EXAIR Static Eliminators – Anti-Static Solutions for Industrial Use

EXAIR Static Eliminators & Anti-Static Devices

Our various static eliminators (also known as air ionizers or ionisers) are the go to solution for managing electrostatic charging in industrial environments. Here’s how they work; a small amount of compressed air is used to entrain a larger volume of ambient air, creating a gentle but effective airflow. This air is then ionized at the emission points and directed onto the charged surface. The result is the rapid neutralization of both positively and negatively charged surfaces, from distances of up to 6 meters. The static is discharged in less than 0.5 seconds, which is quick, efficient and quiet.

Standards for static elimination and protection equipment

The 4th generation antistatic products (GEN4) have undergone independent laboratory testing to certify that they meet the stringent US, European Union and Canadian safety and environmental standards necessary to earn the well-known directives and UL mark. They are also RoHS compliant.

Compared to previous discharge units, our the 4th generation antistatic products (GEN4) static eliminators have improved performance. They are ideal for ionising hard-to-reach or hidden surfaces, fast-moving products or even surfaces with extremely high charge.

Why Static Elimination Matters

Electrostatic charges can cause a range of issues in manufacturing and production lines, from attracting dust and debris to interfering with sensitive equipment, damaging components or even posing a risk to operator safety. Static can be especially problematic on fast-moving materials, plastic films, printed surfaces and hard to reach areas.

Our EXAIR GEN4 static eliminators are designed specifically to address these challenges. They help you maintain consistent product quality, prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD), and create a safer, more stable working environment.

Some of the key benefits:

  • Neutralizes static in <0.5 seconds
  • Works from distances up to 6 meters
  • Safe, quiet and efficient operation
  • Independently certified to global standards
  • Improved performance on high-speed or obstructed surfaces
  • Low maintenance – just occasional cleaning of the emission tips

GEN4 Static Eliminators, Certified Performance

The 4th generation antistatic products have been independently tested to meet stringent US, European and Canadian safety and environmental standards. Each product carries the well known UL mark and is RoHS compliant. Compared to earlier models, GEN4 products offer improved performance, energy efficiency and quieter operation.

These ionizers are ideal for:

  • High speed production lines
  • Hidden or obstructed surfaces
  • Areas with extremely high electrostatic charge

With the GEN4 technology, you’ll enjoy better static control with less noise and lower air consumption.

Pair with a Static Meter for Greater Accuracy

For even more effective control, we recommend pairing your static eliminator with a static meter. A static meter helps detect and measure surface charges, allowing you to assess problem areas and verify the performance of your static elimination setup. This is especially useful when working with sensitive materials or in environments where precise static control is essential.

Anywhere static is present (and causing problems) our ionizers can help restore balance and efficiency. Our static eliminators are used in a wide range of industrial applications, including:

  • Packaging lines
  • Printing and converting
  • Electronics assembly
  • Plastics and injection molding
  • Textile manufacturing

Frequently Asked Questions

Not necessarily, but we do recommend it and especially if you're working in an environment where precise static control is critical. A static meter helps you measure the charge before and after using the eliminator, so you can confirm it’s doing its job. It's also useful for identifying hotspots and testing system performance over time.

Yes, definitely as the ionized air stream is gentle and non-contact, which means it won’t damage delicate materials like films, electronic components or printed surfaces. Many of our customers in electronics, packaging and printing industries use these devices specifically for that reason.

Many of our models are designed for fixed installation and can be easily incorporated into production lines or automated setups. They’re compact, reliable and can be mounted to cover specific areas, whether that’s over a conveyor, near a molding machine or inside an enclosure.
