1"A/C Flats
Compressed air operated Ionising Air Nozzle for removing 15
electrostatically attracted dust and for longer range static
neutralisation. They can be fitted one per cable or in series,

with two or more nozzles on an HT cable.

Operation

High voltage, low current electricity is provided by the 903
Power Unit. The electrode pin inside the Nozzle is
energised by the HT cable and emits this energy to

produce an intense field of ionised air inside the Nozzle.
As the compressed air blows the ionised field onto the
target material, ions of the opposite polarity neutralise the Technical and Construction
static charge, allowing the dust to be removed. Operating voltage : 4.5kV.
Max temperature : 85°C
Installation and Maintenance Construction : Black anodised aluminium with PTFE
insert.
Dimensions (mm) : See drawing.
There are two types of 940 Nozzle: a BLANK END Nozzle Weight : 400g
and a THROUGH TYPE Nozzle. The Through Type Nozzle Air consumption : 16 cfm at 100 psi.
allows the HT cable to pass through it, so that more than
one Nozzle can be installed in series onto the cable. The Applications
