2. DESCRIPTION
Simco-Ion’s Conveyostat Systems are designed to provide in-line static
elimination for neutralizing static charges on materials in pneumatic conveying
systems. In-line ionization eliminates clogs caused by static charge buildup
within the conveying system. Once the charges are neutralized, products flow
freely and productivity increases.
Conveyostat’s are typically mounted at the input to a cyclone or collection
vessel so that trim or other conveyed materials are neutralized as they pass
through the unit.
Features
• Ionization prevents pneumatic conveying systems from becoming
jammed
• Dual-phase ion generation ensures high neutralization rates
• Stainless steel construction
• Available flangeless, flanged, or QF bead connection
• Available in standard and custom sizes
Receipt of Equipment
Carefully remove the equipment from the carton.
Inspect contents for damage that may have occurred during shipment. If any
damage has occurred during shipment, the local carrier should be notified at
once. A report should be forwarded to Simco-Ion, 2257 North Penn Road,
Hatfield PA 19440 (215-822-6401).
Empty the carton to ensure that small parts are not discarded.
Return Shipments
Prior to returning goods, contact a Simco-Ion Customer Service representative
(215-822-6401) for a Return Authorization Number. This number should
be included on the packing list. All correspondence should also reference the
Return Authorization Number. Any item being returned should be shipped
prepaid and packed to provide adequate protection.

4. INSTALLATION
1. Locate the Conveyostat In-line Ionizer as close as possible to the inlet of
receiver vessels (such as dropout boxes, cyclones, fabric filters, etc.). In
these chambers, the speed of particles is lower, and the detrimental effects
of static electricity can be easily observed as clogs and material sticking.
2. The Conveyostat must be installed in the line with the flow direction of
the material being from the cable end side of the static bars thru to the
dead-end side of the static bars.
3. See power supply manual for maximum loading characteristics.

CAUTION – Electrical Shock Hazard
Before placing the Conveyostat in operation, be sure that all grounds
and connections have been made as described in the following section.
Ground Connections
The Conveyostat is provided with a ground braid assembly. The ground braid
is typically terminated with ring terminals. Grounding is important to ensure
safety and proper operation of the Conveyostat.
1. One end of the ground braid terminates at a ground stud on the
Conveyostat.
2. Terminate the other end of the ground braid to the ground stud on the
power supply or machine frame ground.
3. The Conveyostat and power supply must be grounded to machine frame
ground. This connection may be made through the ground braid.

CAUTION – Electrical Shock Hazard
Disconnect input voltage to power supply while making high voltage
connections.
High Voltage Connections
1. Connect Conveyostat to BPS-C power supply using an IQ Power
Extension Cable. The Conveyostat must be equipped with a two-prong
HV connector assembly. The connector assembly at the Conveyostat plugs
into the receptacle end of the HV extension cable. Secure connection
with (2) captive screws on connector, DO NOT over-tighten screws. HV
extension cables may be chained together to a maximum of 100 feet per
Conveyostat. The plug-end of HV extension cable plugs into HV1 or
HV2 on the BPS-C. Secure connection with (2) captive screws on plug,
DO NOT over-tighten screws. See BPS-C instruction manual.
NOTE – Failure to fully seat the high voltage connectors into the
power supply connectors may result in permanent damage to the bar,
cable, or power supply.
2. Retrofit Conveyostat to BPS-C power supply by disconnecting and
removing the Dual Phase+ power supply. Prepare the existing HV wiring
by installing spring loaded cable connectors (SLCC). Follow instructions
included in the adapter kit to install the SLCC connectors. Attach the
SLCC connectors to the BPS-C to SLCC Adapter. Plug adapter into HV1
or HV2 on the BPS-C. Secure connection with (2) captive screws on plug,
DO NOT over-tighten screws. See BPS-C instruction manual.
NOTE – When retrofitting note that the BPS-C is designed to work
with resistively coupled static eliminators. Conveyostat in-line ionizers
with serial numbers beginning with “16” or greater have resistively
coupled static bars. If the Conveyostat serial number begins with “15”
or less, the static bars should be replaced.
3. Connect Conveyostat to Dual Phase+ power supply Dual Phase+ power
supply using a HV Cable Assembly. HV Cable Assemblies are available
in various lengths up to 100 feet. The HV cable assembly connects to
the Conveyostat inside an insulated junction tube. There the HV cable
ring terminals are connected with a screw / nut. Once connected, the
multi HV wire connector tube is slid into place over the connection and
secured with a nylon screw. The high voltage cables must be kept isolated
from each other and from ground. When utilizing conduit, it must be

non-metallic and the HV cable from alternate phases cannot be combined
in the same conduit. Failure to do so may result in poor performance,
cable insulation failure, and/or power supply nuisance tripping. See Dual
Phase+ instruction manual.
4. Route cables from Conveyostat to power supply. Keep cables clear of
frames and machinery that could abrade and/or damage the cable.
NOTE – Failure to follow the above guidelines may result in poor
system performance, exhibited by nuisance alarms, power supply
tripping and/or cable insulation failure.
