END OF YEAR REVIEW
Fraser launches neweliminators
FraserAnti-Static Techniques last year launched two newproducts designed to eliminate static electricity, even at high speeds and in sensitive applications. The first one, Jupiter, is an advanced long-range static control systemwhich uses intelligent ionisation technology to provide unrivalled static neutralisation performance at distances up to 1.5m. It also uses advanced pulsed DC technology. The second launchwas the 2050 IonisedAir Blower.With integrated power unit and controls, the 2050was designed tomeet the demanding requirements in the electronics,medical, pharmaceutical and RFID industries. An integrated power supply generates high voltage that is transmitted to emitters around the axial fan to create ionised air. The airflowfromthe fan then transports the ionised air to the object to be neutralised. For more information call 01398 331114 or email sales@fraser-
