What are Super Air Amplifiers?

Super Air Amplifiers have the highest amplification ratios and are the most efficient of all Air Amplifiers. The patented* design uses a special shim to maintain critical position of the component parts. As a result, a precise amount of compressed air is released at exact intervals toward the center of the Super Air Amplifier. These jets of air create a constant, high velocity outlet flow across the entire cross sectional area. Additional free air is pulled through the unit, resulting in higher amplification ratios. The balanced outlet airflow minimises wind shear to produce sound levels that are typically three times quieter than other Air Amplifiers.

Super Air Amplifiers are supplied with a .003" (.08mm) slotted air gap which is ideal for most applications. Flow and force can be increased by replacing the shim with a thicker .006" (0.15mm) or .009" (0.23mm) shim. *Patent #5402938

How to Determine Super Air Amplifier Total Ouput Flow And Air Consumption

Total Airflow: From the performance curves (above), determine total output flow for any Super Air Amplifier at any pressure. Example: A Model 120021 at 60 PSIG (4.1 BAR) supply air pressure has a total output flow of 120 SCFM (3398 SLPM). Air Consumption: Divide total output flow by the amplification ratio (shown in the table above) to determine air consumption for any Super Air Amplifier at any air pressure. In the example above, the Model 120021 at 60 PSIG (4.1 BAR) supply air pressure has a total output flow of 120 SCFM (3398 SLPM). Dividing this total flow by its amplification ratio of 18 gives an air consumption of 6.7 SCFM (189 SLPM).

Electronic Flow Control (EFC)

EXAIR's EFC is an electronic flow control that dramatically reduces compressed air costs by turning off the compressed air when no part is present. This minimises compressed air use for blowoff, drying, cooling, conveying and static elimination operations. The EFC combines a photoelectric sensor with a timing control that limits compressed air use by turning it off when no part is present. Visit the EFC page for more information.
