EXAIR Gen4 standard ion air knife

The EXAIR Gen 4 Standard Ion Air Knife reduces static electricity approximately 30% better at low inlet pressures, saving compressed air while improving production speeds, product quality and surface cleanliness. The air knife eliminates static on plastics, webs, sheet stock and other product surfaces where tearing, jamming or hazardous shocks are a problem.

The product is CE, UL and RoHS Certified and design features include a metal armoured high-voltage cable to protect against abrasion and cuts, integrated ground connection and electromagnetic shielding. A selectable voltage power supply has also been designed to operate Gen4 products.

The product incorporates EXAIR’s Standard Air Knife, minimising compressed air use by inducing surrounding airflow at a ratio of 30:1. The amplified airflow carries the ions to the target, thereby eliminating static charges in less time. Air volume and velocity are controllable from a ‘breeze’ to a ‘blast’ to wipe or forcefully blow away debris.

The Air Knife product line is available in 76 to 1219 mm lengths. The electrical ion source is shockless, with no radioactive element.

Applications include surface cleaning, neutralising plastics, bag opening, printing machinery, packaging operations and elimination of static electricity shocks.
