How Does an Air Curtain Work?
The air curtain creates an uniform invisible barrier of high velocity air to divide different environments or clean, cool and/or dry various components or pieces. By utilizing the coanda effect (wall attachment of high velocity fluid), air motion is created in its surroundings and ambient air is drawn in to produce a high velocity, high flow curtain of air for blowoff. This invisible “air-wall” is created that could also serve just as easily as a barrier preventing heated or conditioned air from leaving an area.
