Aerostat Guardian 5100650-M Rev 2 3
1.2 Features
The Aerostat Guardian produces an air flow that is rich in positive
and negative ions. Directing the air flow on an object that has a
static electricity charge will neutralize the charge. If the object has a
positive static charge, it will draw negative ions from the air flow. If
the object has a negative static charge, it will draw positive ions from
the air flow. The ions are attracted to the oppositely charged object
and will neutralize the electrostatic charge on the object.
The Aerostat Guardian features both Simco-Ion's inherent self
balance technology and a built-in emitter point cleaner. Like Simco-
Ion's other Aerostat series ionizing air blowers, the Guardian
operates on AC technology to provide stable balance performance
over long periods of use. It is available with airflow diffusers for
superior static charge decay efficiency over a large work surface
area. Without diffusers, the Aerostat Guardian provides fast charge
decay directly under the unit for targeted work surface coverage.
The Aerostat Guardian requires very little maintenance to ensure
electrostatic charge is controlled within the work surface area.
