Supply Chain - Featured Product
Cold air to -50°F (-46°C) from your compressed air supply - with no moving parts!
A low cost, reliable, maintenance free solution to a variety of industrial spot cooling problems. Using an ordinary supply of compressed air as a power source, vortex tubes create two streams of air, one hot and one cold, with no moving parts.
Vortex tubes can produce:
• Temperatures from -50° to +260°F (-46° to +127°C)
• Flow rates from 1 to 150 SCFM (28 to 4248 SLPM)
• Refrigeration up to 10,200 Btu/hr. (2571 Kcal/hr.)
Temperatures, flows and refrigeration are adjustable over a wide range using the control valve on the hot end exhaust.
EXAIR Vortex Tubes are constructed of stainless steel. The wear resistance of stainless steel, as well as its resistance to corrosion and oxidation, assures that EXAIR Vortex Tubes will provide years of reliable, maintenance-free operation. https://exair.co/184_530
