While the Hyperion range includes an integrated power supply (IPS) to create the high voltage used for ionisation e.g. upto 7.5kV for 924IPS. The switch mode or power cable is still essential in order to provide the correct 24VDC power requirement to the Hyperion product.
The switch mode converts mains AC 110/240V 50/60Hz to 24VDC. Where the machine already has a 24VDC output the Hyperion product can be connected directly to the machine using a 4 pin M8 power cable.
The LED light indicator on the ionising bar will communicate the current operating status of the bar.
Green Constant – Normal operation
Green Flashing – Normal operation with BarMaster or SmartControl connected
Yellow – Standby
Yellow Flashing – Standby with BarMaster or SmartControl connected
Red – Fault detected
Red Flashing – Low ion current, cleaning required
Hyperion products are designed to work with 24VDC/ 15W, 48W or 96W Max (model dependent).
All Meech ionising bars are supplied with output parameters set to default settings which are optimised for general use to provide excellent ionisation performance.
However, if required, the output voltage, ion balance and frequency Hz rate can all be adjusted to suit your specific requirements, by using a connected Meech BarMaster or SmartControl Touch.
The bar monitoring function alerts operator to essential maintenance or worse – non-performance!
As an ioniser becomes dirty the performance and effective range is reduced. The reduced performance will affect product quality, customer satisfaction and profitability.
Hyperion bars include Ion Current Monitoring (ICM) technology, which is a monitoring function that ensures performance is maintained with local and remote alerts for when the bar needs cleaning or if there is a fault.
As an ioniser becomes dirty the performance and effective range is reduced. The reduced performance will affect product quality, customer satisfaction and profitability. With Meech Hyperion bars you are alerted to the need to clean the bar or if there is a fault.
Hyperion bars have an internal power supply and as such they will need a sufficient grounded 24V DC supply before they are used in operation. Most Meech Hyperion bars feature a grounding post for this purpose. The grounding post must be used in addition to using a grounded 24V DC supply.
The black cable is for ‘Fault output/standby input’ 0V/24V.
The white cable is “clean pin output’ 0V/24V.
Please refer to the relevant operating manual for more information.
The simple answer is the bar is too small for a secondary earthing stud. In operation the bar should be sufficiently grounded via a grounded 24V DC power supply to avoid damage to the bar or the power supply.
As a general rule the closer the Hyperion bar is to the material then the faster decay times you will achieve. A 924IPS bar mounted at 20mm will control static charges faster than the same bar mounted at 100mm.
Although mounting the bar too close to the material could lead to performance being hindered. The minimum distance a Hyperion bar can operate at is based on the distance between the pins, the higher the output voltage the greater the distance between the pins.
The ion reference is set by Meech during the initial calibration and should only be reset after making changes to either the balance, frequency or voltage parameters.
N.B. Make sure the bar is clean before resetting the ion reference.
