To suppress external surface static during repair and construction operations

“Soapy burlap … without the mess!”

You can specify Ionix Aerosol as a static suppression procedure in keyhole squeezeoffs, keyhole vac and operations where soapy burlap doesn't work - Now you can have a static suppression procedure!

Ionix Aerosol Static Suppressor

Ionix Gas Technologies experience in static suppression in the natural gas industry has lead to the development of our Aerosol Static Suppressor for field repair operations when selective external static suppression is required.

 

EASY USE: Its convenient size makes it easy to use. No mess or mixing required. While soapy burlap materials are cheap, the labor time to wrap, wet, ground and unwrap the burlap is not. With the Ionix aerosol, workers just shake, point and spray. It eliminates the hand work of applying burlap or film. It will operate to temperatures as low as 20 degrees F.  If the can is allowed to freeze, simply thaw it out, shake and use. Freezing will not harm it.

 

HIGHLY EFFECTIVE: Ionix Aerosol Static Suppressor will immediately eliminate static on any surface which it isuse sprayed. It will continue to dissipate static after drying until it is washed off. Unlike soapy burlap which IS NOT a static suppressor but an electrical conductor, Ionix Aerosol does not have to be grounded or remain wet. It continues to dissipate static after it has dried and until it is washed off. Exceeds ATSM-D-257-80 standards for static dissipation.

 

WIDE RANGE OF USE: Its convenient size makes it easy to use in all repair operations. It can also reach inside pipe and onto pipe edges when the presence of static is especially dangerous. Ionix Aerosol makes safety procedures easy to follow - especially in cold weather.

 

WILL NOT EFFECT ELECTRO FUSING:  Ionix Aerosol Suppressor will not react with plastic or metals. It will not effect butt fusion or electro fusion as long as you prepare the surface according to the fusing manufacturer’s instructions. In any case, Ionix Aerosol Static Suppressor completely washes off any surface with water.

 

SAFE AND NON-HAZARDOUS: Unlike other anti stats, Ionix Aerosol Suppressor is specifically formulated for the hazardous conditions of gas distribution operations. It contains no flammable or hazardous chemicals or VOCs. It requires no special equipment or handling. Empty cans can be disposed in normal waste or recycled. Ionix is shipped using regular ground package services.

 

INEXPENSIVE TO USE AND DEPLOY: Ionix Aerosol eliminates the hand labor of using burlap. One can will spray 130 square feet of surface area - easily  sufficient to prep 13 repair operations. No capital investment is required. Simply put one can on each truck.

 

Reach Tool for IGT Aerosol Static Suppressor

SAFER: AGA recommends exterior static dissipation on plastic pipe prior to beginning repair operations. Wrapping soapy burlap requires workers to enter the excavation to apply burlap and be in dangerous proximity of possible static ignitions.

FASTER: Our IGT Aerosol Reach Tool allows you to spray our IGT Aerosol Static Suppressor onto surfaces without entering the excavation. Spray is actuated by nylon trigger cord. Tool uses any common pole extender (wood or plastic recommended).

EASIER: Our Aerosol can spray upside down and reach under the pipe from outside the pit. The black spray neck swivels 160 degrees from the yellow handle and the position is secured with a tongue and groove hinge and wing nut bolt fastener.
