Traditionally blower
performance and the related specifications, with ever
increasing air velocities, has been the focus for blow
off system comparison. The higher velocities are
presumed to translate into increased drying performance.
However, as is evident when evaluating these systems on
site, this is not always the case. To create high
velocity air, high speed fans operating at 3,600 rpm are
the usual choice. This selection in turn produces a high
frequency whine and an overall increase in noise level.
Although the fan specifications are important and air
velocities are relevant, what is obviously more
important is surface impact air velocity.
The
"Performance Option"
All blower manufacturers' fans can be selected to
conform to similar specifications. If the blower is then
connected to a conventional blow off delivery system
(combinations of knife or slotted nozzles) then the
combination is limited by the characteristics of that
blow off delivery system. This is where the Pioneer
System is superior to the others.
Production line water blow off systems can be classified
into two distinct and separate areas:
Blower Performance:
Pioneer manufactures its own fans and housings to
guarantee the highest quality control and to allow for a
greater degree of custom mountings. The fan
is built to
meet and exceed automotive industry standards,
incorporating 1750 rpm motors, 1/2 the speed of
conventional systems. This reduced fan speed eliminates
the whine, while the larger fan diameter and associated
duct work reduces the overall noise levels. AMCA
certification available.
Delivery System:
At the heart of the Pioneer Blow Off System is our
unique patented cyclonic nozzle. This nozzle is capable
of delivering air at higher velocities to any surface
over much greater distances than conventional systems.
By dividing the air flows into many separate air streams
it becomes possible to be very selective as to the point
of impact. This feature makes it possible to dry
multi-faceted shapes. Pioneer Blow Off Systems are
currently drying shapes as varied as automotive facia,
steel office cabinets, full car and truck body shells
and equipment as large as farm vehicles and railway
locomotives.
The cyclonic blow off nozzle delivery system is used
exclusively in all our patented cyclonic blow off
systems. |
