A head 2 has a through hole 7 into which compressed air is supplied and flows, and a discharge electrode 11 is disposed inside the through hole 7. When a voltage required for discharging is applied to the head 2 made of a conductor and the discharge electrode 11, a corona C is generated at a tip end 11a of the discharge electrode 11, whereby flowing air is ionized. By a cylindrical housing tube portion 17 made of an insulator and receiving most of the discharge electrode 11 and a tapered guide portion (transfer fluid guiding member) 18 formed at a downstream-side end thereof, an air flow is biased and guided on a side of an outer circumference thereof so as not to rush directly against the corona generating region. Thus, even when air supply pressure is increased, an ion balance can be stabilized without almost changing pressure or a flow rate in the corona generating region.
