YUCHENGTECH Ionizing Air Blower Static Elimination Fan Ionized Air Blower Desktop Anti-Static Ion Blower Static Eliminator Air flow Adjustable for Static Removal and Dust Removal

Used to remove static charge from plastic sheeting. Worked perfectly out of the box, all charge was removed within a few seconds (tested with styrofoam shavings). Great little unit especially for the price.

I received this item through the Amazon Vine programme. This is a very well made Ionizing fan/blower, I was surprised by how strong it is. The cast metal case is very robust as is the mounting bracket. Heavy gauge mains cable is fitted along with a decent quality, fused, UK plug. The machine arrived well packaged and protected. I tested the noise output while the machine was running at max output and got a reading of 60-65db @ 36" from the front of the device: not excessive but noticeable particularly if you are running other machinery and concerned about the total noise in your working environment. I do not have the equipment to test the claimed ionizing output, but have no reason to doubt the figures as I found it to be effective in removing electrostatic cling on Nylon/Polyester filaments. It is worth considering that, as a fan/blower it does of course produce increased air currents over the workspace which in themselves may be disruptive to fine assembly/work operations. The fan (airflow) output is adjustable but the ratio of positive to negative ions is not. The device does not have to be opened to clean the ion needle, this can be done by turning a cleaning knob on the outside of the case. Currently retailing at £98.31 I think it is very reasonably priced, particularly if you are looking for something with a relatively small "footprint". 5 stars.

Does what it says it does

Made in China and supplied under numerous different brand names, this appears to be a computer cooling fan with an ionizer using copper points. At the price, I'd have expected carbon fibre bundles for superior ionisation. That said, it was hard to tell if this was more than a fan, as I didn't detect any whiff of ozone from the ionisation. Style has certainly given way to function, as this is a has a very industrial look to it. £90 quid seems a lot for something which you can't see working but I guess if you're buying for a business handling electronic components, paper etc. it's worth a punt.

I bought this for my work dealing with a project involving extremely static polymer films. This little gadget made the whole handling of polymer sheets so much easier. Just a quick blow on the surface and I was able to move the letter sized sheets without sticking to my desk or other surfaces.
