This innovative 24V Power Supply Unit replaces the legacy 904 and 905 AC units, offering improved energy efficiency, remote capabilities, and robust performance in tough factory environments. By leveraging a 24V Power Supply Unit, manufacturers can now achieve smarter static and contamination control with more reliability and ease.
Tackling Static Challenges in Packaging
Static electricity poses ongoing problems during packaging operations, including printing, thermoforming, labelling, and form-fill-seal. These issues can lead to contamination, operator shocks, misalignment of materials, and increased product defects. Especially in sectors like pharmaceuticals and food, managing static is critical to product quality and hygiene.
Why 24VDC Matters in Static Management
Unlike traditional AC-powered systems prone to voltage fluctuations, the new 24V Power Supply Unit uses a universal 24VDC input for greater stability. This shift enhances reliability and ensures compatibility with modern factory automation setups. Capable of powering up to four AC ionisers, the unit supports a wide range of configurations and manufacturing needs.
Smart Features for Smarter Factories
The 906 Hyperion PSU integrates smart features such as:
- Remote control and health monitoring
- Standby mode to conserve energy
- Temperature and fault detection for safe operation
With mounting holes matching older models, the upgrade process is seamless for users transitioning from the 904 or 905.
Built for Real-World Industrial Conditions
Developed over 18 months with Meech’s engineering teams, the unit is tailored for harsh conditions. It has an operating tolerance of up to 85°C, making it ideal for high-heat, high-humidity environments such as those found in India. Built-in safety features include automatic shutdown and remote alerts to prevent downtime and streamline maintenance.
According to Meech’s Sales Director, Ian Atkinson said: “With the new 906 Hyperion 24V PSU, manufacturers can expect a unit that delivers power more precisely, runs more efficiently, and handles the complexities of static control in challenging packaging and converting environments.”
