DescriptionA Super Air Amplifier™ pulls in large volumes of surrounding air using a small amount of compressed air to produce high volume, high velocity outlet flows through a fixed air gap. Utilizing the Coanda effect, Air Amplifiers create a simple, low cost way to circulate air, move smoke, fumes and light materials. They are effective to cool, clean and dry parts or processes and in workstation dust collection applications. Quiet, efficient Super Air Amplifiers will create output flows up to 25 times their consumption rate. Both the vacuum and discharge ends of the Air Amplifier can be ducted, making them ideal for drawing fresh air from another location or moving smoke and fumes away.

How It WorksCompressed air flows through the air inlet into an annular chamber and is throttled through a small ring nozzle at high velocity. The primary airstream adheres to the Coanda profile directing it toward the outlet. A low pressure area is created at the center, inducing a high volume flow of surrounding air into the primary airstream. The combined flow exhausts as a high volume, high velocity flow.
