DESCO 50642 – Mini Zero Volt Ionizer 2

• Improved fast discharge times (<3 seconds at 12″)
• Neutralizes both positive and negative electrostatic charges within the coverage area
• High/Low speed fan (33 to 51 CFM)
• Compact size (5.3″ high x 3.5″ wide x 1.7″ deep with stand) – use in confined spaces
• NIST calibrated with certificate included

The 50642 Mini Zero Volt Ionizer (ZVI) 2 is a compact benchtop ionizer used for neutralizing electrostatic charges on insulators and ungrounded conductors in a 6″ x 24″ coverage area. Its compact size (5.3″ high x 3.5″ wide x 1.7″ deep with stand) allows it to be used in confined spaces such as environmental chambers and automated equipment. It may also be used at standard ESD workstations.

Its fast discharge times (< 3 seconds at 12″) and ±5 Volt offset voltage exceed the required limits of ANSI/ESD S20.20 and ESD TR53. Steady-State DC emitters are spaced farther apart to prevent ion recombination, increase decay efficiency and provide a broader coverage area of ionization. The Mini ZVI 2’s two-speed fan (33 CFM to 51 CFM) produces consistent performance at both the low and high speeds. Low airflow may be used when working with small parts and components that may move with higher airflow. The Mini ZVI 2 features a stainless steel enclosure and multi-mount stand to minimize contamination and corrosion when used in clean or sensitive areas.

The Mini Zero Volt Ionizer 2 operates on Steady-State DC. Steady-State DC systems consist of separate negative and positive ion emitters connected by a pair of high-voltage cables to their respective high-voltage power supplies. DC power is constantly applied to the emitter points. The ionizer utilizes feedback from the internal sensor grill to continuously adjust the output to maintain balance.
