How to Use the PYRO-ENERGEN - Others
Discharging the PYRO-ENERGEN
*It is completely unnecessary to discharge the machine after every session, especially if the unit and the mesh net or metal screen are affixed in a certain place. The machine also discharges by itself after several hours.*
After completing your treatment session and unplugging the unit, the high tension voltage can persist for hours, and you may experience a slight shock if the Output High Voltage is accidentally touched. A short 20-inch Discharge Cable, included with the unit, will be used to discharge the high voltage. This is a quick process that only takes a few seconds.
Discharging Procedure:
- First and foremost, unplug the unit's AC power line cord from the wall outlet or turn off the power extension bar if you're using one.
- Using the Discharge Cable (holding only the plastic insulated handle), touch the black plug to the black jack (Discharger/Ground) at the front of the unit.
- Then, tap the red plug to the red jack (High Voltage Discharger) at the back of the unit repeatedly until the spark is gone. Do not attempt to touch it to the Output High Voltage terminal!
Note: You do not need to fully insert the plugs. You simply need to make a metal-to-metal contact (a short circuit).
Other important things to remember:
- Depending on the weather conditions, discharging the machine immediately after use may produce a bigger discharge spark due to a large buildup of static electricity. Ideally, in these cases, it would be better to wait for about 5 minutes before discharging the machine so that the bulk of static electricity has already subsided, resulting in less buildup of electricity for the discharge system to filter.
- If the machine is being used continually by different people throughout the whole day (such as in wellness centers), we suggest not using the discharge cable to avoid repeatedly discharging the static electricity every now and then, to avoid unnecessary stress to the machine. Only remember that the next patient sits on an insulated chair before their feet touch the plate. This is to ensure that they are no longer grounded in the first place.
About the Built-in Air Ionizer
The PYRO-ENERGEN electrostatic therapy machine comes with an air ionizer built in. The negative ions are continuously emitted around the patient's body while they undergo PYRO-ENERGEN treatment.
