Industrial Air Knife

Canada Blower Air Knife Systems utilize compressed air for industrial applications that include drying, removing excess oils and liquids, dust blow off, and cooling. An air knife is effective and efficient. The laminar (uniform) sheet of air is projected along the entire length of the air knife to provide an air flow that covers the entire surface of the product.

Canada Blower is a well known designer and manufacturer of industrial blow-off air-knife systems. Canada Blower has developed an universal blow-off air-knife system that includes a super high pressure single stage centrifugal pressure blower ans a system of tube-type slot air knives, that completely replaces traditional compressed air blowoff systems, and save money due to much higher operating efficiency. A flexible PVC pipe is sued to feed Air Knives from the outlet og high pressure blower. Adjustble slot opening at each air-knife enables to regulate the air velocity and volume, as well as "focus" air blow off system on a certain distance from a flat surface that has to be dryed. If necessary an additional air damper at the blower can be added fro more flexibility. An inlet blower Filter helps to eleiminate any dust and solid particles inside the blower and air knives. Typical air velocity at the exit from Air Knife reaches 30,000 - 40,000 feet per minute, that provides efficient flowoff effect even with relatively high-speed conveyor lines.

A specially designed support system for Air Knives also allows for directional adjustment of the air flow around moving parts. With this elaborated air adjustment system it is easy for an employee to re-direct blow-off
iguration is being run at any given time.

An added bonus is that Canada Blower AirKnife System lets its customers free up at least 80% of an employee's time. For manufacturers running two or three shifts a day, those man-hour savings add up to substantial cost savings.

The maintenance of the system is minimal, it consists of air filter replacing ones in few months... it takes may be ten minutes... that's all the regular maintenance that the blowoff system requires.

Standard material of Air-Knife construction includes a mild steel blower and aluminum air-knife body with steel powder coated or stainless steel support columns. But some tough industrial applications might necessiate using of stainless steel air knives or stainless blowers, that are available from Canada Blower too; as well as inline De-Ionizing accessory.

The Canada Blower Company offers a wide range of silencing solutions specifically designed for its fans and blowers. Each silencer is individually selected, designed, and built for the application after considering the following engineering factors:

+ Fan application including gas-stream composition, velocity, and temperature.
+ Fan sound-power levels at the fan’s specific operating speed.
+ Fan and silencer dimensions for compact design, low first cost, and ease of installation.
+ Silencer pressure drop and its impact on fan performance.
+ Desired sound levels in the environment.

DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION

INTERNAL BAFFLES: Aerodynamically designed for low-pressure losses. Least impact on fan performance.
FLANGES: Constructed of structural angle designed to match the fan flange. Flanges are pre-drilled for ease of installation. The non-fan end can be custom-designed.
CONSTRUCTION: All-welded, heavy-gauge construction. Standard casing material is mild steel with galvanized-steel internal components. Acoustical media protected by fiberglass cloth and perforated metal facing.
COATING: Industrial-grade New York Blower green. There are other formulations and colors available.
