EXAIR's 1" Flat Super Air Nozzle™ is a highly efficient, unique flat air nozzle. Their patented (U.S. Pat 5402938) design uses a special shim to maintain the critical position of the component parts. Air is released through a thin slot, across a flat surface. The result is a wide, forceful stream of high velocity, laminar airflow with minimal air consumption and noise. Force and flow may be easily increased or decreased by installing a different shim. The 1" Flat Super Air Nozzle with Stay Set Hose includes EXAIR's Flexible Stay Set Hose for applications where frequent repositioning is required. The Stay Set Hose has "memory" and will not creep or bend. The 1" Flat Super Air Nozzle is available in zinc/aluminum alloy or Type 316 stainless steel.

Materials
1" Flat Super Air Nozzle Materials
- Zinc Aluminum alloy - general purpose applications. Max temp 250°F (121°C).
- Type 316 Stainless Steel - high temperatures, corrosive environments, and mechanical wear. Max temp 1000°F (538°C).
Accessories
Shim Sets - Shim sets for the 1" Flat Super Air Nozzles include a .005" (0.13mm), .010" (0.25mm), and .020" (0.51mm) thick shim.
Swivel Fittings - make it easy to adjust the aim of the Air Nozzles and Jets. Correct placement of the blowing angle can help optimize performance, reduce noise levels and improve efficiency. Swivel Fittings permit a movement of 25 degrees from the center axis for a total movement of 50 degrees. Type 303 or 316 Stainless Steel.

How It Works:
How the Flat Super Air Nozzle Works |
|
|
|
|
|
Compressed air flows through an inlet (1) into the plenum chamber of the Flat Super Air Nozzle. The flow is directed to a precise, slotted orifice. As the primary airflow exits the thin slotted nozzle (2), it follows a flat surface that directs the airflow in a perfectly straight line. This creates a uniform sheet of air across the entire length of the Flat Super Air Nozzle. Velocity loss is minimized and force is maximized as the room air (3) is entrained into the primary airstream at a ratio of 40:1. The result is a well defined sheet of laminar airflow with hard-hitting force and minimal wind shear. |
