AirForce Ionizing Blow-off Gun Model 6115 by ION SYSTEMS - MPS Featured Product

From ION SYSTEMS:


The AirForce Ionizing Blow-off Gun was designed with the operator in mind. The AirForce’s lightweight, flexible air hose—just 3/8” in diameter—moves with the operator and makes work easier. No high voltage cable means improved operator safety. The gun’s ergonomic design—with a light touch trigger and easy-view LED—minimizes fatigue and eliminates wrist hyperextension. The compact console can be mounted anywhere, so it doesn’t take up valuable workspace but is still easily accessible. To make the work environment more pleasant, the AirForce also features low audible noise.


Strong blow-off power makes the AirForce effective in removing particle contamination. Steadystate DC ion emission provides efficient ionization with an average discharge time of less than 1.0 second. Results are even better because ION Systems patented IsoStat technology1 means static charge is controlled with constantly balanced ionization.

From Midwest Production Supply:

Ionizing Air Guns can be a great tool for cleaning electronic components, glass, medical devices, molded plastic parts, polycarbonates, various types of sheeting and many other products. Often, these products will hold a static charge which will attract unwanted fibers and particles like a magnet, especially in low humidity conditions. An Ionizing Air Gun uses Clean Dry Air or Nitrogen and then introduces positive & negative ions to the flow. The ions rapidly neutralize any static charge that is present while the CDA or Nitrogen helps to remove and blow off particles from many types of surfaces. Air alone is often times not enough to clean these products as the static charges present will still hold particles in place. The Ions are the key as they neutralize the static charge (and particles) which in turn allows the foreign material to dislodge.

From Midwest Production Supply:

Are the Wipers your company is using leaving particles or fibers behind? If so, you may want to consider using a Clean Room Laundered Sealed Edge Polyester Knit Wiper like the Choice 900 from Berkshire. Unlike Non-Woven Wipers, Sealed Edge Polyester Knit Wipers are much more durable and are far cleaner. Knit Polyester is a woven material(like many fabrics) and are made up of continuous fibers. Non-Woven Wipers are typically made from taking short fibers and bonding them together using a binder or sealing them together ultrasonically. Because the fibers used in Non-Wovens are not continuous, they can shed and potentially cause contamination. For critical cleaning applications, the best choice is often a Clean Room Laundered Sealed Edge Polyester Knit Wiper..

• Integrated heater for warm air flow if desired

From Midwest Production Supply:

The Aerostat PC Ionizer is very efficient at neutralizing static charges for a variety of applications including Benchtop Electronic Assembly, Medical Device Manufacturing, Lens and Glass Manufacturing, Printing and many others. Although most manufacturer’s understand that static charges can wreak havoc on sensitive electronic devices, they often times don’t think about ESA. ESA stands for Electro Static Attraction and can also be a major manufacturing issue. Insulators like plastic parts used to make medical products, for example, almost always hold a static charge. The manufacturer may not be concerned about static in this instance as there are no electronic components to their parts, however, what they sometimes fail to realize is that static will attract particles and can also cause parts to stick together. For many, particles are a big issue and can cause failures as many of these types of products are made in Clean areas. Ionization is also a very effective way of eliminating static charges on insulators resulting in cleaner parts and improved yield. To find out more about Simco's Aerostat and other ionizing air blowers, visit Midwest Production Supply today.
