content: Some say Compressed air like that can create A LOT of static electricity, others that the last time they used a vaccum the computer gave intermittent problems they had to get a new one.So what do you think is the best way?

content: With vacuum you will touch the parts of the PC, there is a high danger to cause static discharge or break something off. Compressed air is much safer and cleans much better. As a downside it is better to use it outdoors as the dust will fly all over the air.

content: I dust my machine with my old man's air compressor all the time. You'll be fine. If you are worried about static electricity, leave the mains plugged in for earthing, but I never bother.One thing to note is not to blow air at close proximity when using a compressor, as the high air pressure can crack/dislodge things, or put a lot of flexing pressure on cards. Also, put a pencil into fans to prevent them from spinning, as you will wear them out when they spin-up really fast and abruptly.

content: I've heard first hand of a computer that stopped working entirely after someone used a household vacuum to suck dust from the insides. Worse still it wasn't their computer, but belonged to a university student.You can get special mini vacuums that are designed for cleaning inside electronics/PCs, as they use conductive plastics to prevent static build up.

content: A group of experts could theorise all day long about whether vacuuming is harmless, dangerous or suicidal.Bottom line is that just opening up your computer could result in malfunction, and the chances increase the more chances you take.The main thing is to consider the possibility that your computer could die at any moment in time, and make sure to have backup strategy to cope.If you are feeling brave - use the air compressor. If you are feeling cautious, use a soft brush and gentle vacuuming. If you have plenty of money, buy an anti-static vacuum cleaner, wear wrist strap and unscrew case with antistatic tools whilst placing PC on antistatic work bench.I use brushes and a good strong breath to clean my PC, with no bad result so far. But you have to decide for yourself how much care you want to take.I might be tempted to use an air compressor, but I think I would worry more about mechanical damage than ESD damage. Either way, I see no need to do it, other than speed and laziness.Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.Just my thoughts and experiences, feel free to ignore.

Never ever had a problem, AND I really blow the heck out of every crevice !Directly into the fan / cpu, fan / psupply, other fans and grills, CD/DVDs and m/board. Often get huge amounts of dust ejected. Done 100s this way. YMMV

Since my last post I have blasted my tower PC with compressed air whilst being as brutal as possible.The result - well here am am telling you about it using the very PC that I cleaned out just nowThat is not to say that it is a good idea in theory. I guess it all depends on just how precious you are about your PC.

content: Sometimes you can cause an expansion or ram slot to have a bad connection just by disturbing it after its sat there for years, however this is due to the dust itself getting in places it shouldn't. If that ever happens simply remove the ram/cards and blow the slots out as well. Reinstall the cards after cleaning any dust off the edge connectors.

content: There are several potential dangers from compressed air. In my experience, in order of likelihood they are:1. Getting dust or other particles in your eyes. Wear eye protection. Much more important if using high pressure air.2. Physically breaking or ejecting components. This is almost entirely limited to use of 100 psi or more air from a shop compressor. I have had parts come out of sockets, entire blades come out of fans, covers come off relays and other similar events. Most, but not all easily repairable. Again read number 1. These things could put your eye out.I have never encountered a problem from static charge using compressed air, but my nozzles are metallic and I am grounded. It is a theoretical possibility.Vacuuming has it's own set of dangers:1. Physically removing or breaking components. Almost always repairable, almost always a pain to find the part in the vacuum bin, so falls outside the easy repair category. Especially if you don't notice the removal right away.2. Static charge. This is very equipment specific, but I have one shop vacuum which has very high airflow, with plastic hoses, waste bin and attachments. This routinely builds up charges that cause painful muscle spasms if they jump to my hand. I would assume that this vacuum cleaner is very dangerous to electronics. Easy problem to rectify by using a grounded metal wand.

content: Quote from: nctnico on June 23, 2016, 04:41:06 pmThese can work well together. Have the vacuum near the PC, placed like you would a fume extractor. Commence with the compressor, blowing everything toward the vacuum. Of course, if you blast it with very high pressure, the vacuum won't be much help.Using the compressor outside is still the best option, but if you're stuck working indoors, the vacuum helps.

