1.0 Description
The 3M
Benchtop Air Ionizer 963E is a self-contained ionizing air blower
designed to remove static charges from non-conductive objects. The proprietary
circuitry contained in the blower generates balanced levels of positive and
negative ions. The Ionizer 963E is equipped with a two speed fan which allows
the user to select the amount of ionized air to be delivered to the target object.
In addition, the housing of the Ionizer 963E is constructed of a static-dissipative
plastic, which minimizes the amount of static charge that can build up on the
outside surface of the unit.
2.0 Performance
The Ionizer 963E reduces a static charge of ± 1000V to ± 100V in less than two
seconds (the discharge time) at a distance of one foot (30 cm) using the high fan
speed. Testing is performed in accordance with the ionization standard ANSI/
ESD S3.1.
3.0 Power Requirements
The Ionizer 963E requires 24VDC power, which is supplied through a Mini
DIN connector on the back of the unit. The Ionizer 963E is packaged with a
switching power supply, capable of converting 100V–240VAC, 50/60 Hz into
24VDC. The switching power supply uses a 6 ft. (1.8 m) cord to connect to the
ionizer, and has an IEC 320 input socket for incoming power. It comes with a
North American-style three-prong plug or Continental Europe (EURO) plug.
Two versions are available depending on the power cord plug (European or
North American). The Ionizer 963E should only be used with the included power
supply.
4.0 Installation
4.1 The Ionizer 963E mounts easily in a variety of positions using the
provided tilting bracket/stand. Place the unit on the work surface and
point it at the area or object to be neutralized. Alternatively, the mounting
bracket may be attached directly to or above the workstation, or on
another supporting structure. Please note that placement of the Ionizer
963E is important in determining its effectiveness. The distance from the
target object, and fan speed affect the ionizer’s performance. As distance
increases or fan speed is reduced, the discharge time will increase.
4.2 Connect the switching power supply to the Ionizer 963E using the Mini
DIN connector. Then, using the appropriate electrical power cord, connect
the switching power supply to an electrical outlet.
