IQ Easy Speed-T & Hybrid-T
Static Neutralizing Bars
2. DESCRIPTION
The IQ Easy Speed-T and the IQ Easy Hybrid-T are static bars designed to
neutralize electrostatically charged surfaces. Both static bars are equipped with an
integrated high-voltage power unit, ion emitters and status LEDs. They require a 24
VDC supply voltage to be provided via a 5-pin M12 connector.
The IQ Easy Speed-T has been optimized for high web speeds exceeding 1600 feet-
per-minute and/or distances from 2” to 9”, and is available in lengths from 10.8” to
156.9”, in increments of 2.4”.
The IQ Easy Hybrid-T performs at its optimum between a distance of 6” and 18”,
at material speeds below 1600 feet-per-minute, and is available in lengths from 15.1”
to 149.8”, in increments of 7.1”.

The 24 VDC supply voltage is converted inside the static neutralizing bar into
positive and negative high voltage. The high voltage generates an electrical field at
the emitters of the static bar, which causes the air molecules around the emitters
to be converted into positive and negative ions. When an electrostatically charged
material comes within operating distance of the static bar, ions from the static bar
are exchanged with the charged material until the material is neutralized.
The (green) power LED indicates when the static neutralizing bar is in operation,
is in standby or when the bar receives commands. The (red) alarm LED indicates if
the static bar is overloaded or communications is interrupted.
