol PR55 must be opera-
ted only together with the 5 or 6 kV AC Eltex power supplies which ensure
an optimum match with the required operating conditions. Other uses are
not permitted.
The manufacturers will not assume any liability and warranty if the units
are used improperly or used outside the intended purpose.
Modifications or changes made to the devices are not permitted.
Use only original Eltex spare parts and equipment.
2.2 Identification of risks and hazards
Possible risks and hazards resulting from the use of the units are referred
to in these operating instructions by the following symbols:
Warning!
This symbol appearing in the operating instructions refers to operations
which, if carried out improperly, may result in serious personal injuries.
