Compressed air products
How do I choose the right product to remove static electricity in my production?
Here is a brief summary of what you might want to consider to choose the most suitable product or solution to remove static electricity in your production process.
Material
What is the type of material to be treated? If it is a delicate or lightweight material that might be affected by an air flow, it is more appropriate to use a Gen4 Ionising Bar which removes static charges without the use of compressed air.
Surface area
To remove static electricity from large surfaces or areas, it is more effective to use a product that combines ionisation with an air flow. There are a variety of products to choose from here - including different types of ionisation air knives and ionisation guns.
Movement
Is the material in motion? Then it is best to use anti-static products that use compressed air and are very effective in removing static electricity and other contaminants over large areas, but also over long distances.
Amount of static electricity
If there is a lot of static electricity to be neutralised, deionisation with compressed air works best.
Installation
Is there plenty of space around the material to be treated? If not, it may be beneficial to use Gen4 Ionising Bar without compressed air, as it has a more compact design.
