Static Eliminating Gun

A hand-held device containing an ion source. It is used to distribute ions to the area at which it is pointed to neutralize any static charge in that area. It may be manual or pneumatic, with a fitting for connecting to a pressurized air source, and is activated by trigger or button type control. For pneumatic air guns which do not contain an ion source see gun, air blow. Also see discharger, electrostatic for permanently affixed items.
