Adjustable Air Amplifier from Nex Flow™ Technologies for a variety
of applications - either anodized aluminum or stainless steel for
high temperature and corrosive environments.
-
Adjustable Air
Amplifier is easy to mount and maintain. Compressed air consumption
and noise levels are reduced.
-
Adjustable Air
Amplifier takes energy from a small volume of compressed air
to produce high velocity, high volume, low pressure output airflow.
-
Adjustable Air
Amplifier is quiet, efficient and can amplify flows up to 20
times their input air consumption rate.
Adjustable Air Amplifier
- How It Works
Air flows from the supply
inlet (1) into an annular chamber (2) and then throttled by an annular
gap (3) resulting in high velocity air which adheres to the Coanda
profile (4) which directs the flow outward. The low pressure area
at (5) draws in a high volume of surrounding air (6) producing high
volume, high velocity output flow.

Adjustable Air
Amplifier Ducting
Both the inlet (vacuum intake) and
discharge ends may be ducted for light material and fume conveying
applications. Care must be taken to avoid unnecessary restrictions
that will cause back pressure or suction resistance that will reduce
performance levels. Keep back pressure and resistance to under 2"
of water column.
Adjustable Air Amplifier Applications
Replace fans, used for blow-off, cleaning, drying,
cooling and conveying.
- Automotive:
Remove water, coolant, dust, and scrap in parts manufacturing/assembly
operations. Cool enamel and water based paints in parts manufacturing,
auto body shops or assembly lines.
- Bottling:
Blow off of water from the tops of cans, bottles prior to labeling,
ink jetting, palletizing or packaging. Conveying light materials.
- Chemicals:
Blow off of chemicals or water prior to labeling or packaging.
- Food:
Remove water from product or packaging.
- General
Manufacturing:
Part ejection, fume removal, dust and liquid blow off from all
types of parts, conveying away waste, ideal for replacing fans
in some cooling operations such as tempering glass.
- Metals:
Coolant and other liquid removal on process lines from Aluminum,
Steel, Brass or other materials. Dry metals prior to other operations
such as plating or polishing. Cool metal parts prior to coating
or painting. Coolant mist removal. Boost vacuum systems to remove
grinding dust. Cool steel forgings.
- Paper
& Lumber:
Sawdust removal and control by boosting the vacuum system, dust
removal. Trim removal in converting applications.
- Plastic:
Dust and scrap blow off. Cool moldings after extrusion, then
blow off and dry prior to forming.
- Printing:
Cooling to set some inks, scrap blow off.
- Pharmaceutical:
Remove liquid prior to labeling or packaging waste removal for
solid materials. Extract unfilled capsules by vacuum as they
pass on a conveyor.
- Textile:
Scrap and trim removal on textiles to eliminate expensive vacuum
systems.
Adjustable
Air Amplifier Specifications
Stainless steel or anodized aluminum are materials of construction.
Three standard outlet (outside) diameters: 1-1/4", 2",
4". Other sizes available upon request.
Come with a standard .002" gap that is adjustable. If greater
force is required, the gap may be adjusted for greater flow.
