The Fraser Ioniser Cleaning Kit consists of a heavy duty brush and a special cleaning fluid that will keep static control equipment performing to the highest level.

Static control products naturally become dirty because:

• the electric field attracts airborne dust;
• the high voltage “carbonises” the air putting a conductive black layer onto the device; and
• in some applications, such as coating and printing, the contamination may be from the ink or coating.  Other applications, such as hot processing of plastics, produce gases which can cover the electrode with a conductive coating.

By diverting the energy to ground, the contamination reduces the energy available for ionisation in the emitter.  In extreme cases, the contamination may overload the equipment and cause it to shut down.

It is important to clean all static control equipment regularly to maintain its efficiency and extend its working life.  The Fraser Ioniser Cleaning Kit (Part No. 81220) is suitable for use with all static neutralisation and generation electrodes, including bars, blowers, guns, nozzles and air knives.
