  • Page 5: Introduction

    Introduction 30kV The Hyperion 971IPS-30 is a powerful, very high voltage pulsed DC ionising bar. It is used to control static electric charges in long to extra long-range applications (450- 1500mm). An integral 30kV pulsed DC power supply allows for easy installation on extrusion, converting and packaging machinery.
  • Page 6: Unpacking And Inspection

    Unpacking And Inspection Your Hyperion 971IPS-30 bar was carefully packed at the factory in a container designed to protect it from accidental damage. Nevertheless, we recommend careful examination of the carton and contents for any damage. If damage is evident, do not destroy the carton or packing material and immediately notify the carrier of a possible damage claim.
  • Page 7 The 971IPS-30 is powered by 24V DC via a 4-pin M8 Connector. Overall look The profile of the Hyperion 971IPS-30 bar is rounded, with minimal dirt traps, making it useful for cleanroom applications. The bar has good rigidity, allowing it to span wide...
  • Page 8 The emitter assembly is a one piece moulding with a 1mm diameter sharp titanium emitter pin. The use of titanium pins has a long history at Meech. Extremely hard wearing, the pins last for many years. The emitter features castellation that protects the operator from the point of the emitter.
  • Page 9 Air Outlets Air Outlets Whilst the long range performance of the Hyperion 971IPS-30 is excellent, some installations can require the use of air assistance to get full control of the static. This can either be by increased speeds of decay and/or by increased ionisation range. Air outlets either side of the emitter pin ensure that the integrated air-boost is extremely efficient.
  • Page 10 Clean Pin Alert LED and Fault Output Red flashing LED shows that bar is dirty and needs cleaning. Solid red illumination indicates a fault with the high voltage output. No light - OK „ Red flashing - Cleaning required „ Red constant - Fault „...
  • Page 11 Divider The divider used on all Meech pulsed DC bars is an essential feature that ensures good operation in dirty, factory environments. To maximise the interval between cleaning the 971IPS-30 bar features a divider to increase the surface tracking distance between the two rows of high voltage pins.

  • Page 13 Your Meech distributor will be able to help you with the best position for your installation. When installed at short range over a web or sheet, the bars must be positioned away from surfaces and rollers, as shown in the following diagrams.
  • Page 14 Failure to do so, will result in damage to the bar or the 24V supply and will void the warranty. A grounding post on the bar is provided for this purpose. Meech recommend that, for certainty, the bar is grounded using this post, in addition to using a grounded 24V DC supply.
  • Page 15 Connection using Meech 24V DC power supply Meech 24V DC supplies are grounded internally. It is important that the mains connection offers a ground connection. Two-pin outlets without a ground connection must not be used, unless the ground post on the 971IPS-30 bar is connected to ground.

  • Page 17: Operation

    Operation Having connected the M8 connector to the bar, power up the 24V supply and check for a blue constant LED on the bar. This indicates that the bar is running correctly with a good ion output. Caution Always turn off the 24V supply before connecting or disconnecting the M8 connector. Failure to do so could result in stored charges giving a small electric shock.
  • Page 18 Bags of replacement pins are available from Meech and are supplied with a special insertion tool. Important! 1. When replacing the emitters, only use the Meech Insertion Tool. No other tools should be used. 2. The emitters should only be tightened finger-tight. Over-tightening the emitters will...

    Status of the Warning LED (i.e. not lit, strobing red, flashing red, solid red) Please provide a photo of the equipment as it is installed A description and a photo or video of the problem you are experiencing The action you want Meech to take e.g. repair, replace, warranty etc.
  • Page 20 Solid Red indicates the ion level has dropped well below the alarm setting, prompting a serious fault warning. Check installation for metallic objects on the emitter pins. Should the solid red LED persist, connect your BarMaster and follow the Troubleshooting section or contact your local Meech distributor...
  • Page 21: Troubleshooting

    Troubleshooting Symptoms Action Warning LED is OFF when first powered Connect a bar master and ensure the on, after a short time, if a solid red LED ion level reads 99% shows. If the Ion level is 0-9% the bar is faulty. If the level is between 10-59% with a 60% alarm setting, return to the ‘clean bar’...
