The EXAIR Varistat Benchtop Ionizer is a fan-driven static eliminator designed to neutralize static charges on surfaces in demanding industrial settings where static can become troublesome. With the help of ionizing technology, the Varistat supplies a constant stream of ion-balancing airflow to keep products static-free and particulate-free with hands-free operation and without the need of compressed air. Manually adjustable, the Varistat provides full coverage static elimination for workbenches, part assembly, web cleaning and more.
The Varistat can be easily mounted on equipment or placed on workbenches to assist with consistent static neutralization. Capable of reducing 1000 volts to 100 in .8 seconds, the Varistat Ionizer removes surface static at a distance with incredible efficiency. The Varistat is engineered to fit various industrial applications and unique processes by offering customizable options such as an adjustable stand for mounting, selectable voltage, variable fan speed and adjustable polarity.

How the Varistat Benchtop Ionizer Works |
|
 |
|
After connecting the 115V or 230V power cable, plug into outlet (1) and check to make sure the voltage selector switch (2) is set correctly; then activate power switch to activate static eliminating ions and airflow (3). A green light will indicate that power is turned on, improper functionality is indicated by a flashing red LED (4). Adjust fan speed with dial (5), and polarity with “+†and “-†buttons located on top (6). Adjust angle and height with knobs located on the side (7). Mounting bracket is included for hands-free operation (8). |
