ION-FLUX · Signature Series Plasma Generator

Controlled Cold Plasma Generation

ION-FLUX is a precision Class E SiC FET cold plasma instrument delivering 20 kV – 40 kV sinusoidal AC across 475 kHz – 525 kHz. Two CFL-Cable/Wand assemblies. Precision frequency control, real-time telemetry, and layered safety monitoring — engineered from the ground up for bio-hackers and medical researchers who want to ask serious questions about what plasma does at the cellular level. We're finding out — and we welcome you to join the investigation.

Plasma color, intensity, and frequency characteristics are determined by the three preset Frequency and Voltage modes, or by the user via on-screen adjustments. Touch the screen to switch modes — the system loads the correct operating parameters.

A modern instrument for a century-old practice.The Signature Plasma Generator introduces modern control, safety, and repeatability to a field that has long depended on century-old equipment. Hand-built, fully instrumented, and designed for reliable operation.

For The Practitioner

If you're already running these sessions and treatments,
this is the upgrade you've been waiting for.

Most devices people rely on today were designed before the transistor; they work, but they work the way they did a hundred years ago—open-loop, uninstrumented, and nearly impossible to repeat from one session to the next.

Our Signature Series keeps the same core operating principle the community has trusted for a century and brings it into the 21st century: a real touchscreen with live readouts, three repeatable operating modes, and modern safety logic behind every interaction.

Repeatable

Saved presets. Live readouts. The same session yesterday, today, and a year from now.

Instrumented

On-board sensors track every parameter that matters. The unit can show you what it's doing.

Safe

Tap-toggle pedal, 30-minute auto-timeout, on-screen STOP, and hardware fault latches that catch faults in microseconds.

Familiar

Same screw-in bulb pattern your existing equipment uses. The practice doesn't change.

Operating Modes

Three modes. One clear dial.

The Signature operates in three preset modes, selectable from the touchscreen. Each mode is a known operating point — calibrated, repeatable, and labeled clearly on the front panel.

Mode 01

Gentle

The lowest preset. Quiet, low-intensity sessions for introductory use or sensitive operation.

Mode 02

Therapeutic

The middle preset. Balanced output for ordinary working sessions and demonstrations.

Mode 03

Advanced

The highest preset. Full output for experienced operators who know what they want.

Bulb & Cable System

Two assemblies. The bulb you already know.

Signature ships with two bulb cable assemblies and two 85-watt CFL bulbs. The bulbs use a standard Edison screw base, so replacement bulbs are widely available.

What it is

A serious, field-replaceable contact point.

An HV-rated silicone-jacketed lead, an overmolded screw-in socket, and a ring-terminal connection back to the instrument. Built to be used, dropped, coiled, uncoiled, and used again.

Two cable assemblies and two CFL bulbs ship in every case. Bulbs swap in seconds.

The Instrument

Every parameter, on the glass.

A 7-inch capacitive touchscreen is the operator's primary surface. Mode selection, live readouts, session start and stop, and fault display — all in one place, in plain language.

On the panel

Built to be read across the room, whether it’s on a lab bench or in a biohacker’s studio.

The front panel is permanently marked “Signature Series” across the top and “Plasma Generator” across the bottom, so you know exactly what you’re reaching for — even when the touch screen is dark.

017-inch capacitive touchscreen. 1024 × 600. 5-point touch. Sealed glass surface, wipe-clean.
02Three mode buttons. Gentle, Therapeutic, Advanced. The current mode is illuminated.
03Live readouts. Voltage, current, burst rate, session timer. Always visible.
04Tap-toggle foot pedal. Tap once to start the session, tap again to stop. Hands stay on the bulbs. A 30-minute firmware auto-timeout protects against forgotten sessions.
05On-screen STOP, always reachable. An on-screen STOP overrides the foot pedal at any time and returns the unit to standby.

Core Technologies

What's under the panel.

Signature integrates precision RF hardware and dual-processor embedded software:

01 · Output Stage

Class E SiC Output

Silicon-carbide switching with a dedicated high-speed gate driver — efficient operation at the operating frequency, with the voltage headroom the application demands.

02 · Frequency

DDS Frequency Synthesis

SPI-controlled direct digital synthesis for a precise, stable carrier. The instrument knows exactly where it is in the operating band at all times.

03 · Tuning

Single-Band, Purpose-Built

One operating window, designed and tuned for the application. No relay switching, no band-edge artifacts, no field tuning required.

04 · Transformer

Purpose-Built HV Transformer

Single-band step-up engineered around the operating window. Tested unit by unit before each instrument leaves the bench.

05 · Compute

Dual-Processor Architecture

A dedicated real-time MCU handles deterministic RF control, fault detection, and the foot-pedal state machine. A separate Linux-class application processor runs the GUI, audio, and session logging.

06 · Safety

Dual Over-Current Protection

Independent firmware and hardware current-sense paths — both always active, both enforce safe operating limits. Hardware latches catch fault conditions in microseconds.