content: I have cleaned computers with the shop compressed air many times. Never an issues with static. I use a fine metal tube, 1mm or so, at about 100psi.I have a soldering station air intake that captures most of the ejected dust. I connect it to a large cardboard box over the computer. Otherwise the whole bench would get dirty and I really do not want to breathe that junk. In particular if the machine comes from a smoker's house....I always wear eye protection. Having a metal lathe and milling machine you realise quickly that a loose metal shaving getting in your eye at high speed will ruin your day. I did find some loose metal shaving in cheap computer desktop cases in the past, so you cannot rule it out.Second issue, that was not raised, is the same one as using compressed air to clean and dry bearings. It is very easy to over-rev them with the air jet. That can damage them. Same for fans in the computer.I remember at least three motherboards and several keyboards that I ended up dismantling and cleaning with soap and running water, isopropil and then warm air dry for several days. They all survived. Got the procedure from a failure analysis company and this was part of a testing standard!

content: You can get special esd-safe vacuum cleaners.I use an ordinary household vacuum but I am very very careful not to touch anything or get to close (which can be a bit tricky since it tend to suck itself towards things). I also try to keep things as earthed as I can by touching the chassis. I don't recommend it, but it's necessary to clean out the pc every now and then and I don't own a compressor. I haven't experienced any problems.

content: Wow! finally something on this board I know a little about. Vacuums suck for cleaning computersThank you, thank you very much, I'm here all week folks. In all seriousness this ain't rocket science. The only thing you can hurt in a computer with compressed air is the fan. Don't be a duffus and blow canned air onto the fan until it sounds like a jet taking off. I usually put my finger on it to stop it from spinning and then blow the heck out of it. I don't care how dirty your computer is take it outside and used compressed air on it until it's clean. Done, no worries.(My experience comes from supporting computers on mining and construction sites. I have cleaned computers out that were literally packed with powder fine dust. I don't care how dirty you think your computer is, these were worse. Now powder fine dust causes other problems like wearing out fan bearings, blocking air flow, and causing overheating, but compressed air is harmless.)

content: In the last 20 or so years, I've never had a single machine fail due to being vacuumed or blown out with compressed air. I generally use a combination of a normal household vacuum cleaner and a lens cleaning "pen" (it has very soft bristles that won't damage or dislodge even the smallest SMDs).I hold the vacuum above the area being cleaned, just to create enough suction to lift airborne dust, then use the lens pen to dislodge dust from boards and components. For things like heat sinks where I can't get the brush into, I use a can ofElectrolube EADPwhich has a very high pressure blast (moreso than your standard "air in a can" products you buy at office supply stores).I just vacuum around optical drives but I'd never blow compressed gas into the tray area. Chances are you'll just blow dust around the inside of the chassis and further contaminate the lens. If it's that bad that a CD/DVD drive needs a desperate clean, for $30 I'd just replace it.

If you want the driest air using a cheap compressor, pump it up, leave it overnight to cool down, drain the tank and then go. A proportion of the moisture will condense out as the air cools in the tank. A moisture trap is also good for helping keep oil out of the air. Change your compressor oil every year or so (heck, it's cheap enough). I changed to a synthetic compressor oil a couple of years ago and have noted a pretty big reduction in the grunge that accumulates in my lines too.I use compressed air all the time. I just do it outside so I don't need to deal with the mess. Even with an unregulated blowgun you'd have to be pretty ham fisted to damage electronics. You will certainly destroy fan bearings if you don't use a bit of common sense though.

content: Quote from: apis on June 24, 2016, 09:55:25 amYeah, absolutely. I've seen ball races explode with the the forces exerted by the balls when the bearings have been spun with compressed air. You don't want to be around when the outer race breaks.Any over speed condition can be nasty.I have a Festool vac with a conductive hose that comes in handy for really nasty cleaning jobs. Coupled with a paintbrush with the the bristles cut short to give them some stiffness it makes short work of dust bunnies, but most of my stuff happens with compressed air.I have my 10 year old trackball a clean last weekend and got enough fur and dust out of there to make another pet. Stuff stacks up.

content: I too use compressed air (at around 90 to 100 psi, via a small metal tube nozzle) to clean out PCs and dirty test gear. Both to remove dust (with extra scrubbing using a paint brush if necessary) and also to blow dry boards after a soap and water wash if they were *really* dirty. Compressed air blast is the only way to get water out from under VLSI solder-bump mounted chips, for instance.Never had any problems. I don't count the time I deliberately spun up a squirrel cage fan until it exploded. Just bear in mind that the air jet exerts physical force. Would you press the thing that hard with your finger? If not, don't hit it with the air jet. Standard fans can easily be spun up till they break. But even before that point, they contain coils and magnets, so can work as generators. How much AC signal from the coils is safe for the fan internal circuits? Best to hold the rotor to prevent it going really fast.

