The Static Line II Ionizer
The Static Line II ionizer is an antistatic device which emits negative and positive ions, neutralizing the electrostatic charging in the cryochamber.
The sections no longer stick to the knife edge, or bunch up one on top of the other, but float in a nice ribbon over the knife surface. The pickup of the sections can be done easily.
We recommend the use of the Static Line II ionizer for trimming, sectioning and section collection.
