Installation 

 

Carefully unpack your ionizing equipment. Report any shipping damage immediately to the freight company. 

 

Installation on Fan/Filter Units 

 

When  ordered  with  a  fan/filter  unit,  the  IonBar™  includes  a  set  of  stainless  steel  mounting  brackets  designed  to 

suspend the IonBar™ within the stream of HEPA-filtered air.  The airflow is required for the ions to reach the targeted 

surface before they are dispersed, allowing for efficient neutralization of static charges. 

 

Attach the mounting brackets according to the diagram below (one on each end), using the provided screws. 

 

 

 

With  the  mounting  brackets  installed,  place  the  IonBar™  in  the  ceiling  bay  where  the  fan/filter  unit  goes.    The 

mounting brackets will rest upon the frame of the ceiling bay; no other fasteners are required.  Simply lower the FFU 

into the ceiling bay and allow the weight of the FFU to hold the IonBar™ in position. 

 

Installation on Gloveboxes 

 

When ordered with a glovebox, the IonBar™ 

will be mounted to a stainless steel fan module 

that will aid in the dispersal of ions.  The 

IonBar™ assembly will be preinstalled in the 

chamber, in the orientation specified by the 

original order.   

 

Typically, the ions need to be directed 

downward towards the main work area.  

However, in some cases, the application 

requires the ions to be directed towards the 

user, eliminating static around the gloves.  The 

design of the mounting brackets allows for a 

wide range of mounting locations to best suit 

your application. 

 

Figure 1: 

Fasten the mounting bracket in the orientation shown above. 

Figure 2: 

The airflow from the fan module is required to 

disperse the generated ions throughout the glovebox
