Settings - Simco-Ion scorpION3 User Manual

3.1 Settings

Measures of system performance vary according to environmental
factors including airflow velocity, air turbulence, presence of large
grounded objects, and the distance from the emitter to the
instrument.
Operating parameters can be adjusted to compensate for much of
the variation common to the workspace or mini-environment.
Increasing output current and/or lengthening the pulse time can
reduce discharge times but will also affect the relative level of space
charge and emitter life expectancy. Increasing overlap can reduce
space charge in pulsed mode. Balance adjustment should be made
after setting output current, pulse time and overlap. Adjustments
must be saved using "save settings local to bar".
Setup Recommendations
Factory default settings for the scorpION3 are for a typical tool or
mini environment installation with the scorpION3 bar installed under
the filter fan / top of the unit and a target distance of approximately
600 mm (24").
The following tables contain recommendations for starting setup
points and supply typical performance from the scorpION3 bar.
Actual performance will vary depending on your particular operating
conditions, bar length, airflow, temperature, humidity, obstructions,
and other environmental influences specific to your application.
