Air Ionization: Issues and Answers

Program
ESD Certified Professional-Program Manager
 
Course Length
Half-day course
 
Description

The primary method of static charge control is direct connection to ground for conductors, static dissipative materials, and personnel. But a complete static control program must also deal with isolated conductors, insulating materials, and moving personnel that cannot be grounded. Air ionization can neutralize the charge on insulated and isolated objects. This seminar will

 
  • Examine problems caused by static charges
  • Review common methods for generation and control of static charge
  • Illustrate the importance of ionizers in a static control program through demonstrations
  • Explain the major types of ionizers and the varying environments
  • Discuss electrical and performance test methods
  • Demonstrate ionization measurements using the Ionization Standard
  • Present installation, safety, maintenance, and contamination issues
  • Analyze case histories of the use of ionizers in a variety of work environments
 

The Industry Council is an independent Institution focused on target levels of ESD component testing, applying the HBM, MM and CDM standards.
