Standard Air Knife™

Energy efficient air knife with low noise level

The EXAIR Standard Air Knife™ is the original air knife design from EXAIR. It uses a Coanda profile that deflects the airflow at a 90° angle, creating a low-pressure area that draws in ambient air at a 30:1 ratio.

Efficient air knife for cleaning, drying and cooling

The Standard Air Knife™ is EXAIR's original air knife design. It uses a Coanda profile that directs airflow 90 degrees from the outlet. This creates a low-pressure area that can draw in ambient air at a 30:1 ratio, while generating powerful airflow - but it has slightly higher operating costs than the Super Air Knife.

Available as standard in lengths from 76 mm to 1219 mm and manufactured in aluminium or 303SS. Customised sizes and materials are available on request.

Which air knife is best for your application?

Compare our three different types of air knives - Super Air Knife, Standard Air Knife and Full-Flow Air Knife.

 

EXAIR Super Air Knife

Super Air Knife

  • Best choice for all types of applications
  • Lowest operating cost
  • Highest efficiency (lowest consumption of compressed air)
  • The most quiet air knife
  • Air amplification ratio 40:1
  • Compressed air inlets on each end and at the bottom of the air knife
  • Airflow length and overall length are the same

EXAIR Standard Air Knife

Standard Air Knife

  • Good choice when a lower purchase price is desired
  • Powerful and even airflow with high velolcity.
  • Higher operating cost compared to the Super Air Knife
  • Higher dBA rating compared to Super Air Knife
  • Air amplification ratio of 30:1
  • Compressed air inlets on each end of the air knife
  • Overall length is 25 mm longer than the airflow length

EXAIR Full-Flow Air Knife

Full-Flow Air Knife

  • Good choice for confined spaces
  • Good performance
  • Lowest purchase price
  • Higher operating cost compared to the Super Air Knife
  • Air amplification ratio of 30:1
  • Smallest size
  • Compressed air inlet on the back of the air knife as standard choice
  • Airflow length and overall length are the same

EXAIR Compressed air products are designed to optimise and streamline various industrial processes, and to improve the working environment.

The product range includes air knives, blow nozzles, blow guns, pneumatic vacuum conveyors and products for discharging static electricity.

EXAIR products are used in the manufacturing industry for

  • blowing clean using compressed air
  • cooling
  • drying
  • surface treatment
  • material transport (vacuum conveyors)
  • industrial vacuum cleaning (wet and dry materials)
  • removal of static electricity

EXAIR was founded in 1983 with the aim of providing the manufacturing industry with safer and more efficient air-powered products. The basic principle was to manufacture and supply the market with high quality products at a reasonable price.
