Standard Ion Air Knife™
A sheet of ionized air is an effective way to eliminate static and clean parts or materials!
The Model 7218 18" (457mm) Standard
Ion Air Knife System shows parts with static
eliminating ions to prevent personnel shocks.
What Is the Standard Ion Air Knife?
Back To Top
EXAIR's Standard Ion Air Knife is an effective way to eliminate static. Like its "super" counterpart, the Standard Ion Air Knife removes static electricity from plastics, webs, sheet stock and other surfaces where tearing, jamming or hazardous shocks are a problem.
This ionizer uses our original Standard Air Knife to carry ions from an ionizing bar to the charged surface - up to 20 feet (6.1m) away. Though not as efficient as our Super Ion Air Knife (40:1 air amplification), the Standard Ion Air Knife (30:1 air amplification) still provides fast static decay and strong blowoff force for cleaning. Force can be adjusted from a "blast" to a "breeze". The Standard Ion Air Knife is electrically powered, is shockless and has no moving parts.

Air Knife System cleans metal frames prior
to powder coating.
Why The Standard Ion Air Knife?
Back To Top
When air consumption and noise level are not critical to the application, the lower cost makes the Standard Ion Air Knife a good choice. (To compare the Super Ion Air Knife and Standard Ion Air Knife, see the performance table on the Super Ion Air Knife page and the performance table for the Standard Ion Air Knife, below.) Compressed air inlets are provided on each end of the Standard Ion Air Knife. For long spans, multiple Standard Ion Air Knives can be mounted end-to-end. This produces an air gap at the connection end of about 2" (51mm). (If no air gap is desired, use the Super Ion Air Knife.) Special length Ionizing Bars up to 120" (3.05m) are available for multiple air knife applications.
A Model 7103 3" (76mm) Standard Ion Air Knife removes
dust from computer hard disks prior to assembly.

Universal Air Knife Mounting System
The Model 9060 Universal Air Knife Mounting System is used to provide secure, precise positioning for any of the EXAIR Air Knives. It can be mounted on either the top or bottom of most Air Knives (Super Air Knife, Standard Air Knife and Full-Flow Air Knife). The Universal Air Knife Mounting System has a durable, stainless steel construction that is suitable for a variety of industrial applications. Visit the Super Air Knife Accessories Page for more information about the Universal Air Knife Mounting System.
Electronic Flow Control (EFC)
EXAIR's EFC is an electronic flow control
that dramatically reduces compressed air costs by turning off the
compressed air when no part is present. This minimizes compressed air
use for blow off, drying, cooling, conveying and static elimination
operations. The EFC combines a photoelectric sensor with a timing
control that limits compressed air use by turning it off when no
part is present. Visit the EFC page for
more information.
