Simco-Ion 4011005 AEROSTAT FPD Wide Performance Ionizing Blower
Part Numbers: 4011005 (Aerostat FPD 2-Fan Ionizer, 120/230V, 50/60Hz, North America), 4011007 (3-Fan), and 4011009 (4-Fan). The Aerostat FPD ionization blower comes in either 2-fan, 3-fan, or 4-fan chassis lengths, each designed for optimal coverage area and a variety of applications.
The Aerostat FPD series of products has been designed to control electrostatic charges in flat panel assembly and electronics manufacturing applications requiring stable operation with exceptionally fast discharge time performance. The FPD ionizing blowers are built for reliability and simplicity.
Aerostat FPD utilizes reliable, low maintenance AC corona technology with high flow rate fans to provide fast static discharge performance. The inherent stability of the Aerostat FPD reduces maintenance frequency and a built-in emitter cleaner reduces maintenance time. Our unique geometry and airflow control provides consistent performance, meeting the demands of product assembly operations.
The Aerostat FPD’s self-monitoring feature assures the user of controlled, consistent ion output. A light indicates both that power is applied to the unit and that ions are being produced. Performance is enhanced by the use of Simco-Ion’s industry-leading and highly reliable AC technology.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the part numbers for the Aerostat FPD?
The North America models are 4011005 (2-Fan), 4011007 (3-Fan), and 4011009 (4-Fan). CE Europe, United Kingdom, and China power variants are also available, such as 4011279 and 4011281.
What is the Aerostat FPD used for?
It controls electrostatic charges in flat panel assembly and electronics manufacturing applications, blowing ionized air down “overhead” on the product at a workstation or “behind” a conveyor in product assembly operations.
How fast does it discharge charge?
Discharge time is 1.0 second at 12” (30.5 cm) from the center blower position, from 1000V to 100V with the fan on high, tested in accordance with ANSI/ESD STM3.1-2015.
What coverage area does each chassis length provide?
For overhead applications: 2-fan covers 2’W x 2’L, 3-fan covers 2’W x 3’L, and 4-fan covers 2’W x 4’L. For benchtop applications: 2-fan covers 2’W x 5’L, 3-fan covers 3’W x 5’L, and 4-fan covers 4’W x 5’L.
How does it stay balanced and low maintenance?
The FPD uses inherently balanced AC corona technology (0 ±10V) with a built-in emitter point cleaner, so the inherent stability reduces maintenance frequency and the emitter cleaner reduces maintenance time.
How do I know it is producing ions?
The self-monitoring ionization indicator light confirms both that power is applied to the unit and that ions are being produced, assuring controlled, consistent ion output.
