Compact blowers more robust than US imports
Compact, powerful and quiet, the new ACI EP10 belt-drive blowers are available with motors from 5.5 through to 18.5kW in standard metric or NEMA frames
Mounted on an adjustable frame work, the ACI blower-powered Airknife can be positioned and angled to achieve the maximum drying effect, in either single or multi-tier configurations.
A range of complementary accessories (rigid ducting, splash guards and quick release clamps) ensure high operating efficiency for each specific application said ACI.
Further, because of their modular nature, the Airknife systems can be installed both as original or retrofit assemblies for upgrading existing lines, permitting simple replacement of inefficient compressed air based drying systems.
Airknife comprises an acoustically enclosed blower mounted on a stainless steel frame with stainless steel airknives and fittings.
Additional flexible nozzles can be employed for specific localised zone drying.
Free, on-site demonstrations are offered by ACI to verify the efficiency of the company's airknife systems. Request a free brochure from Air Control Industries ...
