Overhead Ionizers
Effective ESD protection for Insulators
Overhead ionizers neutralize electrostatic charges across entire work areas where grounding is insufficient. They are mounted above the workstation and reduce the risk of ESD with non-conductive materials. Regular checks of the ionization performance ensure ESD control in accordance with IEC 61340-5-1.

Overhead Ionizers: Large-Area ESD Protection for EPA Zones
In many EPA areas, grounding alone isn't enough to reliably protect components from electrostatic charging – especially when non-conductive materials such as plastic housings, packaging or screens are involved. This is exactly where overhead-type ionizers come in: mounted above the workstation, they neutralize static charge across a wide area without needing direct contact with the component.
How Overhead Ionizers Help in Everyday Use
Using multiple fans, overhead ionizers distribute ionized air evenly across the entire work area – depending on the model, the ionization field ranges from around 60 x 120 cm up to significantly larger areas with up to five fans. A low offset voltage ensures positive and negative ions are released in a balanced way, while features such as an alarm relay, RS485 interface or remote control make monitoring and control easier in day-to-day production. For cleanroom use, specially certified ionizers with the appropriate cleanroom class are also available.
The Right Overhead Accessories for Maintenance and Upgrades
To keep your overhead ionizer running reliably over the long term, it's worth checking out our overhead accessories: from replacement emitter tips and mounting brackets to calibration and testing accessories, you'll find everything needed to maintain your devices or upgrade them later – for example when adding extra fans or network connectivity.
Regular Testing as Part of EPA Compliance
As with all ionizers, overhead systems are only effective long-term if ionization performance is tested regularly, ensuring compliant ESD control under IEC 61340-5-1. We're happy to help you choose the right overhead ionizer for your ionization area and equip it with the right accessories.
