Simco-Ion 91-XC2-US-05 AEROSTAT XC2 Extended Coverage Area Ionizing Blower
**Extended Lead-Times May Apply - Up to 7 Weeks**
Simco-Ion 91-XC2-US-05 AEROSTAT XC2 Extended Coverage Area Ionizing Blower
Part Number: 91-XC2-US-05 (Aerostat XC2 Ionizing Blower, US 120V/60Hz). Also available as 91-XC2-xx-05A with audible alarm, 91-XC2-xx-05H with heater, and 91-XC2-xx-05HA with heater and audible alarm.
Simco-Ion’s new Aerostat XC2 provides complete wide area ionization protection. As with its predecessor, the Aerostat XC Ionizing Blower, the Aerostat XC2 is designed and built for reliable, long-term static control for a variety of electronic, semiconductor, flat-panel display, and medical assembly applications. The XC2 offers outstanding coverage for larger areas with <12 second discharge times at 6 feet (1.8m) distance from the face of the blower. The weight-saving design allows the Aerostat XC2 to be mounted above the work surface, which is especially effective for flat panel display module assembly.
The Aerostat XC2 offers inherent balance to 0 ±10V for protection of sensitive electronic components. The XC2 is loaded with usability features including a built-in emitter point cleaner, adjustable locking stand, fan speed control, optional airflow heater, and separate balance and fan stall alarm LEDs with an optional audible alarm. These features, plus its stylish design, make the Aerostat XC2 the ideal extended coverage ionization blower for assembly, test, and packaging areas.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the part number for the Aerostat XC2?
The US 120V/60Hz model is part number 91-XC2-US-05. Variants include 91-XC2-xx-05A with audible alarm, 91-XC2-xx-05H with heater, and 91-XC2-xx-05HA with both, plus EU, UK, CN, and JP power options.
What is the Aerostat XC2 used for?
It provides complete wide area ionization protection for electronics assembly, life sciences, back-end semiconductor processing, and flat-panel display applications, neutralizing static charge from overhead and other large target areas.
How fast does it discharge charge?
Discharge time is 1.0 second at 12” (30.5 cm), from 1000V to 100V with the fan on high, tested in accordance with ANSI/ESD STM3.1-2015. The XC2 offers outstanding coverage for larger areas with <12 second discharge times at 6 feet (1.8m) from the face of the blower.
What area does it cover?
Coverage area is 36”W x 72”L (91.4 x 182.9 cm), with an effective coverage area up to 72” from the blower face.
How does it stay balanced over time?
The XC2 uses ±10V self-balancing “Micropulse” technology, which reduces ion recombination at the emitter for long-term peak performance and balance stability between cleanings.
What monitoring and alarm features does it have?
The XC2 has local alarm LEDs for faults and fan stall, a Facility Monitoring System (FMS) connection, and an optional audible alarm, so ionization status can be monitored locally and at a remote location.
