Exair 3498 3400 Series Vortex Tube, 100 SCFM

Features:

• EXAIR's Vortex Tube offers a low cost, reliable, maintenance-free solution to a variety of industrial spot cooling problems.
• Temperature, flow, and cooling power can all be adjusted to produce temperatures from -50°F to +260°F (-46°C to +127°C).
• Using an ordinary supply of compressed air as a power source, the vortex tube creates two streams of air, one hot and one cold, with no moving parts.
• It is constructed of wear-resistant stainless steel, which is ideal for corrosive and hygienic environments.
• Temperature, flow, and cooling power can all be adjusted to produce temperatures from -50°F to +260°F (-46°C to +127°C).
• Vortex Tube SCFM 100

How it Work:

• Compressed air, normally 80-100 PSIG (5.5 - 6.9 BAR), is ejected tangentially through a generator into the vortex spin chamber.
• At up to 1,000,000 RPM, this air stream revolves toward the hot end where some escapes through the control valve.
• The remaining air, still spinning, is forced back through the center of this outer vortex.
• The inner stream gives off kinetic energy in the form of heat to the outer stream and exits the vortex tube as cold air.
• The outer stream exits the opposite end as hot air.
