Line Vac Improves Pharmaceutical Application

A 316 Stainless Steel Line Vac is used by a pharmaceutical company to convey pills and tablets to a packaging station. Our standard stainless steel models (Type 303) offer good corrosion resistance and are ideal for food service, abrasive or corrosive applications. For critical applications including certain foods and pharmaceutical products, Type 316 stainless steel models provide excellent corrosion resistance. For tablet transfers Line Vac of higher dia may be used <<Watch Videos>> One Of Customer's Application: This application is for a pressed powder tablet operation. The tablet press mold has a small hole in it which pulls a vacuum on the formed tablet to keep it in place and remove any leftover powder from the mold. A vacuum generator that is used to hold the tablet in place had low vacuum flow and did not always remove the residual powder from the tablet press. This resulted in poor quality tablets with pitting on the tablets. An EXAIR Line Vac model #6058, our smallest Line Vac product, used with 3/8? inside diameter hose provided a boost to the vacuum flow and recovered any residual powder from the tablet press. The powder moved easily through the Line Vac hose and dumped into the central vacuum recovery system. The quality issues were eliminated.

Need Ultrasonic Leak Detector ! Because Leaks Won’t Find (Or Fix) Themselves

As margins get tighter and cost of manufacturing climbs, industries are looking into different areas to be more efficient.  A big focus nowadays is in their compressed air system.  Why is this?  Manufacturers are starting to realize that it takes an abundant amount of electricity to make compressed air.  That is why EXAIR manufactures compressed air products for optimization to get the best efficiency.  But what many manufacturers don’t realize is that quiet little hissing sound from there compressed air lines is costing them much money.   That is why EXAIR has the Ultrasonic Leak Detector.

When a leak occurs, it emits an ultrasonic noise.  The EXAIR Ultrasonic Leak Detector can pick this up.  It has a frequency range from 20 KHz to 100 KHz, above human hearing, so it can make the inaudible leaks, audible.  With three sensitivity ranges and LED display, you can find very minute leaks.  It comes with headphones and two attachments; the parabola attachment to find leaks up to 20 feet (6 meters) away, and the tube attachment for local proximity to define the exact location of the leak.

If you have any such type requirement at your work place, kindly contact us.

Larger 303SS Air Conveyor Converts Standard Pipe to Convey in Corrosive Environments

EXAIR’s new Type 303 Stainless Steel 2-1/2 NPT Threaded Line Vac Air Operated Conveyors convert ordinary pipe into a powerful conveying system for parts, scrap, trim and other bulk materials. They are ideal for food, chemical, pharmaceutical and medical processes or areas likely to be wet and corrosive which require the benefits of 303SS including excellent chemical and corrosion resistance, performance in higher temperatures, long service life and low maintenance. Their larger size makes them perfect for conveying bigger parts and large volumes of material over long distances. The Threaded Line Vac is designed to attach to standard plumbing pipe couplers, making it easy to build a complete system using common pipe and fittings that are readily available.

Threaded Line Vac Conveyors eject a small amount of compressed air to produce a vacuum on one end with high output flows on the other. Response is instantaneous and regulating the compressed air pressure provides infinite control of the conveying rate. Applications include scrap trim removal, material conveying, part transfer, fiber tensioning and filling operations.

2-1/2 NPT 303SS Threaded Line Vacs are CE compliant and meet OSHA pressure requirements. The complete size range is 3/8 NPT through 3 NPT. Threaded Line Vac models are also available in type 316 stainless steel for even more demanding high temperature, corrosive and hygienic environments. Visit www.vivekengineers.net  for the large variety of Air Operated Conveyors available including Light Duty, Standard, Threaded, Heavy Duty and Sanitary Flange.

How Exair Air Nozzles Work

Air Nozzles use the Coanda effect to amplify compressed airflow up to 25 times or more. As illustrated on the right, compressed air (black arrows) is ejected through a series of nozzles on the outer perimeter. As the air travels along the outer wall of the nozzle, surrounding air (blue arrows) is entrained into the stream. The air stream that results is a high volume, high velocity blast of air at minimal consumption. The air is always ejected so it can vent safely, well below OSHA dead end pressure requirements, should the nozzle end be blocked.

Selecting The Right Air Nozzle

EXAIR manufactures a wide selection of Air Nozzles and Jets, which are divided into two groups. The first group includes Air Nozzles and Jets that deliver force up to 22 ounces (624 grams) and are suitable for most applications. The second group includes Air Nozzles that produce high force up to 23 lbs (10.43 kg) where additional reach and force are required.

• Type 303 Stainless Steel- high temperatures and corrosive environments. Max temp 800°F (426°C)
• Type 316 Stainless Steel- high temperatures, corrosive environments, and mechanical wear. Max temp 1000°F (538°C)
• Brass- general purpose applications. Max temp 400°F (204°C)

Six Steps To Optimizing Your Compressed Air System

Step 1: Measure the air consumption to find sources that use a lot of compressed air.
Step 2: Find and fix the leaks in your compressed air system.
Step 3: Upgrade your blowoff , cooling and drying operations using engineered compressed air products.
Step 4: Turn off the compressed air when it isn’t in use.
Step 5: Use intermediate storage of compressed air near the point of use.
Step 6: Control the air pressure at the point of use to minimize air consumption.

Made from type 316 stainless steel to provide maximum hygiene and corrosion resistance, these Line Vacs are available in 1-1/2", 2", 2-1/2" and 3" flange sizes. Flanged Line Vacs convert flanged piping systems into a powerful conveyor for product, parts, scrap, trim and other bulk materials. Their larger throat size makes them perfect for conveying bigger parts and large volumes of material over long distances.

Sanitary Flange Line Vac Conveyors eject a small amount of compressed air to produce a vacuum on one end with high output flows on the other. Response is instantaneous and regulating the compressed air pressure provides infinite control of the conveying rate. Applications include material conveying, part transfer and filling operations. 

All EXAIR Line Vacs are CE compliant, meet OSHA pressure requirements, and are ready to ship from stock. Additional families of Line Vac are available to fit hose, tube or threaded pipe. Many smaller sizes are available down to 3/8" hose or 3/8 NPT threads and large hose or pipe sizes up to 6". Many materials are available including aluminum, type 303 and type 316 stainless steel.
