The presence of clean air outdoors and indoors is an integral part of a comfortable human life. In a situation with air pollution in the city, it is difficult to do something large-scale with the air, while improving the atmosphere of the room will not be difficult. In stores, you can buy purifiers, humidifiers and air ionizers, which are designed to create the most comfortable conditions for life and work. There is not always a need to buy something, you can create an air ionizer on your own.

Peculiarities

Air is the fundamental environment for human life, and the quality and duration of life will depend on the state of the air environment. Emissions from factories, industrial waste, a small number of trees and green areas, all this affects the quality of the air and the amount of useful components in it. The most beneficial for humans are negatively contaminated ions, which are necessary for a full life.

In a city and apartment, the required amount of such ions is reduced by 15 times, which can cause serious harm to health and cause many diseases. In view of the difficult environmental situation in many countries, people must take care of themselves, by all possible means clearing the air masses around them. The presence of an ionizer at home significantly helps to deal with the problem, which is associated with its main properties:

  • the ability to normalize the work of the cardiovascular system;
  • helps a person stay active longer, slows down the aging process;
  • has a beneficial effect on the functioning of the immune system;
  • blocks the occurrence of many infectious diseases, as well as allergies;
  • helps to sleep normally, eliminates the problem of insomnia;
  • improves the feeling of hunger if there were problems with appetite;
  • has a beneficial effect on the work of the brain, increasing its performance;
  • is a preventive measure in the fight against cancer;
  • neutralizes the influence of electrical impulses from household appliances on a person.

Thanks to the presence of an ionizer at home, you can get rid of dust particles, bacteria and viruses, as well as all kinds of allergens that negatively affect a person in the room. Such a device will also be very useful in the presence of children who are even more sensitive and have a weak immune system. The ionizer should be used only from the moment the baby has grown up; up to a year, the use of the ionizer is considered undesirable.

In order for an air ionizer to be useful, it is important to create certain environmental conditions. So, in a too dirty and dusty room, there will be very little sense from using it. An important feature of the device is the sphere of influence, which extends to healthy people and those who do not suffer from serious diseases.

It is considered inappropriate to use an ionizer when a person has malignant tumors or the body temperature is too high due to a disease.

Device device

At home, both a purchased device and a self-made device can be used, but the device and principle of operation will be similar for them. To get the sole benefit of the ionizer, you must adhere to these rules of its use.

  • Wet cleaning of all surfaces, especially the floor, carried out daily.The consequence of the operation of the ionizer is the settling of a large amount of dust, which must be removed in a timely manner, otherwise there will be no beneficial effect.
  • You can use the device no more than 2 hours a day, after which it must be turned off for a day. It is strictly forbidden to turn on the ionizer for the whole day.
  • When using the device, the correct distance must be maintained, which must not be less than 1.5 meters.

The benefits of an air ionizer are obvious, because many people strive to have it at home. In order not to spend extra money, you can make such a device yourself. The safest salt lamp is considered, which is suitable for both children and adults and does not have a negative effect.

    If you want to make any other air ionizer with your own hands, then you should know these rules.

    • Details for the device must be selected correctly, clearly correspond to the scheme and be placed in a housing that suits them in size. It is important to place capacitors and diodes as far apart as possible.
    • The leads should be covered with paraffin to avoid corona discharge.
    • The device should not emit extraneous odors, this will be an indication of malfunctions or problems in the design.
    • Before testing the device for the entire apartment, you need to make sure it is working correctly.

    Thinking about how to create an air ionizer with your own hands, you should prepare well for the device to be really useful, otherwise it will be a waste of time and money, and also carries a risk due to incorrect operation of the ionizer.

    Self-production

    An air ionizer can be created from parts available at home that are idle or are in non-working household appliances. There can be many options for constructing a device, it all depends on the experience of the master and the type of ionizer. The simplest option requires the following components:

    • a small plastic container, for which you can take an egg from "Kinder";
    • 2 wires with a diameter of 0.5 mm;
    • a plug having an adjustable type;
    • insulating materials;
    • scissors with which the installation will be carried out;
    • the needle with which the holes will be made.

    In the egg from under the "Kinder" 2 holes are made with a needle into which the wire will be inserted. In one part it is necessary to insert a wire with positively charged particles, in the other - with negatively charged ones. The cores must be insulated and connected together. The second part of the wire connects to the plug.

    Such a device must be placed in an appropriately sized box and placed out of reach of children and pets.

    You can create an air ionizer for a car, which requires a transformer. Creating a device from a line transformer will be a little more complicated, but many can do it. The device can be taken in an old computer or TV. New wires need to be wound on the core, which has been freed from the old winding. This process must be done correctly, as it consists of several stages, primary and secondary winding. The primary assumes 14 turns, and the secondary 600.

    For the design to be safe, it must be insulated using ordinary tape. With the secondary winding, it is important to insulate the structure, using tape after every 100 turns. The finished transformer must be connected to the timer. The next step will be the design of a voltage multiplier, which requires KTs 106 diodes and capacitors with a power of up to 10 kW and 3300 pF. The multiplier electrodes should be installed at a distance of 3 cm, after which the device is ready and can be connected to the network.

    The most popular ionizer that can be made at home is the Chizhevsky chandelier. The circuit of this device is simple.

    • An aluminum hoop 1 m in diameter is the basis of the device.
    • Copper wires with a diameter of 1 mm, which are fixed to the base.
    • The distance between the wires should be about 45 mm.
    • The mesh should not be stretched, it is better if the wires sag up to 90 mm.
    • At the intersection of the copper wires, it is necessary to solder needles no more than 5 cm long. It is important that the needles are as sharp as possible, because a negative charge will drain through them.
    • Attach 3 copper wires with a diameter of 1 mm to the base at an equal distance.
    • The other end of these wires must be soldered together over the base.
    • Connecting the generator at the point where the copper wires are held together.

    To ensure the operability of such a lamp, a voltage of more than 25 kW is needed, and for a larger room, about 50 sq. m, the voltage should be up to 40 kW. The optimal distance from the chandelier to the person should be 1.5 meters. When you turn off the device, do not touch it for a while, as it carries a residual charge.

    During operation of the device, you do not need to touch it, as a person can be hit by a discharge, which will harm health.

    Despite its popularity, the Chizhevsky chandelier also has its weaknesses, which are expressed in the release of harmful biologically active gases. To solve this problem, it was decided to assemble a bipolar air ionizer that was different from its predecessor. Such a device released not only useful aeroions, but also useless ones, which did not allow an increase in the level of electrostatic voltage in the room. You can make an ionizer using:

    • generator;
    • high voltage transformer;
    • voltage multiplier;
    • power supply unit.

    To create the device correctly, without missing anything, it is worth purchasing a complete set for self-assembly, which resembles a designer. The most common manufacturer is Master-Kit, which has established itself as a reliable company. Its products and parts are of good quality and low cost.

    It is not too difficult to create an air ionizer on your own, but it is still necessary to have the general basics of radio engineering, the ability to solder and work with various materials. Most devices operate on voltage, and therefore it is worth being careful in work so as not to get an electric shock and not cause a fire hazard.
