Technical Specification AirSweep — USDA-Accepted Product
Each AirSweep nozzle directs a high-pressure, high-volume, 360-degree burst of compressed air or inert gas along the inside walls of process equipment or vessels, breaking friction to lift and sweep stalled material back into the flow stream. The patented nozzle design ensures an immediate reseal after each pulse to eliminate material feedback.
Sequenced pulsing of strategically-positioned AirSweep units activate bulk material to produce a first-in, first-out controlled flow.
