Exair 110212SS-316 316 Stainless Steel Super Air Knife Kit 12"

Features:

• An EXAIR Super Air Knife Kit includes a Super Air Knife, shim set, filter separator and pressure regulator (with coupler).
• It is the most efficient compressed air knife on the market.
• It delivers a uniform sheet of laminar airflow across the entire length with hard-hitting force.
• It is engineered to dramatically reduce compressed air usage while entraining ambient air at a ratio of 40:1.
• The noise level is greatly reduced when compared to other blowoffs. 
• A Super Air Knife offers an efficient way to clean, dry or cool parts, webs or conveyors as well as acting as an environmental separator or air curtain.
• 12" Type 316 St. St. Super Air Knife Kit
• Material:
  • Type 316 Stainless Steel - Some applications require better corrosion resistance than offered by Type 303 stainless steel.
  • Type 316 stainless steel offers excellent corrosion resistance, better strength properties and resists pitting.
  • These factors are important to manufacturers of food, pharmaceutical and surgical products that need to minimize contamination by the metal.
  • It can withstand temperatures up to 800°F (427°C).

• Minimal air consumption
• 40:1 air amplification
• Uniform airflow across entire length
• Variable force and flow
• No moving parts - maintenance free
• Easy mounting - compressed air inlets on each end and bottom
• Compact, rugged, easy to install
• Recessed hardware

How the Super Air Knife Works:

• Compressed air flows through an inlet (1) into the plenum chamber of the Super Air Knife.
• The flow is directed to a precise, slotted orifice.
• As the primary airflow exits the thin slotted nozzle (2), it follows a flat surface that directs the airflow in a perfectly straight line.
• This creates a uniform sheet of air across the entire length of the Super Air Knife.
• Velocity loss is minimized and force is maximized as the room air (3) is entrained into the primary airstream at a ratio of 40:1.
• The result is a well defined sheet of laminar airflow with hard-hitting force and minimal wind shear.
