The working principle of static eliminator

In industrial production, there are charges of different properties on the surface of objects due to friction, peeling, extrusion, induction, etc. between objects. When this charge accumulation reaches a certain level, electrostatic adsorption and discharge will occur. The accumulation and discharge of static charges can have a great impact and damage on industrial production. Such as object adhesion, repulsion, electrostatic breakdown, human body electric shock, explosion, etc.

The function of the static eliminator is to use air ionization to generate a large amount of positive and negative charges and use a fan to blow the positive and negative charges out. A stream of positive and negative charges is formed to neutralize the charge on the surface of the object. When the surface of the object is negatively charged, it will attract the positive charge in the airflow, and when the surface of the object is positively charged, it will attract the negative charge in the current, so that the static electricity on the surface of the object is neutralized. The purpose of eliminating static electricity.


What are the best static eliminators available?

Before learning about static eliminators, first, classify static eliminators. Static eliminators include active static eliminators (requires power), passive static eliminators (no electricity required).

The principle of active static eliminator: the ionized air generates a large amount of positive and negative charges, forming an airflow of positive and negative charges, and neutralizing the charges on the surface of the object. When the surface of the object is negatively charged, it will attract the positive charge in the airflow, and when the surface of the object is positively charged, it will attract the negative charge in the current, so that the static electricity on the surface of the object is neutralized. The purpose of eliminating static electricity.

Common active static eliminator: static eliminator rod, ion fan, ion fan, ion wind rod

The principle of passive static eliminator: by inducing the electrostatic field, the static grounding conducts the static electricity away.

Common passive static eliminators: copper wire in addition to static electricity, rope in addition to static electricity, brushes in addition to static electricity, etc.
