Description
What is the EXAIR Super Air Wipe?
The EXAIR Super Air Wipe is an advanced circular air curtain designed to provide powerful and uniform 360° airflow for cleaning, drying, cooling, and blowoff operations in industrial environments.
Engineered for cylindrical products such as cables, hoses, pipes, wires, tubing, fiber optics, and extrusion components, the EXAIR Super Air Wipe delivers efficient airflow performance while significantly reducing compressed air consumption.
The problem with traditional blowoff
Traditional blowoff systems often rely on drilled pipes, open tubes, or homemade air rings that consume excessive compressed air and provide inconsistent airflow coverage.
Replacing these outdated systems with circular air curtain solutions such as the EXAIR Super Air Wipe allows industrial facilities to improve cleaning performance, reduce operating costs, and increase energy efficiency.
How EXAIR Super Air Wipe Works
Compressed air enters an internal ring chamber and exits through a specially designed ring-shaped nozzle at high velocity, creating a low-pressure area that entrains surrounding atmospheric air.
This produces a powerful and uniform airflow curtain around the entire surface of the product, amplifying ambient air instead of relying only on compressed air.
Industrial Applications & Easy Installation
Air wipe for industrial applications technology is commonly used in manufacturing facilities, extrusion operations, automotive production, metalworking industries, food processing plants, wire and cable manufacturing, plastics processing, and packaging operations.
One of the major advantages of the EXAIR air curtain for cleaning applications is its split design, which allows installation around existing production lines without interrupting operations — simplifying installation while reducing downtime.

EXAIR Air Wipes selection guide
How does the Air Wipe EXAIR circular air curtain work?
Compressed air enters (1) the Air Wipe into a ring-shaped chamber (2). There it is blown through a small ring-shaped nozzle (3) at high velocity. This primary air flow acquires a coanda effect (4) which is directed downward along the angled wall of the Air Wipe. A low pressure area (5) is created in the center, inducing a high volume flow of atmospheric air in conjunction with the primary air flow. The air flow at the discharge of the Air Wipe creates a 360° conical ring that adheres itself to the material passing through it (6), uniformly and thoroughly cleaning the entire surface area with a high velocity air flow.
Why choose an Exair circular air curtain?
Prior to the introduction of the Super Air Wipe Exair circular air curtain to the market, the only way to dry, clean, and cool cylindrical surfaces was by using rings made with spun air nozzles or drilled orifices. The high air flow from the nozzles or orifices along the ring was inconsistent and generally produced poor results. The Exair Super Air Wipe, on the other hand, provides a high volume, high velocity air flow that is evenly expelled through a 360° ring. By adjusting the inlet pressure, the velocity of the ejected air can be varied from a strong blast to a light breeze, thus also lowering the compressed air consumption and noise level depending on the application.
