Exair 2612SS 12" Type 303 Stainless Steel Full-Flow Air Knife

Features:

• The Full-Flow Air Knife provides good performance with a 30:1 air amplification ratio.
• The Full-Flow Air Knife is the least expensive and is a good choice for tight spaces.
• Force is less than the other two styles.
• Air consumption and sound level falls between that of the Super Air Knife and the Standard Air Knife.
• Compressed air inlet(s) are provided on the rear. Inlets are available on each end at a small additional charge, however they are not recommended for applications where uniform flow across the length is required.
• Type 303 Stainless Steel - This is the most common grade of stainless steel. It offers good strength and is best suited to mildly corrosive environments. It can withstand temperatures up to 800°F (427°C).
• 12" Type 303 St. St. Full-Flow Air Knife

Applications:

• Part drying after wash
• Sheet cleaning in strip mills
• Conveyor cleaning
• Web drying or cleaning
• Part or component cooling
• Environmental separation
• Pre-paint blowoff
• Bag opening/filling operations
• Scrap removal on converting operations

Advantages:

• Up to 10 dBA noise reduction
• Reduced air consumption
• 30:1 air amplification
• Aluminum or stainless steel
• Compact, rugged, easy to install
• No moving parts
• Compressed air inlets on each end
• Variable force and flow

How it Work:

• Compressed air flows through the inlet (1) into a plenum chamber.
• It is then throttled through a thin nozzle (2) extending the length of the Full-Flow Air Knife.
• This primary airstream adheres to the Coanda profile (3), which turns it 90° and directs the flow down the face of the unit.
• The primary stream immediately begins to entrain surrounding air (4), for an amplification ratio of 30:1 at 6" (152mm) away.
