Beluga-C1/C1.5 Training
Charge Corona Unit
Single-wire scorotron charge corona unit
Slide 149
It's a single wire, but it's looped so there are actually two wires crossing the
drum.
The main point to note about this unit is that the grid consists of 10 parallel wires
strung along the length of the charge corona unit.
The mesh-type grid system is a better method. However, it is not used in wide
format machines. In this type of machine, there may be excessive tension in the
grid, deforming the mesh. So the strung-wire system is used.
