• Inspect the working environment and ensure it is clean and clear of hazards before removing equipment from packaging and positioning the system. • Visually check all equipment for damage. If damaged, contact your local Meech representative before continuing. • Ensure a full understanding of the symbols attached to the equipment before operating.
Section 2.0: Introduction The Hyperion 924IPSv2 is a compact pulsed DC ionising bar. It is used to control static electric charges in short range applications (20-150mm). An integral 7.5kV pulsed DC power supply allows for easy installation on printing, converting and packaging machinery. Requiring only a 24V DC supply, the 924IPSv2 removes the need to route high-voltage cabling through the machine.
10M lengths. Section 4.0: Unpacking And Inspection Your Hyperion 924IPSv2 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.
Section 5.0: Overview of 924IPSv2 - Features and Benefits 5.1: Low voltage wiring and Integrated Power Supply The 924IPSv2 is powered by 24V DC via a 4-pin M8 Connector. 5.2: Shockless Emitters The Titanium emitter pins on the 924IPSv2 are resistively coupled to the high voltage supply. This avoids sparking and operator shocks.

5.4: Clean Pin Alert and Fault LED The local LED illuminates constant green to indicate that the bar is on and working correctly. Red flashing LED shows that bar is dirty and needs cleaning. Solid red illumination indicates a fault with the high voltage output. Green constant –...

5.6: Divider The 924IPSv2 is designed to operate in dirty, factory environments. To maximise the interval between cleaning the bar features a divider to increase the surface tracking distance between the two rows of high voltage pins. It is important to clean this area during cleaning operations. 5.7: T-Slot The bar is mounted using the T-Slot at the rear of the bar.
Section 6.0: Mechanical Installation 6.1: Positioning The 924IPSv2 is a short to mid-range bar. Dependent on the application, the bar will be mounted between 20mm and 150mm from the target surface. The bar should be mounted securely, using all the M4 T-bolts provided with the bar. Correct positioning of the bar is vital for effective static control.

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. Your Meech distributor will be able to assist with questions regarding positioning of your equipment.
SUPPLY AND WILL VOID THE WARRANTY. Connection using a grounded 24V DC power supply. E.g. Meech part number A900IPS- SM2MS. Meech 24V DC supplies are grounded internally. They are supplied with a three wire IEC C5 cable. The ground connection must be correctly connected at the mains connection.

Fault alert Output 0V/24V 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. The switchmode power supply has a standard IEC C13 mains socket and a 2000mm HT cable to M8 Connector.
7.1: Dual Alarm Alert - Remote Monitoring Remote monitoring of the need to clean the bar is provided by the output signal on pin 2 (white) and fault alert is provided on pin 4 (black). The signal is 0V-24V suitable for direct connection to a PLC input.

7.1.1: Alarm Logic Level This is given by the configuration of the “Alarm True” setting using the BarMaster or SmartControl Touch. Alarm True = hi This means the logic on both the alarm pins is active high. Alarm True = lo This means the logic on both the alarm pins is active low.

7.1.2: Dual Alarm Output Drive Option There are 3 different output drive options which are designed to fulfill the vast majority of user requirements and to allow easy integration to PLC equipment. Option 1 - NPN Transistor-driven switch which presents a pull-up resistor to 24VDC on the alarm pin. This configuration is the same for both alarm pins (pin-2 and pin-4).
Page 17
Option 2 - PNP Transistor-driven switch which presents a pull-down resistor to GND on the alarm pin. This configuration is the same for both alarm pins (pin-2 and pin-4). 2.2kΩ Simplified Diagram of PNP output Logic Table Alarm True = Hi Start State Solid Green Flashing Red...

Option 3 - N+P This option presents the combination of both of the previous cases, NPN and PNP, however, the alarm lines are hard-driven to either 24VDC or GND. This configuration is the same for both alarm pins (pin-2 and pin-4). Simplified Diagram of N+P output Logic Table Alarm True = Hi...
Section 8.0: Operation Having connected the M8 connector to the bar, power up the 24V supply and check for a green 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.

Section 10.0: Maintenance 10.1: Cleaning Ionising bars become contaminated with usage. Dirt build-up on the body of the ioniser and, particularly on the pins, will cause a drop in performance. To get the best from your bar, it should be cleaned as part of regular machine maintenance. If regular cleaning is not carried out, the bar will detect the drop in performance and trigger the Clean Pin alert.
If the LED flashes red and the bar drops in performance, follow the cleaning procedure in the Maintenance section on page 21. If cleaning does not rectify the problem: Supplying the following information when you first contact Meech will ensure your claim is processed quickly: Connect to a BarMaster and turn on the equipment...
If the Ion level is well below the alarm level % the Ion output, it will shut down and a solid red LED will show. Should the solid red LED persist, connect your BarMaster and follow the Troubleshooting section or contact your local Meech distributor. Warning Do not reset the Ion Reference without cleaning the ionising bar first.
Check installation for metallic objects on the emitter pins. Should the solid red LED persist, contact your Meech distributor Section 14.0 : CE Approval A CE Declaration of Conformity for this product exists in respect of the Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive 2014/30/EU.
Failure to do so, will result in damage to the bar or the 24V supply and will void the warranty. Should any malfunction occur, please return the bar directly to Meech Static Eliminators Ltd. or your local Meech Distributor. All products returned to the factory MUST be accompanied by a return authorisation number and must be shipped prepaid.
