Description
Benchtop Blower Model IN5110
The Model IN5110 68KHz AC benchtop air ionizer is a
small, efficient static elimination device with variable fan
speed for protecting electronic components and general
static protection. Using AC corona technology, to make
the air more conductive, Ptec™ ionizers produce a bal-
anced stream of positive and negative air ions that never
need calibration. These devices are used in many indus-
tries and manufacturing applications where static electric-
ity is a problem.
About Ptec™ Technology
A specialized piezoelectric high voltage transformer
makes Ptec™ ionizers among the most reliable ionizers
manufactured. Small, lightweight and stable, Ptec™ prod-
ucts are designed to remain in balance and to alarm when
the HV output affects performance. The model IN5110
benchtop static eliminator produces a 68KHz AC output of
approximately 2200V and a continuous stream of bal-
anced air ions.
Ionizers that use Ptec™ technology do not require
calibration and only minimal maintenance.
Features
On the front panel of the IN5110 are two LEDs. The
green LED indicates that power is applied to the unit. The
red LED is illuminated when an alarm condition occurs. A
variable fan speed control, on-off switch, and removable
finger guard are also on the front panel.

The rear panel of the ionizer has the 24 VDC power input
connector and a grounding point.
Physically small and light.
Rapidly decays static charges.
Excellent ion balance and ionization performance.
Ionization (green) and HV alarm (red) lights.
No periodic adjustments.
Durable, replaceable tungsten alloy emitter points.
Removable front grill.
Adjustable air volume.
Power Requirements
The Model IN5110 High frequency AC benchtop air
ionizer is powered by an external DC switching power sup-
ply that operates from 100-240 VAC 50/60 Hz. The output
of the supply is +24 VDC @ 500 mA.
The IN5110 blower operates on an input of +24 VDC,
7W.
Operation and Use
Environmental Conditions
The IN5110 can be operated in areas where humidity
is 20-70% RH (Non-condensing). Excess humidity may af-
fect ionizer performance. The temperature range for the
IN5110 is 65-78°F (18-25° C).

Set-up and Placement
Use the IN5110 benchtop blower in proximity to a
static sensitive area or object. The unit can be set on the
workstation or mounted to a structure, using the u-
shaped mounting bracket and hardware. Point the unit at
the area to be protected.
Power Connection
Connect the AC adapter to the main unit, and plug it
in an AC socket. (Caution: Do not substitute an-
other AC adapter without consulting the factory).
Make certain the unit is grounded.
Turn the unit on to start the corona process. The ion-
izer creates a continuous stream of positive and
negative air ions. The ionized airflow is directed
through the front grill. Charged objects in the ioniza-
tion area are rapidly neutralized .
The ion airflow is adjustable using the fan speed con-
trol knob.
The red alarm indicator light illuminates in the event
of a problem with the high voltage power output.
Turn the power switch off after operation.
Caution
!
Do not use this ionizer in an explosive environ-
ment! Corona ionizers produce a weak plasma
that can cause ignition in explosive environ-
ments.

Maintenance
The only regular maintenance required for the
IN5110 is the periodic cleaning of the emitter points and
ionizer grill. It is recommended that the IN5110 be
cleaned once a month. Emitter point cleaning affects
the static decay ability of the ionizer and is important for
maintaining its optimal performance.
Cleaning the front grill and external chassis
Disassemble the front grill by squeezing the grill side
clips. Temporarily remove the grill. Clean it with a polyes-
ter wiper and a cleaning solution of 50% IPA (electronic-
grade isopropyl alcohol) and 50% de-ionized water. As-
semble it when it is dry. Use the same method to clean
the exterior of the unit, including the inlet grill.
Cleaning the emitter points
Contaminants will gradually accumulate on the tip
of the emitter points with continuous use. Periodic clean-
ing of the emitter points is necessary to maintain the per-
formance of the ionizer. If the emitter points are dirty,
clean them with a polyester or cotton swab and IPA. Do
not damage or loosen the emitter points.
Filter
The IN5110 comes with a filter, p/n 22-6450. Contact
Transforming Technologies for replacements filters.
Caution
!
The only serviceable parts inside the ionizer are
the replaceable emitter points. Any unauthor-
ized service will void the warranty and may
result in additional repair fees.
4
Follow these instructions to clean the emitter points:
1. Remove the front grill.
2. Moisten a swab or wiping cloth in the IPA solution.
3. Swab or wipe the emitter points until they are free of
particles.
4. Make certain the emitter points are straight and parallel
to the plane of the fan.
5. Replace the front grill.
6. Make sure the emitter points are dry before powering the
ionizer again.
Emitter Point Replacement
The IN5110 uses 10 tungsten alloy precision etched
emitter needles. Contact Transforming Technologies for in-
formation about ordering replacement emitters. The part
number for emitters is listed below:
Replacement part Part Number
Tungsten replacement emitters 22-6423
Replacement Filter 22-6450
Because the IN5110 high voltage output is AC, emitter
erosion from the ionization process on the electrodes is
minimal. Unless physically broken or stressed, the IN5110
emitters should last the life of the ionizer.
Follow these instructions to remove the emitter points:
1. Turn off and disconnect the unit from the AC power.
2. Remove the front grill.
3. Unscrew the threaded emitter point using a needle nose
pliers.
4. Replace and tighten the new emitter using the same
tool. Do not over-tighten.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 as required.

6. Make certain the emitter points are straight and paral-
lel to the plane of the fan.
7. Replace the front grill.
Bracket Removal
The IN5110 blower can be removed from the univer-
sal bracket by unscrewing the side knobs. Note that
there are washers located between the side knobs, stand
and chassis.
Service
Ptec™ ionizers are reliable products with a long ser-
vice life. If you feel your unit is not operating properly,
