Ion Pro™ Steady-State 2-Fan Overhead Ionizing Blower, 120V

SCS Ion Pro™ Overhead Ionizers are steady-state DC ionizers designed for use in ESD protected areas. The SCS 770112 two-fan ionizer has a 2' x 4' coverage area. The Ion Pro™ Overhead Ionizers' discharge times (< 3 seconds at 18") and low offset voltage (±10 volts) meet the required limits of ANSI/ ESD S20.20 < ±35 volts tested per ANSI/ESD STM3.1 and ESD TR53. Its emitters are made of pure tungsten and spaced further apart to minimize ion recombination, increase discharge efficiency and provide a broader coverage area. The fans have 3 speeds (high, medium, low) which produce consistent performance at all 3 settings. The Ion Pro™ Overhead Ionizers utilize an auto-feedback system that continuously optimizes its performance and automatically alarms and shuts down should its supply voltage drop.

The SCS Ion Pro™ Overhead Ionizers include 700 lumen light panels (cool white) that provide additional illumination to the work area and improve visibility and productivity. The 770112 features one light panel.

Necessary non-conductors in the environment cannot lose their electrostatic charge by attachment to ground. Ionization systems provide neutralization of charges on these necessary non-conductive items (circuit board materials and some device packages are examples of necessary non-conductors). Assessment of the ESD hazard created by electrostatic charges on the necessary nonconductors in the work place is required to ensure that appropriate actions are implemented, commensurate with risk to ESDS [ESD sensitive] items.

In order to mitigate field-induced CDM [Charged Device Model] damage, the ESD program shall include a plan for the handling of process-required insulators. If the field exceeds 2,000 volts/inch, steps shall be taken to either: A) Separate the insulator from the ESD-sensitive device by a distance of 30cm (12 inches); or B) Use ionization or other charge mitigating techniques to neutralize the charge.

The primary method of static charge control is direct connection to ground for conductors, static dissipative materials, and personnel. A complete static control program must also deal with isolated conductors that cannot be grounded, insulating materials (e.g., most common plastics), and moving personnel who cannot use wrist or heel straps or ESD control flooring and footwear. Air ionization is not a replacement for grounding methods. It is one component of a complete static control program. Ionizers are used when it is not possible to properly ground everything and as backup to other static control methods. In clean rooms, air ionization may be one of the few methods of static control available.
