Static electricity can be a major nuisance in manufacturing facilities. It can affect the finish/quality of the products being produced, impact the speed of the operation, and even cause workers to experience uncomfortable shocks. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Whether passing assemblies down a conveyor or building a product at a workstation, EXAIR offers an engineered static elimination solution.
To help you select the best static eliminator for your application, EXAIR provides real world use cases on static removal with EXAIR ionizers.
Varistat Benchtop Ionizer™
The EXAIR Varistat Benchtop Ionizer is a fan-driven static eliminator designed to neutralize unwanted static charges on surfaces in demanding industrial settings. Operation is hands-free and without the need for a compressed air supply. Manually adjustable, the Varistat provides full coverage static elimination for workbenches, part assembly, web cleaning and more. It can be easily mounted on equipment or placed on workbenches to assist with consistent static neutralization. Capable of reducing 1000 volts to 100 in .8 seconds, the Varistat Benchtop Ionizer removes surface static at a distance with incredible efficiency. The Varistat features an adjustable mounting stand, selectable voltage, variable fan speed, and adjustable polarity.
EXAIR's White Paper "Basics of Static Electricity" is designed to help readers learn about the causes of static electricity, the steps that can be taken to eliminate static, and the products available to help control it.
Intellistat® Ion Air Nozzle
Workstation Static Eliminator
The Intellistat Ion Air Nozzle produces a stream of ionized compressed air to neutralize static and blow off dust particles during cleaning, testing, and assembly. It is designed to use minimal compressed air while delivering precise blow-off and exceptional static decay rates capable of reducing 1000 volts to less than 100 in under one second. It has an integral stainless steel adjustable bracket so that it can be easily mounted to benchtops and machine frames, allowing for hands-free operation. It is ideal for applications requiring non-conductivity such as circuit board or electronic manufacturing. The Intellistat Ion Air Nozzle is rated Class 5 for clean rooms per ISO 14644-1.
Intellistat® Ion Air Gun
Eliminates More Static Faster
Like the Intellistat Ion Air Nozzle, the handheld Intellistat Ion Air Gun produces a stream of ionized compressed air to neutralize static and remove troublesome particulates during clean processes, test procedures and sensitive assembly work. It uses minimal compressed air to deliver precise blow-off and exceptional static decay rates capable of reducing 1000 volts to less than 100 in under one second. The Intellistat's short-throw trigger and lightweight polycarbonate frame allows for extended use without fatigue. It is ideal for applications requiring non-conductivity such as circuit board or electronic manufacturing. It is rated Class 5 for clean rooms per ISO 14644-1.
