Simco-Ion : Ionisation / Static Charge Elimination

PMT (GB) Limited offers a range of Simco-Ion ionization and process monitoring products for a variety of applications, including workbench, inline ionization and cleanroom ESD control. Our aim is to help you reduce packaging and operational costs. These solutions help control ESD and static build-up to improve operations and increase product quality. PMT (GB) Ltd offers a comprehensive range of ionization solutions for cleanroom environments. Proper grounding can effectively reduce charges on conductors, but only ionization can eliminate harmful charges on isolated conductors and insulated materials such as plastics.

Our ESD instruments can be used in a wide variety of industries, including, but not limited to:

  • Pharmaceutical
  • Semiconductor
  • Medical Devices
  • Hospitals
  • Automotive
  • Aerospace
  • Food / Cosmetics / beverage

FAQ

Ionizers are essential tools for controlling electrostatic charge and improving product quality. Here you will find answers to frequently asked questions about how ionizers work, how to use them and how to maintain them. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

  • How does an ioniser work?

    An ioniser produces positively and negatively charged ions that are released into the environment. These ions neutralise electrostatic charges on surfaces or in the air by balancing the charge.

  • What questions should I ask myself to choose the right ioniser for my workplace?

    1.In which environment is the ionizer needed? 
    2.Can the ionizer be installed directly above the area to be ionised?
    3.At what distance can/should the ionizer be installed?
    4.Is a quasi-laminar airflow guaranteed?
    5.How fast should the discharge take place?  (3-5 sec or 20-30 sec)
    6.Are there metallic objects ‘in the way’?
    7.How large is the area to be ionised?
    8.Are the products very light?
    9.Important conditions, e.g. occupational safety, explosion protection

  • How do I choose the right ioniser for my application?

    Choosing the ideal ionizer depends on a number of factors, such as the size of the area, the type of materials and the specific requirements of your application. Our experts will be happy to advise you on the device best suited to your needs.
