Four outlet power supply for static eliminators
September 2006
Electrical Power & Protection
Exair's new Four Outlet Power Supply features four 5 kV output connectors that can energise up to four static eliminators. Applications using up to four ion air guns, ion air knives, ion air cannons or just air jets can be connected to the one power supply. This eliminates the additional cost of purchasing two ordinary power supplies, each having only two high voltage connectors.
The power supply is housed in a durable metal enclosure that is suitable for rugged, industrial environments. Static eliminators having a bayonet-style connector can be inserted into the power supply where the electrical connection is made deep inside to prevent a shock hazard. The output current is limited to 5 mA while a unique short circuit protection (no fuse or mechanical reset) takes the voltage to zero should a short occur in the static eliminator.
The Four Output Power Supply requires an input of 1154 V a.c., 50/60 Hz. A second version for 230 V a.c. is also available. A 2 m power cord and lighted power switch are included. It is UL listed to US and Canadian safety standards, and is CE and RoHS- compliant.
