Ion air wipe Model 8164 Gen4 Super

for cablesfor pipesfor the plastics industry

Overview
EXAIR's Gen4® Super Ion Air Wipe™ provides a uniform 360° ionized airstream that is easy to clamp around a part for eliminating static electricity and contaminants. It is ideal for use on pipe, cable, extruded shapes, hose, wire and more. The high volume, high velocity flow attaches itself to the surface and wipes it down with static eliminating ions. The airflow stays attached to the surface and is effective far away from where the Gen4 Super Ion Air Wipe is mounted. An optional pressure regulator provides infinite control of the air volume and velocity.

Applications

• Clean and neutralize extrusions
• Neutralizing pipe, tubing, wire
• Cleaning molded parts
• Neutralizing static for quality printing
• Pre-paint dust removal
• Remove chips, shavings and sawdust
• Container neutralization

Advantages

• Low air consumption
• Rapid static decay
• Quiet operation
• Non-contact
• Effective up to 15 feet (4.6 m)
• Shockless, non-radioactive
• Compact, rugged, easy to install
• No moving parts - low maintenance
• Variable force and flow

How It Works (summary)
The Super Ion Air Wipe incorporates a Super Air Wipe and a split ionizing collar energized by a power supply. Compressed air is ejected through a small ring nozzle at high velocity to create a conical 360° ring of air that induces surrounding air. The airflow passes through the collar and is ionized by two emitter points. The high velocity ionized airstream attaches to the material surface passing through the Air Wipe, uniformly eliminating static and removing contaminants.

Accessories (included / available)

• Power Supply (Model 7960 / 7961) — selectable voltage power supply required for operation; provides high voltage outlets, lighted power switch, integrated primary fuse; modular shielded cable for EMI protection.
• Shim Sets — stainless steel shims (.002" / 0.05 mm default installed) to set exhaust gap; additional shims can be used to increase flow/force. Shim sets included with kits or available separately.
