Watto's ionizer
An ionizer was a device used to stabilize ion fields for delicate maintenance.
Description
A tall, metallic cylinder, the ionizer rested on a base with a spinner motor inside, underneath a charge generator assembly. Above were two sets of ionizer arrays, one complex and one simple, the former including sweeper screens that stabilized local fields for delicate maintenance. The device's manual start knob was situated atop the device, beneath its tapered cap.[1]
