Venturi Air Movers

What is a Venturi Air Mover?

A Venturi Air Mover is a device that uses the Venturi effect to create high-speed airflow for ventilation, drying, or removing hazardous fumes. It works by passing compressed air through a narrow nozzle, which causes a drop in pressure and results in a high-velocity jet of air. This jet then draws in ambient air, significantly amplifying the total airflow output without requiring a mechanical fan or motor.

Venturi Air Movers are typically used in industrial settings such as confined space ventilation, cooling, fume extraction, and emergency smoke removal. Because they have no moving parts, they are durable, low maintenance, and safe for use in hazardous environments.

Are Venturi Air Movers Air Blowers?

People sometimes refer to Venturi air movers as "blowers" because of their function and the way they are used. While technically not blowers, Venturi air movers operate by creating high-velocity airflow using compressed air and a Venturi effect, which makes them effective at moving large volumes of air over distances. This similarity in purpose—moving or blowing air—leads to them being casually termed "blowers," despite the different underlying mechanisms compared to traditional blowers that rely on electric fans or impellers. The interchangeable use of these terms is more a matter of convenience than accuracy.

Venturi Air Movers are an effective way of managing dust and fumes in industrial settings. Using the Venturi principle, they efficiently move large quantities of air without sacrificing a powerful velocity which means contaminants will be quickly eliminated from the environment while maintaining a comfortable atmosphere for working staff at the same time. Compressed air or a saturated steam source is used to power this process, which reduces operating costs and energy consumption.

Our compressed Venturi Air Movers can reduce ambient temperatures by as much as 10 degrees Celsius, significantly enhancing human comfort levels without compromising safety or performance levels.
