Ion bar adopts power frequency AC high voltage and
acts on the dedicated emitter electrode through
impedance coupling devices to ionize air molecules
to generate positive and negative high voltage ions
and transport them to the surface of the object to be
eliminated to neutralize positive and negative
electrostatic charges to achieve efficient and reliable
static elimination.

① P lace the ion bar in the working area where static electricity is to be eliminated. The AP-AB1602A ion bar should be about 100~ 300mm
away from the surface of discharged object and the installation angle should be perpendicular to the surface of the charged body.
②The surface of ion bar is not allowed to be covered by other objects.
③Two AP-AB1602A ion bars should be installed side by side with an interval of more than 300mm and should be staggered by more than 300mm
if installed face-to-face.
④ More than 200mm away from obstacles such as walls.
⑤ Ion bar should be at least 30mm away from the metal conductor and metal grounding body around the electrode. And the bar body must be
reliably connected to the AC equipment grounding wire and the grounding resistance should be less than 1 ohms.
Warning It is necessary to ensure that the air is dry and clean when using a compressed air source to enter the ion bar to avoid the moisture,
grease, and dust in the air source from contaminating electrode needles causing high-voltage insulation failure which affects normal use.
