Aerostat XC™ Ionizing Air Blower
SIMCO's Aerostat XC was designed for use with sensitive electronic components where
electrostatic discharge (ESD) is a problem. It can be applied in inspection, testing, and
assembly environments. The Aerostat XC can also be used where static electricity causes
problems such as attraction of dirt to product, misalignment of small parts due to electrostatic
"jumping", and undesirable adhesion of plastic films due to electrostatic charge.

Page 2: Section 1 Description
SECTION 1 Description The Aerostat XC ionized air blower produces an air flow that is rich in positive and negative ions. Directing the air flow on an object that has a static charge will neutralize the charge. If the object has a positive static charge, it will draw negative ions from the air flow. -

Page 5: Section 5 Installation
4.6 A factory-qualified service technician must perform component service and repairs. Please contact SIMCO Customer Service for information. SECTION 5 Installation Carefully remove the equipment from the carton and inspect contents. Empty the carton to insure that small parts are not discarded. If any damage has occurred during shipment, notify the local carrier at once. -
Page 6: Section 6 Operation
SECTION 6 Operation Activate the XC by setting the POWER switch to the ON position. The ionization indicator will illuminate to indicate the presence of ionized air. Set the air flow as desired by adjusting the FAN SPEED to low ( I ), medium ( I I ), or high ( I I I ). If warm air is desired for operator comfort, set the HEATER switch to the ON (I) position. - Page 7 SECTION 7 Maintenance The Aerostat XC has been designed with low maintenance in mind. The only regular maintenance suggested is emitter point cleaning, ion balance checking and ion output checking. Emitter point cleaning takes only seconds with SIMCO’s patented point cleaner.
- Page 8 Do not try to verify operation of the unit by drawing a spark from an ion emitter point. The design of the balancing circuit makes the “spark test” inconclusive. Sustained grounding of the ion emitters may damage the balancing circuit. 7.5 Ion Balance Check To test the unit for ion balance, the use of a charge plate monitor such as the SIMCO EA-4 is recommended.
