EXAIR static eliminators
We offer a comprehensive range of products and solutions to remove static electricity, dust and other contaminants in various industrial processes. Static electricity can also cause materials to stick together or to machinery, creating problems in production. High levels of static electricity can also be a safety hazard for employees or cause damage to machinery.
Static eliminators neutralise static electricity by emitting positive and negative ions. When a charged surface attracts these ions, it becomes neutralised. EXAIR static elimination solutions include both compressed air assisted and non-air static eliminators, each tailored to meet specific needs.

Neutralising static electricity with or without compressed air? What is the difference?
To remove static electricity in production, you can choose between anti-static solutions that operate with or without compressed air.
Gen4 Super Ion Air Knife - deionisation with compressed air
The air knife combines ionisation with airflow to quickly remove static charges and contaminants over large surfaces, moving parts and hard-to-reach areas.
Compressed air flows through an inlet (1) into the plenum chamber of the Gen4 Super Ion Air Knife. The flow is directed into a precise, slit-shaped opening. As the primary airflow passes out, it forms a smooth air blade along its entire length, which instantly entrains the surrounding air (2). An electric Gen4 ionising bar (3) fills the air curtain with positive and negative charges. The airflow of these static elimination ions to the product surface (4), where it instantly neutralises static electricity and blows away dust and other particles.
Gen4 Ionising Bar - deionisation without compressed air
Ideal for use on delicate or lightweight materials, which may be adversely affected by an air flow. Compact and efficient solution for close-range applications.
The electromagnetically shielded power cable (1) conducts 5 kVrms from the power supply to each inductively coupled stainless steel emitter tip (2) on the Gen4 Ionising Bar. An integrated ground wire (3) in the power cable creates a discharge path from the emitter tips to the rod body (4). The discharge at each emitter charges the gas molecules in the surrounding air, resulting in a flow of positively and negatively charged ions (5). If the material surface has a negative charge, it attracts the positive ions from the Gen4 Ionizing Bar and becomes balanced or neutralised. If the material surface has a positive charge, it attracts the negative ions from the Gen4 Ionizing Bar and becomes balanced or neutralised.
How to choose the right type of product to remove static electricity in 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 - 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.
