What Is The GEN4\u2122 Ionizing Bar?<\/h3><\/div>

The GEN4 Ionizing Bar is engineered to perform up to 25% better than previous models and eliminates static electricity on paper, film and plastics that can attract dust and foreign materials, ruin product appearance, produce tearing or jamming, and zap personnel. The electrically powered GEN4 Ionizing Bar is compact, allowing it to fit in the confined spaces of machinery, where the charge is generated. A high concentration of positive and negative ions produce fast static decay, neutralizing any surface within 4″ (102mm) of the bar.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Why The GEN4\u2122 Ionizing Bar?<\/h3><\/div>

The unique design of the shockless GEN4 Ionizing Bar offers improved performance and reliability in industrial applications. Life expectancy has been extended by insertion molding the stainless steel ion emitters into a durable plastic. There are no openings or grooves to accumulate dirt that could cause shorting or arcing. A 5kV power source provides high performance, eliminating frequent burnouts commonly associated with traditional 7kV bars.<\/p>\n

The GEN4 Ionizing Bar includes a five foot shielded cable with ground. A mounting flange is provided for easy installation and all components are fully assembled. Standard lengths up to 108″ (2743mm) are available from stock and special lengths up to 119″ (3.02m) are available by special order. Model 7960 or 7961 GEN4 Power Supply (5kV) is required for bar operation.<\/p>\n

The ability to eliminate static can be greatly improved when attaching the Super Air Knife to the GEN4 Ionizing Bar (see – Super Ion Air Knife<\/a> Enhanced Performance and Reliability). The GEN4 Super Ion Air Knife propels the static neutralizing ions over a larger area which is ideal for high speed, high charge applications. Air delivery can also remove dust and clean the product surface.<\/p>\n<\/div>

How the GEN4\u2122 Ionizing Bar Works<\/h3><\/div>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>
\"Ionizing<\/a><\/span><\/div>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>

The electromagnetically shielded power cable (1) carries the 5kVrms power supply output to each capacitively coupled stainless steel emitter point (2) of the GEN4 Ionizing Bar. An integrated ground wire (3) within the power cable creates a discharge path from the emitter points to the bar channel (4). The discharge at each emitter charges the molecules of the gases of the surrounding room air, resulting in a shower of ions that are positively and negatively charged (5).<\/p>\n<\/div>
