Accessories
Power Supply - The Model 7960 selectable voltage Power Supply allows you to choose the input voltages of 115 VAC or 230 VAC. The modular cable with electromagnetic shielding protects sensitive electronics against electromagnetic interference while easing connections and routing. An integrated fuse on the primary protects against voltage spikes. Power Supplies are UL Component Recognized to U.S. and Canadian Standards, and are CE and RoHS compliant.
Shim Sets- The Ion Air Cannon is shipped with a .003" (0.08mm) thick stainless steel shim installed which works best for most applications. The Ion Air Cannon's velocity can be increased by replacing the factory supplied shims with thicker shims. Shim sets include (1) .006" (0.15mm) and (1) .009" (0.23mm) stainless steel shim.

How the Gen4 Ion Air Cannon Works |
|
 |
|
The Gen4 Ion Air Cannon incorporates a Super Air Amplifier* and ionizing collar, energized by a power supply. A small amount of compressed air is injected into the barrel of the cannon (1) inducing a high volume flow of surrounding air to flow through it (2). A replaceable emitter point at the discharge end of the cannon (3) ionizes the entire airstream. The result is a high volume, conical flow of ionized air (4) capable of eliminating static and cleaning at distances up to 15 feet (4.6m). Because more than 90% of the ionized air is induced, the Gen4 Ion Air Cannon produces maximum airflow at minimum air consumption.*patent #5402938 |
