SE-ACB-55 Compact AC Antistatic Bar – 5.5 kV

High-speed, compact static elimination for industrial production lines

Product Description

The FÖGE SE-ACB-55 is a compact, economical AC antistatic bar purpose-built for high-speed industrial production lines that require reliable static charge neutralisation in confined installation spaces. Operating at 5.5 kV in combination with an external SE-PAC AC high-voltage power unit, it generates a continuous field of positive and negative ions that neutralise static electricity on materials such as plastic film, paper, foil and textiles. Its robust, washable housing and shockless stainless steel emitter pins make it a dependable long-term solution for continuous operation in demanding factory environments. The plug-and-play HV connector allows fast installation and replacement without tools, and the screened HFFR-protected cable ensures both flame safety and EMI resistance.

How It Works

The SE-ACB-55 is connected to an SE-PAC-55 high-voltage AC power unit, which supplies 5.5 kV to the bar's stainless steel emitter pins. The alternating high-voltage signal causes the air surrounding the pins to ionise, creating a balanced mixture of positive and negative ions. As charged material passes within 25–100 mm of the bar, these ions are attracted to the oppositely charged surface and neutralise the static charge — reducing it to a safe, near-zero level. The shockless circuit design limits pin current to below 100 µA at all times, ensuring operator safety without affecting ionisation performance.

Advantages & Benefits

01

Fewer product defects

Eliminating static charge prevents dust attraction and coating or print failures — improving yield and reducing rework costs.

02

Consistent quality at speed

Reliable ionisation at up to 500 m/min keeps high-speed lines running cleanly without process interruptions.

03

Fast installation

The plug-and-play HV connector allows bar swap-out in minutes — minimising downtime during maintenance or changeover.

04

Low maintenance

The washable housing and long-life stainless steel pins reduce service intervals and operating costs.

05

Operator safety

Shockless design and HFFR-protected cable ensure safe operation even when personnel work close to the bar.

06

Scalable coverage

Connect up to 4 bars to one SE-PAC power unit to cover wider machine widths without adding power supply units.

07

Flexible ordering

Available in any length from 100 mm to 4500 mm and optional extended cable lengths up to 12 m.

Applications

Applications Where it helps
Plastic Film & Sheet Production Neutralize static electricity during the winding, unwinding, and cutting of PE, PP, PET, and other plastic films
— prevent dust attraction and film sticking.
Flexible Packaging Prevent film misalignment, sticking and sealing defects on VFFS and HFFS packaging machines.
Paper & Board Processing Eliminate sheet curl, jamming and charge build-up in printing, laminating and converting lines.
Labelling Machines Improve label placement accuracy and prevent label-to-label sticking at high production speeds.
Printing (Flexo, Offset) Remove static from substrates before printing to prevent ink smearing, spreading and dot gain.
Textile Lines Control static during weaving, cutting, slitting and printing of synthetic and natural fibre fabrics.
Converting Machinery Ensure clean cuts, accurate winding and consistent tension control on slitting and rewinding equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions

The SE-ACB-55 requires an SE-PAC-55 external AC high-voltage power unit. It is available in two configurations: SE-PAC-55-2-C (2 outputs, for up to 2 bars) and SE-PAC-55-4-C (4 outputs, for up to 4 bars). The power unit is not included with the bar and must be ordered separately.
The SE-ACB-55 effectively neutralises static charges at distances of 25 to 100 mm from the bar surface. Effective range may vary depending on ambient temperature, humidity and line speed. For applications requiring distances beyond 100 mm, the SE-ACB-80 (8 kV) is recommended.
The bar is effective on all non-conductive materials that accumulate static charge — including PE, PP, PET and BOPP plastic films, paper, board, textiles, rubber and composites. It is not designed for use with conductive or metal materials.
Yes. The SE-ACB-55 is orderable in any length from 100 mm to 4500 mm. The bar length should span at least the full width of the material to be neutralised. Contact FÖGE with your required length when placing an order.
Yes. The optional SE-CAB-AC-1 cable allows non-standard lengths from 1 m up to 12 m, providing flexibility for installations where the power unit is mounted further from the bar.
Yes. The housing is fully washable. Regular cleaning of the emitter pins is recommended to maintain ionisation efficiency. The FÖGE Antistatic Maintenance Kit contains all tools and materials needed for routine service.
