Blowing Guide
The technique of blowing with compressed air in the industrial sector finds its application in various fields such as cleaning, drying, cooling, ejection, gas extraction, transport, and demolding.
NOVACOM, manufactures in FRANCE, a whole range of components for economic or boosted blowing allowing a substantial reduction in compressed air consumption or a power gain, resulting in a rapid and significant return on investment.
ECONOMIC BLOWING
Achieve better blowing performance with lower compressed air consumption, thus saving money.
A reduction in consumption of up to 90% of compressed air, depending on the model used, but also a reduction in noise generated by up to 40%!
BOOSTED BLOWING
Without modifying your compressed air network, achieve a significant gain in blowing power, essential for increasing productivity. An increase in blowing up to 25/1 depending on the chosen model!
IONIZING AIR CURTAINS
Ionizing air curtains allow the neutralization of electrostatic charges and the expulsion of parasitic particles. With an antistatic bar and an air curtain, ionizing curtains can effectively eliminate dust and achieve optimal static dust removal.
Moreover, NOVACOM air curtains, manufactured in France, effectively reduce compressed air consumption thanks to their specific design.
AIR AMPLIFIERS
| Benefits of using air amplifiers* | Pressure (bar) | Air consumption (l/min) | Sound level (dB) | Surrounding air aspirated (l/min) | Amplified air blowing (l/min) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6 | 550 to 2100 | 87 to 93 | 790 to 3550 | 3600 to 49230 |
The air amplifiers are essential tools for a variety of economic blowing, transport, and evacuation of smoke or vapors operations.
These devices can be used to increase the speed of the airflow in applications like cleaning, where they can dislodge debris more effectively than compressed air alone.
Moreover, their extraction power can be leveraged to effectively eliminate smoke, dust, and other particles in industrial cleaning or ventilation applications.
In operations, they can be used to transport a whole range of materials, from powders, plastics to grains, over long distances without resorting to complex mechanical systems. These amplifiers thus ensure a gentle and safe handling of materials , which reduces potential damage to products.
FLAT JET BLOWING NOZZLES
| Benefits of using flat jet blowing nozzles* | Pressure (bar) | Air consumption (l/min) | Thrust force (N) | Sound level (dB) | Blowing (l/min) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| at 150mm | at 450mm | |||||
| 6 | 630 to 2090 | 6 to 34 | ? to 32.4 | 70 to 76 | 630 to 2090 | |
Available with or without controllable solenoid valve.
The flat jet nozzles have been specially designed for applications requiring a flat and concentrated air jet. They exert a strong thrust with a low compressed air consumption, thanks to the Coanda effect, a peculiarity of fluid mechanics.
Usable alone, adapted on blowguns, or mounted on a blowing ramp, they are ideal for boosted blowing operations, but also for cleaning or cooling.
The integration of a solenoid valve with a flat jet nozzle improves energy efficiency by using compressed air only when necessary. This technology offers flexibility and precise control of air flow, reducing cycle time. It also simplifies maintenance and reduces associated costs. Finally, the noise generated by compressed air is reduced, improving working conditions. The nozzles will be adapted to your industrial applications, cooling, cleaning, part ejection.
ROUND JET BLOWING NOZZLES
| Benefits of using round jet blowing nozzles* | Pressure (bar) | Air consumption (l/min) | Thrust force (N) | Sound level (dB) | Blowing (l/min) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| at 150mm | at 450mm | |||||
| 2 | 130 to 1300 | 2.1 to 13 | 1.7 to 10 | 64 to 87 | 1140 to 4650 | |
The air-saving blowing nozzles or boosted effect nozzles harness the power of compressed air to perform cooling, cleaning, or part ejection tasks.
They can be adapted to blowguns or used directly on production lines. They amplify the compressed air flow and create a high thrust while consuming only a fraction of the compressed air usually used by open pipe systems.

The NOVACOM air curtains allow to cool or clean large surfaces or the periphery of profiled elements with the circular air curtains. Their specific designs allow for an economical consumption of compressed air thanks to the Coanda effect. A reduced consumption of compressed air, for equivalent performance, also allows for a significant noise reduction, unlike traditional systems with open or perforated tubes. Available in single or double flow versions for more thrust force, they can also be used to create an air barrier to separate areas of different temperatures, or prevent cross-contamination.
* The measurements presented in this technical sheet were carried out in a laboratory, in a strictly controlled environment. It is important to note that conditions in a real industrial environment may differ and that the instability of an industrial compressor's pressure could result in different values from those obtained in the laboratory. These data are provided for informational purposes only.
All Novacom blowing nozzles can be mounted on the cylindrical profile with 2, 3, 4, or 6 outlets. These blowing ramps are available in aluminum or 316L stainless steel. Many combinations are possible.
