You will also fall into the misunderstanding of ion fan selection
Wouldn’t you also fall into the misunderstanding of ion fan selection? As there are more and more manufacturers of ion fans, imported and local, high-end and low-end, intelligent and manual, DC and AC, etc. Therefore, many people will enter a misunderstanding in the selection of ion fans. When the factory purchases ion fans, the following four points can be used as a reference to prevent the purchase of unsuitable ion fans from being fooled.
Misunderstanding 1: The ion fan is a cutting-edge high-voltage discharge module, which is the same as produced by any manufacturer.
Many factories may make this mistake in purchasing. Of course, this is not to be blamed. After all, the ion fan is only a negligible amount in some factories, and the purchasing cost is negligible. In addition, the buyer is not a technician. Fans are the same, there is no difference. In fact, it is not. Just like some people think that a mobile phone assembly factory can make a finished machine only by buying all the accessories such as screen, soft board, camera, casing, battery, antenna, etc., there are still many doorways for ion fans. There is still a big difference between brands, such as how much high voltage is required to discharge the tip, how much positive and negative ions are required to ensure that they will not be reversely charged, whether the ion balance can be controlled within ±10V, etc., not all manufacturers can do it These.
Misunderstanding 2: The ion blower is a consumable material. If you want to replace it anyway, just buy the cheap one.
Some factories directly position the ion fan as an anti-static consumable, and replace it every six months or a year. At the same time, the purchase cost is controlled very low. The cheaper it is, the more you like it. Strictly speaking, the ion fan cannot be counted as a consumable, it is a small supporting equipment. Its service life is determined by the on-site environment and frequency of use and the quality of the ion fan. The environment and frequency cannot be changed, and the quality of the ion fan is very important. . The core components of the ion fan are steel needles, tungsten needles, and silicon needles. The cost of steel needles is the lowest for a few cents, followed by tungsten alloy needles. It is a high-voltage module, and the cost of an ordinary transformer is only ten yuan. There is also a single piezoelectric ceramic iron oxide, which has good high-voltage stability and a cost ranging from tens to hundreds of yuan. Now upgrading to a dual piezoelectric ceramic has better performance, representing The manufacturers are HZR from the mainland and SSD from Japan. The quality is good, the service life will be long, and of course the price will be higher.
Misunderstanding 3: The ion fan does not need maintenance and testing, just install it and make it look like it.
This is a common problem of many domestic enterprises. It is extremely irresponsible to think that the ion fan is only used in the audit of its customers, regardless of its quality, or even a fan that only blows air. The purpose of the ion blower is to prevent the occurrence of electrostatic discharge. Although the impact of static electricity on the product is not visible to the naked eye, it does not necessarily have an impact, so it is easy to ignore, but once ESD occurs, the defective rate of the product will increase or even exist. Higher quality hidden dangers, this is not worth the loss. In addition, the ion fan needs regular maintenance, because the discharge time of the tip of the ionization equipment is long, and oxidation and adsorption of dust will occur, the ion release will be weakened, and the effect of eliminating static electricity will be greatly reduced. However, there are maintenance-free ion fans on the market. You can freely set the cleaning time. The ion fan generally needs to be checked monthly or quarterly, depending on the factory situation, so as to ensure the effect of use.
Misunderstanding 4: Only imported ion fans can meet the high requirements for static elimination, and domestic products are low-end products.
Perhaps the current industrial level in China has not reached the same level as that of the United States, Japan and South Korea. After all, we are still decades behind in starting, but some brands of ion fans can still compete with imported ones, but most domestic manufacturers still They all stay at the low-end machine level. Japan's Keyence should be the leader in this industry, followed by SMICO, SSD and Zencai. Domestic Kashid and Tianhua are cost-effective compared to imports, and there are some cheap models.
In addition to price and quality, the ion fan should also pay attention to after-sales service. Imported products may be of good quality, but the supporting services may not be able to keep up. For equipment like this, the manufacturer needs to arrange at least two on-site inspections by technicians every year. Because of the abnormality of the ion fan, the production line is out of operation. It will cause great waste of production and reduced output. Therefore, the ion fan must be carefully considered when choosing, identify the misunderstandings and find the best cooperative brand.
