What Are Air Nozzles and Jets?
A simple solution to reduce excessive air consumption and noise level on compressed air blowoff operations. EXAIR Air Nozzles and Jets produce outlet flows up to 25 times compressed air consumption using a small amount of compressed air as the power source.
Why Air Nozzles and Jets?
Air savings, compared to open copper tubes or pipe nipples commonly used for blowoff can be as high as 80%. Less compressed air means less noise. The typical noise level reduction is 10 dBA. All Air Nozzles and Jets meet Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) maximum dead ended pressure requirements.
An open 1/4″ (6mm) copper tube, by contrast, ejects pure compressed air at up to 40 standard cubic feet per minute (1,133 SLPM), the entire output of a 10 horsepower compressor. Annual energy cost can exceed $1,000 per year. Noise levels in excess of 100 dBA are commonly produced. When supply pressure exceeds 30 PSIG (2 BAR), an open pipe, tube or drilled holes violates OSHA static pressure requirements.
