ABSTRACT:
Storage cabinet for discrete articles for preventing electrical charge buildup with filtering comprising a box-like housing forming an enclosure and having a rear wall. Dividing walls are provided within the enclosure for forming a plurality of cells. Each of the cells has an opening facing forwardly from the rear wall and an openable door is provided for closing the opening of the cabinet and permitting access to the cell. Shelf supports are provided within each of the cells for receiving and carrying discrete articles which are introduced into the cells through the door of the cell. A plenum wall extends vertically in the rear of the cabinet and is spaced forwardly of the rear wall of the cabinet to provide a vertically extending plenum. Spacers are provided in the cabinet for providing a freeboard space extending vertically of the cabinet to the rear of the shelf supports and forward of the plenum wall. A blower and filter are provided for collecting air from within the enclosure in the cabinet and for supplying filtered air to the plenum at a positive pressure. Pairs of ionization emitters are mounted on the plenum wall and face inwardly into the freeboard space to emit positive and negative ions into the freeboard space. A power supply is provided for supplying power to the ionization emitters. The spacers include stops which are located in the freeboard space for preventing articles entering the freeboard space.
