Standard Stainless Steel Air Knife
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The Standard Stainless Steel Air Knife from Nex Flow™ is easy to install and maintain. It can reduce both compressed air consumption and noise levels. used to blow off liquid or debris from products as they travel on conveyors.
Built and designed for significantly longer life in difficult environments than many competing products. Flexible mounting options and easy to fit in small spaces. Energy reduction in compressed air use up to 90% and noise reductions of 10 dbA. Maintenance free with output easily controlled, safe to use.
It produces a “laminar” flow of air using the Coanda effect. This draws a large volume of air from the surrounding area along with the small amount of compressed air from the Air-Blade. It also produces an output flow up to 30 times.
