Venting and exhaust air-flow amplifier Fixed X-Stream®

The Fixed X-Stream™ Air Amplifier from Nex Flow™ is a zinc die cast unit (smaller sizes) or die cast aluminum (larger sizes) able to hold up in the most rugged required installations in manufacturing operations. It is the most popular air amplifier and suitable for most applications for blow off, cooling, or venting. The air amplifier works utilizing the Coanda effect, essentially converting pressure normally lost as noise into a useful, amplified, and high velocity laminar flow. The gap where the compressed air exits the amplifier is preset with a stainless steel shim, normally .002”. The gap can be adjusted by adding additional shims to increase the force required and for the outlet flow. Five sizes are available – ¾”, 1-1/4”. 2”, 4” and 8”. Shim sizes available in .002” and .003” sizes and can be stacked. The Fixed X-Stream™ Air Amplifier from Nex Flow™ is easy to mount using the mounting holes on each unit. Essentially maintenance free, they are easy to use reducing both compressed air consumption and noise levels. These quiet units can amplify airflows up to 16 times their input air consumption rate. When the amplifiers do not have an attachment at the amplified air exit, there is another additional air amplification of 3 times more. Overall air flow can therefore be amplified up to 48 times the compressed air consumed! For blow off applications for drying they are suitably designed to get into corners, and blow off parts such as the tops and bottoms of cans, scooping out water from recessed corners.
