Simco-Ion 91-GUARDD-US01 Aerostat Guardian Overhead Ionizing Blower
Part Number: 91-GUARDD-US01 (Aerostat Guardian, 120V, 60Hz, with diffusers). Also available without diffusers as 91-GUARD-US01.
Simco-Ion’s Aerostat Guardian Overhead Ionizing Blower provides superior static charge decay over an entire work surface area. Equipped with task lighting and an integrated heater, the Guardian offers user-friendly operation while effectively protecting sensitive components from ESD damage.
Featuring Simco-Ion’s patented inherent balance and built-in emitter point cleaners, the Guardian is the lowest maintenance overhead ionizer available. Like Simco-Ion’s other Aerostat series ionizing air blowers, the Guardian operates on AC Technology to provide stable balance performance over long periods of use. It is available with airflow diffusers for superior static charge decay efficiency over a large work surface area. Without diffusers, the Guardian provides fast charge decay directly under the unit for targeted work surface coverage.
