B486110 High Frequency Air Ionizer User Manual
Product Overview
The Botron B486110 is a compact benchtop air ionizer designed for localized static elimination at workstations, assembly lines, and precision manufacturing environments. It effectively protects electronic components and sensitive devices from Electrostatic Discharge (ESD), helping maintain product integrity and process reliability.
In addition to electronics manufacturing, the B486110 is widely used in plastics, printing, film production, medical device manufacturing, and food packaging—any application where controlled static neutralization is essential.
The unit is CE approved and engineered for safe, reliable operation.

Quick Start Guide
Installation & Operating Location
Position the unit where the power switch and indicator lights are clearly visible and accessible.
Keep the device away from water, oil, high temperatures, high humidity, and excessive dust.
⚠ Do not operate the device in flammable or explosive environments.
⚠ Do not insert objects into the air inlet louver. Keep airflow unobstructed at all times.
Usage Instructions
- Install the main unit onto the stand.
- Place the rubber pads between the main unit and stand. Adjust the angle and tighten the knob bolts securely.
- The unit may be used on a desktop, integrated into machinery, or mounted on a production line using the mounting holes (3-φ4.5).
- Connect the supplied AC adapter to the main unit and plug it into an AC power outlet.
- ⚠ Do not use an alternate AC adapter.
- Turn on the main power switch.
- The electrodes will generate corona discharge and produce ionized airflow through the front louver. Charged objects within the ionization area will be neutralized rapidly.
- Adjust airflow using the airflow control knob as needed.
- The device automatically maintains ion balance — no adjustment is required.
- If the red alarm indicator illuminates, power off the unit, inspect and correct the issue, then restore power.
- Turn off the power switch after operation.
Connection Terminals & Alarm Output:
Connection Terminals as follows:
The B486110 provides external alarm signal output for integration with monitoring systems, indicator lights, buzzers, or control equipment.
Two relay types are available:
NC (Normally Closed)
The circuit is closed during normal operation and will open during a fault condition.
NO (Normally Open)
The circuit is open during normal operation and will close during a fault condition.
The alarm output will activate under the following conditions:
• Low high-voltage output
• High-voltage short circuit
• Abnormal high-voltage discharge
• Power loss
Ionization Performance
Performance testing was conducted in accordance with American EOS/ESD-STM3.1-2000 standards.
| Distance (mm) | Positive Decay (sec) | Negative Decay (sec) |
| 300 | 1.4 | 1.6 |
| 600 | 2.9 | 3.5 |
| 900 | 5.4 | 6.3 |
Ion Balance: Within 0 ± 5 V
Note: The testing figures will vary slightly in different testing conditions.
Daily Maintenance
Regular cleaning is essential to maintain optimal ionization performance.
Cleaning the Front Louver
- Press the side tabs inward to remove the front louver.
- Clean using a cotton swab or a neutral detergent solution.
- Reinstall only after completely dry.
Cleaning the Discharge Emitter
Dust and contamination may accumulate at the needle tip over time.
- Exercise caution — the emitter tip is sharp.
- Clean gently using a cotton swab (recommended every 100 hours of operation).
- For heavy buildup, use alcohol with a cotton swab.
- Do not damage or loosen the discharge needle.
Replacing the Discharge Emitter
- Press and rotate the needle base clockwise to loosen.
- Use a tool to carefully remove the needle.
- Install the new needle.
- Rotate the base counterclockwise to secure.
Clean the Filter
- Wash with a neutral detergent solution.
- Reinstall only after completely dry.
⚠ NOTE: Failure to perform regular cleaning will reduce ionization efficiency.
