Performax IQ Easy – Simco-ION’s most widely used Ionizing Bar
Static electricity can cause challenges such as dust attraction, electric shocks, product quality issues and materials sticking together during production. These problems are commonly encountered when processing plastic films, packaging materials, paper, labels and other web materials.
Performax IQ Easy from Simco-Ion is one of the most widely used ionizing bars for static elimination and is often the solution we recommend for new applications. It combines high neutralization efficiency, simple installation and robust construction, making it suitable for the vast majority of industrial environments.
The ionizing bar is also commonly referred to as an ionizer bar, anti static bar or static eliminator bar.
A safe choice for most production lines
Performax IQ Easy is designed to effectively neutralize static charges at working distances between 100 and 500 mm and is widely used in the plastics, packaging, printing, paper and converting industries.
For companies looking for a proven and reliable solution, Performax IQ Easy is often the natural choice. This is one of the reasons why it is among Simco-Ion’s most widely used ionizing bars worldwide. For high-speed applications, a dedicated Speed Version is available for production lines operating at speeds exceeding 500 m/min.
Intelligent Monitoring with the IQ Easy Platform
Performax IQ Easy can operate as a standalone ionizing bar but can also be integrated with Simco-Ion’s IQ Easy Platform.
When combined with Manager IQ Easy and Sensor IQ Easy, the system can automatically monitor and regulate static charge neutralization in real time. This provides improved process stability, performance documentation, data logging and Industry 4.0 integration.
Up to 30 ionizing and charging devices can be connected within a single IQ Easy network.
Built for Industrial Reliability
Performax IQ Easy features a glass-fibre reinforced profile that provides excellent mechanical strength and minimal deflection, even at lengths up to 5 metres. The integrated high-voltage power supply means the bar only requires a 24V DC input, making installation straightforward.
The built-in LED indicators provide clear status information:
Green: Operating normally
Orange: Warning
Red: Alarm
With an IP66 protection rating, Performax IQ Easy is well suited for industrial environments where reliability and easy cleaning are important requirements.
