The SCS 770116 Ion Pro Benchtop Ionizer, 120VAC is used for neutralizing electrostatic charges on insulators and ungrounded conductors. The 770116’s fast discharge times (< 1.5 seconds at 12 inches) and ±3 volt offset voltage exceed the required limits of ANSI/ESD S20.20 and ESD TR53. The 770116 monitors both its offset voltage (balance) and discharge time. The 770116 will alarm should its offset voltage exceed the required limits defined by ANSI/ESD S20.20 or discharge time take longer than 4.5 seconds. The 770116 features a stainless-steel enclosure and multi-mount stand to minimize contamination and corrosion when used in clean or sensitive areas.

The 770116 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 770116 utilizes patented capacitance-based sampling from its internal sensor to continuously adjust the output, maintain its offset voltage, and minimize maintenance.
