7.  How does ionization work? 

Ionization/ High Voltage Systems

 

Each ionization bar is used to eliminate or significantly reduce static charges.  The high voltage from the power supply causes the ionizing pins of the static neutralizing bar to generate both positive and negative ions from the surrounding air molecules.  The static charge on the paint surface will attract and combine with the opposite charged ions, causing the material to be neutralized.  The excess ions either recombine in air or dissipate to ground.
