Air amplifier from Nex Flow™ Air Products Corp., for rugged applications (Made by Brauer):

Air amplifier is easy to mount and maintain reducing both compressed air consumption and noise levels. It takes energy from a small volume of compressed air to produce a high velocity, high volume, low pressure output air flow.

Air amplifier is quiet, efficient, can amplify flows up to 20 times their input air consumption rate.

Air Amplifier Features:

  • No moving parts.
  • More compact, simple, lightweight and portable.
  • Driven by air, not electricity.
  • Replace fans, used for blow-off, cleaning, drying, cooling and conveying.
  • High airflow amplification.
  • Instant on-off, no moving parts, no electricity or explosion hazard.

Air Amplifier Benefits:

  • Longer life in difficult environments than competitive models
  • Lower compressed air consumption than ejectors and venturis.
  • Maintenance free with output easily controlled, safe to use.

Air Amplifier 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 .

Air Amplifiers Specifications:

Air amplifiers come in five standard outlet (outside) diameters:

3/4" (19mm)
1-1/4" (31mm)
2" (51mm)
4" (101mm)
8" (200mm).


Air amplifiers come with a standard .002" (.05mm) shim to control the compressed air exit gap which will work for 90% of all applications encountered. If greater force is required, more .002" (.05mm) shims or a .003" (.07mm) shim may be installed to open the gap for greater flow.

Air Amplifier - How It Works
Air Movers

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.

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.

Airmover Air Amplifier - Ducting:

Both the inlet (vacuum intake) and discharge ends of the unit 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.
