The comprehensive WindJet line of low flow air knives and variable air amplifiers convert compressed air into high velocity air streams that significantly increase blow-off and drying efficiencies, while simultaneously reducing energy usage costs. WindJet compressed air products require minimal maintenance and operate at low noise levels that will not exceed 69 dBA for most applications.
WindJet compressed air products are suitable for numerous applications that require less than 600 mm of drying or blow-off coverage and reduce energy costs by significantly optimising the use of compressed air.
Intensifying precise amounts of compressed air, WindJet variable air amplifiers produce a highly concentrated air stream that is good for applications that need precise airflow and variability in performance. Along with the compressed air, additional free air is pulled through WindJet variable air amplifiers, resulting in maximum air application.
WindJet variable air amplifiers save on compressed air consumption while simultaneously providing higher volumes of air to maximise drying, blow-off, or vacuum applications. With no moving parts, these devices require minimal maintenance and can use cycle air as needed. They can also be used as an exhaust device and are great for robotic applications. These air amplifiers are made in aluminium or 316 stainless steel. Also available are kits that contain an automatic drain filter with 5 micros filter, a pressure regulator, and pressure gauges, all sized properly for the amplifier being used.
