Air
Amplifier for rugged applications.
(Made by Brauer)
Air Amplifier
will:
-
Air amplifier
- easy to mount and maintain reducing both compressed air
consumption and noise levels.
-
Air
amplifier takes energy
from a small volume of compressed air to produce a high velocity,
high volume, low pressure output air flow.
-
Air amplifier
- quiet, efficient, can amplify flows up to 20 times their
input air consumption rate.
Air
Amplifier - How It Works

Compressed 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.
Advantages
Over Fans
-
More compact,
simple, lightweight and portable
-
Driven by air,
not electricity for safety
-
No moving parts
hence safer and maintenance free
-
Each end can
be ducted for light conveying applications

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.
Specifications
Five standard outlet (outside) diameters:
3/4", 1-1/4", 2", 4" and 8".
Comes with a standard .002" shim to control the compressed
air exit gap which will work for 90% of all applications encountered.
If greater force is required, more .002" shims or a .003"
shim may be installed to open the gap for greater flow.
