The Science Behind Bar Ionizers

At their core, bar ionizers are designed to tackle the pervasive challenge of static electricity in industrial environments. These devices work by emitting a balanced stream of positive and negative ions into the air, which neutralizes the static charge on objects. This process, known as intrinsically balanced ionization, is critical in preventing static-induced damage or interference with electronic components, products, and equipment.

One of the key features of bar ionizers is their ability to produce ionized air through laminar flow, ensuring a consistent and targeted distribution of ions. This is particularly beneficial in environments where static control is crucial for maintaining product quality and operational safety. Moreover, the flexibility of cable lengths with bar ionizers allows for easy integration into various operational setups, further enhancing their utility and effectiveness in static control.

Applications Across Industries

Bar ionizers find their utility in a broad spectrum of industries, ranging from electronics manufacturing to pharmaceutical production. Their ability to efficiently neutralize static charge makes them indispensable in processes that involve sensitive electronic components, where even a small static discharge can result in significant damage or data loss. Similarly, in the pharmaceutical industry, static control is vital for preventing contamination and ensuring the integrity of the manufacturing process.

The versatility of bar ionizers extends to industries dealing with packaging and printing, where static electricity can cause materials to stick together, leading to jams and production delays. By incorporating ionizing bars into these operations, businesses can significantly reduce downtime and enhance productivity. Furthermore, the adoption of static eliminators in cleanroom environments ensures that high standards of cleanliness and particle control are maintained, critical for industries where even minor contaminants can compromise product quality.

Choosing the Right Bar Ionizer for Your Needs

Selecting the appropriate bar ionizer involves considering several key factors, including the size of the area needing static control, the nature of the materials involved, and the specific requirements of your operation. Ionizing bars with intrinsically balanced ionization ensure a consistent and effective neutralization of static charges, making them suitable for a wide range of applications. Additionally, considering the laminar flow capability and cable length options can further tailor the static control solution to your operational needs.

IZS31, Bar Type Ionizer w/Feedback or Auto ba-L-0F

The IZS31 is SMC's 2nd generation bar ionizer. Bar ionizers generate a curtain of static eliminating ions effective for a distance up to 2000mm / 6.5 ft. The IZS31 can be operated with feedback sensor for the most rapid static elimination, or the auto balance sensor for a neutral environment with high accuracy. 3 different run modes available to tailor ion generation to a range of static conditions. Needle cartridges are easily removed without tools for cleaning or end-of-life replacement.

IZS40/41/42, Bar Type Ionizer (Standard, Feed-L-zU

The IZS4 family is SMC's 3rd generation of bar ionizers. Bar ionizers generate a curtain of static eliminating ions effective for a distance up to 2000mm / 6.5 ft. The family includes the standard IZS40 model, the IZS41 with feedback or auto balance sensor and rapid static neutralization, and the IZS42 with low amplitude ion generation for sensitive electronics. The IZS41 and 42 are remote control capable, and can be linked via cable for operation from a single power supply. Needle cartridges are easily removed without tools for cleaning or end-of-life replacement.

IZS, Electrode Cartridges

Replacement electrode cartridges for Series IZS bar ionizers. Cartridge types include both high speed and energy saving. Materials: tungsten, silicon, stainless steel.

IZT40/41/42, Bar Type Ionizer, Separate Contr-L-Fz

The IZT bar ionizer is an industrial static control solution. Bar ionizers generate a curtain of static eliminating ions effective for a distance up to 2000mm/6.5 ft. The IZT's low profile is also ideal for tight clearance installations. Compared to SMC's IZS4 bar ionizers, the power supply and control modules have been separated from the bar, resulting in a reduction in bar height. IZT bars can be placed closer to static-carriying materials in more confined adjacent spaces. The separate controller can be mounted in a workstation for easier access and observation during operation. Models include the standard IZT40, the IZT41 which adds auto-balance, emitter maintenance detection, and I/O signals, and the IZT42 with low amplitude ion generation for sensitive electronics. Extending the value of IZT, one controller can manage a maximum of 4 ionizing bars. Needle cartridges are easily removed, without tools, for cleaning or end-of-life replacement, futher extending this ionizer's value.

The IZTB bar ionizer is the ion emitting component of the IZT static control system. This component is available for individual configuration as an additional bar to existing 1-bar system, or as a replacement. A complete system consists of 1 to 4 bars, a single controller, and a power supply module for each bar, plus cables and accessories as required. These components can also be ordered separately.

IZTP, High-voltage Power Supply Module

The IZTP power supply module is the high-voltage source component for the IZT static control system. Modules generate ions in AC (+/- blended ions), DC (fixed polarity ions), or Dual AC (low amplitude +/- blended ions) mode, depending on selection and as directed by the controller. This component is available individually to expand an existing system, or as a replacement. A complete system consists of any mixture of 1 to 4 IZTB bars and/or IZTN nozzles, an IZTP power supply module for each ionizer, and a single IZTC controller, plus cables and accessories as required.
