Adjustable Air Amplifiers |
|
Adjustable Air Amplifiers have good amplification ratios and are very easy to use. The air gap is infinitely adjustable which regulates the consumption and outlet flow from a "breeze" to a "blast". They are available in aluminum or in stainless steel for food service, higher temperatures (400°F/204°C), and corrosive applications. High Temperature Stainless Steel Air Amplifiers for temperatures up to 700°F (374°C) are available. Please contact an Application Engineer. Force and flow for the Adjustable Air Amplifier is changed by turning the exhaust end (with the knurled ring loose) to open or close the continuous air gap. When desired performance is obtained, the knurled ring can be tightened to lock the flow at that setting. In most cases, a .002" to .004" (.05mm to .10mm) air gap is ideal. |

To Calculate Adjustable Air Amplifier Total Output Flow And Air Consumption: |
Total Output Flow with .002" (.05mm) thick gap setting. Excludes downstream entrainment. |
Determine total output flow for any Adjustable Air Amplifier at any pressure from the performance curves (above),
Air Consumption: Divide the total output flow by the amplification ratio (shown in the chart above) to determine air consumption for any Adjustable Air Amplifier at any air pressure. In the example below, the Model 6031 at 60 PSIG (4.1 BAR) supply air pressure has a total ouput flow of 165 SCFM (4672 SLPM). Dividing this total output flow by its amplification ratio of 16 gives an air consumption of 10.3 SCFM (292 SLPM).
Example: A Model 6031 at 60 PSIG (4.1 BAR) supply air pressure has a total output flow of 165 SCFM (4672 SLPM). |
