SCS 980 Ionized Air Gun
The SCS 980 Ionized Air Gun provides efficient static charge neutralization by effectively removing particle contamination even on some of the most static-sensitive products. The SCS 980 Ionized Air Gun includes a North American power adapter. The SCS 980E Ionized Air Gun does not include a power adapter, and it must be purchased separately. All references to model 980 throughout this user’s guide pertain to both models unless otherwise noted. The proprietary technology provides constantly balanced ionization for consistent control of surface charges. The Ionized Air Gun virtually never needs adjustment and requires very little maintenance.
Compact and lightweight, the console for the Ionized Air Gun can be mounted almost anywhere on the workstation for easy access. It connects to a supply of clean, dry air or nitrogen, and an internal disposable filter collects particles from the gas supply. The electrical feed from the console to the Ionized Air Gun is incorporated into the light, flexible air hose. The Ionized Air Gun itself is very lightweight and ergonomically designed for long-term user comfort and efficient operation. The console, Ionized Air Gun, and air hose are all designed to be static-dissipative and ESD-safe.
The Ionized Air Gun helps reduce a static charge of +/- 1000V to +/- 100V in less than 1 second at a distance of 6 inches (15 cm) and 30 psi (2 bars) inlet pressure when tested in accordance with the ESD Association ionization standard ANSI/ESD-S3.1. Balance (offset voltage) is within +/- 30V at a distance of 6 inches (15 cm).