content: Quote from: AntiProtonBoy on June 23, 2016, 02:17:58 pmI would recommend you UNPLUG the PC from the mains. The one thing you will notice when you look at how an ESD protected area (EPA, I work in one) is wired is that the paths to ground are all through at least 1 MOhm resistance. Building up static electricity is one thing to avoid, discharging it quickly is another thing to avoid. The high Ohm resistance between you, your workpiece and ground makes for a more controlled discharge (and prevention of build up in the first place).My advice if you're without ESD protection: wait for a humid day, keep touching the case at all times and keep some distance between the PC and the nozzle and you'll be fine.

content: Quote from: SteveyG on June 27, 2016, 07:54:07 amESD is dangerous if you have naked, unsoldered parts. Components mounted on a board are reasonably safe because the circuitry will dissipate any charge build up before it could break something. The chances you will ESD fry something by blasting dust out from your computer are negligible. You are much more likely to damage it by the sheer force of the air blast if you aren't careful or by breaking something off by hitting it with the nozzle.I do wonder how would one go about figuring out that the PC has crashed because of ESD damage and not something much more mundane - like crappy driver or just Windows taking a dump, though!

content: I've had a computer reboot as soon as the vacuum touched the case - obviously from static. Yes, the computer should have at least been turned off.These days I use a static safe 3M vacuum - they are small/portable, black in color and all attachments are ESD friendly. When cleaning RF products such as network analyzers you want to be very careful. I've also used compressed air with excellent results. Sometimes it is the only way to get something clean. I've had scopes and network analyzers from very humid countries that were beyond disgusting internally. The crap can be so caked on that 90 PSI doesn't move it, it has to be brushed off. I prefer to only use the compressed air when it isn't really dry outside and to be sure no water is being condensed and sprayed by the compressor.

content: Hi all,I use a mini electric duster leaf blower. It has a rubber tube which is less susceptable to generating static.Rules of engagement:-1. Disconnect the PC and take it outside.2. Blow from about 10" away.3. Don't let the tip of the blower tube touch the PC at all.4. Be wary of spinning up fans with the blower as it can damage bearings/blades.5. Blow everything from multiple directions as it helps dislodge stubborn dust.6. On a particularly dusty PC then blow before removing any cards, the blow again after. This helps to avoid driving dust and grime into card slots.Ian.

It shouldn't be to big a problem because the actual source of the problem is charge physically carried by dust particles in the moving air. Unless you are moving great mounds of dust similar to the sawdust you find around a table saw it is unlikely to be a problem.

content: I wouldn't use a regular vacuum cleaner because it can pull connectors, cables and damage things.Compressed air is OK, just make sure to not let the fans spin in the airstream (hold them down with your finger). The chances of damaging something with it these days is low, the large capacitors on the board will "eat" most of the generated voltage, but why to risk it. However, what can be easily damaged if the fan is left to overspeed are the bearings.

I was already getting issues hence I was cleaning it. But it finished it off.These days I keep a few of the air cans about and use them to clear out the dust on a regular basis. Makes it easy to keep on top of it. Just have to be careful as some will spray out the propellant if not careful so stuff get IPA on it. Also if you blast fans stop them spinning fast and if they do spin, dont let the straw touch them as you will brake the fan blades.

content: I have never had a failure definitively caused by using compressed air or a vacuum by either of the stated mechanisms. But these failures have been reported.The message is that it can happen, but is somewhat uncommon. How uncommon? I have never seen any solid answers to this. My own experience suggests that it is less than one in fifty, but there are some uncontrolled variables here. I may be more careful than average. For example I mechanically restrain fans so they don't spin when cleaned with compressed air. The climate I operate in my not be representative. And there is a real possibility that latent ESD damage was caused, but not detected by me.So the question becomes one of risk vs reward with bad data to inform the decision. The reward is that compressed air and vacuums are easier and more effective than brushes and paper towels. The risk is an unknown probability of a potentially very costly repair bill.Those following this thread will all have to make their own decision. Until someone finds a way to collect a significant amount of data with appropriate identification of the variables it will be more of an emotional personal decision than a rational one. My personal decision is easily detected in the form of my answer.
