Description
Ionizing Air Nozzle Model IN3425
The Model IN3425 68KHz AC ionizing air nozzle is a
point-of-use solution for a wide range of static problems.
The IN3425 easily connects to a compressed air source and
offers various output nozzles for specialized applications.
Using AC corona technology to make the air more conduc-
tive, Ptec™ ionizers produce a balanced stream of positive
and negative air ions that never need calibration. The main
unit of the device is equipped with a small HV power unit so
no external HV power unit or HV wiring is needed. The
IN3425 is light, small and free from EMI. It is equipped with
an auto ion balance and abnormal HV monitoring systems.
These devices are used in many industries and manufacturing applications where static electricity is a problem.
About Ptec™ Technology
A specialized piezoelectric high voltage transformer
makes Ptec™ ionizers among the most reliable products
available. Ptec™ ionizers are designed to remain in balance
and to alarm when the HV output affects performance. The
model IN3425 ionizing air nozzle produces a 68KHz AC
output of approximately 2200V and a continuous stream of
balanced air ions. Ionizers that use Ptec™ technology do
not require calibration and only minimal maintenance.

Power Requirements
The Model IN3425 High Frequency AC ionizing air
nozzle is powered by a AC 80V~240V 50/ DC24V
200mA switch power supply. Note: Ionizer must be
grounded.
Operation and Use
Environmental Conditions
The IN3425 can be operated in areas where humidity is 20-70% RH (Non-condensing). Excess humidity
may affect ionizer performance. The temperature range
for the IN3425 is 65-78°F (18-25°C).
Caution
Do not use this ionizer in an explosive environment! Keep it away from inflammable gas or
solvent.
