Series 3150, an affordable ionization monitoring and control solution

Novx Corporation has introduced an affordable field charge sensor and controller that will provide the flexibility to precisely monitor and/or control an ionizer with a programmable monitor and has application for stand-alone field charge detection for real-time monitoring and alarm. This instrument is a microprocessor-based digital single-channel closed-loop ionizer controller that provides real-time detection and alarm which addresses customer demand to control a single ionizer at minimal cost. Novx has developed this product to provide that solution for this application, while retaining our consistent cost / performance advantage over any other possible solution to meet the requirements of emerging technologies in many industries.

The Series 3150 is for applications where the user needs closed-loop monitoring and control of the single-fan ionizer controllers providing balance control to +/- 0.2 volt. Novx has developed this product to provide all the performance features of the Series 3300 but on a digital platform with microprocessor control, address identification and programmable alarm level set-points.

By listening to customer concerns regarding ionizer balance monitoring and control, Novx has developed the Series 3150 technology to address this requirement. Novx has been providing closed-loop ionizer control in a single fan control version for many years. The Series 3150 is an extension of this well-proven technology and allows the customer the flexibility to control 1 fan with a more cost-effective solution.

This instrument represents a direct response to strategic customer communication that defines their process requirements for ESC/ESD-related monitoring for today and tomorrow's processes. As a system approach, this will help reduce process variations, decrease scrap/rework and improve process yields at the specific workstation level. This helps to improve process yields and increase tool availability with the end result being increased factory capacity.
