Air Knife (14)

	Bottle Cleaning :
	Bottle cleaning uses two Nex Flow™ Model 10012X - 12" Silent X-Stream™ Air Blade™ Air Knives to blow water off bottles in a bottling line. This reduces compressed air use for blow off up to 50%. The units turn off when the line stops to conserve compressed air. When taking this on of control into energy use considerations, the energy cost compared to blowers is comparable but without the costly maintenance and noise.

	Plastic Glass Prior to Laminating with Plastic Sheet :
	A Model 15030X X-Stream™ Air Blade™ Ionizer neutralizes and cleans the surface of plate glass prior to laminating with plastic sheet. Two Model 13030 RN static bars neutralize the plastic laminate preventing dust attraction. All three items are connected to one Model EN C-4-4-outlet power supply.
