Replace Ordinary Nozzles with Vortex Nozzles

Vortex nozzles release a small amount of compressed air at near-sonic velocity through a fine, ring-shaped nozzle.  As the high-speed “tube” of air emerges from the nozzle, it creates a strong vacuum along its sides, pulling a much larger volume of surrounding air into the stream.  Thus, the flow output/input ratio of vortex nozzles can be as high as 20 to 1. This amplification process generates the same quantity of airflow as standard nozzles but uses less compressed air and runs quieter.

According to the vortex nozzle manufacturers, vortex nozzles amplify the flow of compressed air by a factor of up to 20 times. Conservatively, we can say that use of vortex nozzles would generate the same flow rate of air as a regular nozzle, while using 1/10 as much compressed air in the facility. Also, vortex nozzles are in full compliance with OSHA regulations regarding the acceptable noise levels. Thus, the use of these vortex nozzles will reduce demand for compressed air and reduce the noise levels on the line. Other sustainable alternatives for effective usage of compressed air.
