IQ Power HL Power Supply 5201258 Rev. C
2. DESCRIPTION
WARNING
–
Fire Hazard
IQ Power HL Power Supply for use in Non-Hazardous (Unclassified)
locations only.
AVERTISSEMENT – Risque d’incendie
IQ Power HL est pour une utilisation dans les endroits non dangereux (non
classifiés) seulement.
Simco-Ion’s IQ Power HL Power Supply provides microprocessor controlled high
voltage DC output to the static bar. High voltage causes ionizing pins on the static
bar to generate positive and negative ions. The electric field from the static charge
on material being processed will attract opposite polarity ions from the static bar
causing the material to be neutralized. Excess ions will either recombine in air or
dissipate to ground.
The IQ Power HL Power Supply only supports operation of speed and hybrid type
static bars.
The IQ Power HL static bar is tailored to the application. Speed bars are optimized
to operate on high speed webs at distances of 50 to 230 millimeters [2 to 9 inches].
Hybrid bars operate at distances of 150 to 460 millimeters [6 to 18 inches] on webs
where the web path is somewhat variable.
The IQ Power HL static bar has a plug-in style high voltage connector. The
connector features a pin that sets the IQ Power HL Power Supply for the type IQ
Power HL bar installed and optimizes the power supply output for that type of bar.
The Control Station is a convenient hub that provides power and communication
for IQ Power or IQ Easy devices. Two-way digital communication provided by the
Control Station enables monitoring and logging of system performance, and allows
access to enhanced features in the static neutralization system. These enhanced
features include; manual control of ionization balance, Auto-Tune automatic
control of ionization balance and CLFB (Closed-Loop Feedback) providing the
ultimate in static eliminator control (use of the IQ Power HL Sensor is required).
All IQ Power optional modules use 8-conductor modular cable and RJ-45 connectors
for connection to the IQ Power system. They are typically supplied with 7 foot cable
assemblies but longer lengths are available by calling Simco-Ion customer service
(800) 203-3419 (refer to Section 8, Parts and Accessories).
