A couple days ago I took a
call from an extrusion company who was looking to increase the airflow in
their plating operation. They manufacture several different shapes and styles
of aluminum extrusions by the way of 8 large extrusion presses. On one of the
presses they make a specialty line of products that are sent to a finishing
operation to be anodized.
Above the anodizing process tanks
they use a vacuum hood to capture fumes and send them to a scrubber system so
the air can be cleaned before being exhausted. They were starting to see an
increase in the level of VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) gases in the area
and, after some internal testing, determined the existing system wasn't
moving enough air through the system for the gases to be adequately delivered
to the scrubber tank.
After further discussion, the
customer ordered our Model # 120022 2" Super Air Amplifier
to test under our Unconditional 30 Day Guarantee. Air
Amplifiers are one of the most efficient products in the EXAIR
catalog. Using a patented internal shim, they use a small amount of
compressed air that passes through an internal chamber where it is exhausted
through a thin gap at high velocity. This directed airflow creates a lower
pressure at the intake side which draws in a large amount of free air. The 2
combining air flows result in a large volume of "amplified", high
velocity exhausting airflow, making them ideal for increased air movement.
If you have an application where
you need to increase airflow or if you're looking to vent or exhaust noxious
fumes, an Air Amplifier is the ideal choice. For
help selecting the best Model or to discuss a particular process, please contact
an application engineer for assistance.
