Vortex Tubes

Cold air to -50°F (-46°C) from your compressed air supply - with no moving parts!

What Is A Vortex Tube?

Vortex Tubes are an effective, low cost solution to a wide variety of industrial spot cooling and process cooling needs. A Vortex Tube turns factory compressed air into two airstreams, one very cold and one hot, using no moving parts. Simple and low-cost, a Vortex Tube can produce:

• Cool product during ultrasonic welding Temperatures from -50°F (-46°C) to +260°F (+127°C).

• Refrigeration up to 10,200 BTU/H (2571 Kcal/H)

• Air flow rates from 1 to 150 SCFM.

A control valve located in the hot exhaust end can be used to adjust the temperature drop and rise over a wide range for all Vortex Tubes.

A Model 3225 Vortex Tube keeps plastic
dishwasher arms cool during ultrasonic welding.

How the Vortex Tube Works

Compressed air, normally 80-100 PSIG (5.5 - 6.9 BAR), is ejected tangentially through a generator into the vortex spin chamber. At up to 1,000,000 RPM, this air stream revolves toward the hot end where some escapes through the control valve. The remaining air, still spinning, is forced back through the center of this outer vortex. The inner stream gives off kinetic energy in the form of heat to the outer stream and exits the vortex tube as cold air. The outer stream exits the opposite end as hot air. Read the History of the Vortex Tube for more information

Controlling Temperature and Flow in a Vortex Tube

Cold airflow and temperature are easily controlled by adjusting the slotted valve in the hot air outlet. Opening the valve reduces the cold airflow and the cold air temperature. Closing the valve increases the cold airflow and the cold air temperature. The percentage of air directed to the cold outlet of the vortex tube is called the "cold fraction". In most applications, a cold fraction of 80% produces a combination of cold flow rate and temperature drop that maximizes refrigeration, or Btu/hr. (Kcal/hr.) output of a vortex tube. While low cold fractions (less than 50%) produce lowest temperatures, cold airflow rate is sacrificed to achieve them.

Most industrial applications, i.e., process cooling, part cooling, chamber cooling, require maximum refrigeration and utilize the 3200 series Vortex Tube. Certain "cryogenic" applications, i.e., cooling lab samples, circuit testing, are best served by the 3400 series Vortex Tube.

Setting a vortex tube is easy. Simply insert a thermometer in the cold air exhaust and set the temperature by adjusting the valve at the hot end. Maximum refrigeration (80% cold fraction) is achieved when cold air temperature is 50°F (28°C) below compressed air temperature.

Vortex Tube Specifications

EXAIR Vortex Tubes are available in three sizes. Each size can produce a number of flow rates, as determined by a small internal part called a generator. If Btu/hr. (Kcal/hr.) requirements, or flow and temperature requirements are known, simply select the appropriate vortex tube according to the specification information shown below or the performance charts. Keep in mind that the vortex generators are interchangeable. If, for example, a Model 3215 Vortex Tube does not provide sufficient cooling, you need only change generators within the vortex tube to upgrade the flow rate from 15 to 25, 30 or 40 SCFM (425 to 708, 850 or 1133 SLPM).

Other Factors

Back Pressure:
The performance of a vortex tube deteriorates with back pressure on the cold air exhaust. Low back pressure, up to 2 PSIG (.1 BAR), will not change performance. 5 PSIG (.3 BAR) will change performance by approximately 5°F (2.8°C).

Filtration:
The use of clean air is essential, and filtration of 25 microns or less is recommended. EXAIR filters contain a five micron element and are properly sized for flow.

Inlet Air Temperature:
A vortex tube provides a temperature drop from supply air temperature (see Performance Charts above). Elevated inlet temperatures will produce a corresponding rise in cold air temperatures.

Noise Muffling:
EXAIR offers mufflers for both the hot and cold air discharge. Normally, muffling is not required if the cold air is ducted

Regulation:
For best performance, use line pressures of 80 to 110 PSIG (5.5 to 7.6 BAR). Maximum pressure rating is 250 PSIG (17.2 BAR), minimum 20 PSIG (1.4 BAR).

If you are unsure of your flow and temperature requirements, we recommend the purchase of an EXAIR Cooling Kit. It contains a vortex tube, cold air muffler, air line filter and all generators required to experiment with the full range of airflows and temperatures.

Adjustable Spot Cooler

With the turn of a knob, precise temperature settings to -30°F (-34°C) from your compressed air supply for spot cooling.

What is the Adjustable Spot Cooler?

Adjustable Spot Cooler is a low cost, reliable and maintenance free Spot Cooler system which utilizes a vortex tube to produce Spot Coolers Replace Liquid Coolants cold air. Adjustable Spot Cooler temperature can be adjusted using a knob at the hot end to set the temperature precisely to your requirements & application. The precise temperature setting ranges from approximately minus 30°F (-34°C) to room temperature and can be easily set with a thermometer.

Adjustable Spot Cooler comes with three generators for flow rate adjustment - 15 SCFM (425 SLPM), 25 SCFM (708 SLPM) and 30 SCFM (850 SLPM) providing refrigeration up to 2000 BTU/hr (504 Kcal/hr).The adjustable spot cooler comes with a factory installed 25 SCFM generator.

Cold air is directed using flexible tubing that holds its position. A magnetic base is standard for portability and easy mounting of the adjustable unit. Units are available with either a single point hose kit for small surface area or a dual point hose kit when heat is generated over a larger surface area.

The Adjustable Spot Cooler replaces flood
coolant and eliminates hours of cleanup
on a cast iron machining operation.

Why The Adjustable Spot Cooler?

EXAIR’S Adjustable spot cooler produces a wide range of airflow and temperature by adjusting the knob at the hot end and changing the various generators supplied. The generators control the air consumption and are easily interchangeable. The Adjustable Spot Cooler noise level is less than 75 dBA & is quite. Using an adjustable knob at the muffled "hot end", waste hot air exits the tube and controls the temperature drop at the "cold end".

It is ideally used for applications where the use of mist or liquid cooling is not suitable due to part contamination or cost. Air exits the cold end and is directed using adjustable flexible tubing to the point of use. The unit is portable using a magnetic base.

PVC hose is cooled at the exit of an
extruder so it can be coiled immediately.

How the Adjustable Spot Cooler Works

The Adjustable Spot Cooler incorporates a vortex tube to convert an ordinary supply of compressed air into two low pressure streams, one hot and one cold. With the turn of a knob, the temperature control valve allows some hot air to flow through a muffling sleeve and out the hot air exhaust. The opposite end provides a cold airstream that is muffled and discharged through the flexible hose, which directs it to the point of use. The swivel magnetic base provides easy mounting and portability.

Adjusting the Spot Cooler

The Adjustable Spot Cooler System can produce a full range of airflows and temperatures as determined by the knob setting and a small internal Keep Electrical Components Cool part called a generator. The generators control the SCFM (SLPM) of air consumption and are easily interchangeable.

The Adjustable Spot Cooler has a 25 SCFM (708 SLPM) generator installed that produces up to 1,700 Btu/hr. (429 Kcal/hr.). If less cooling is desired, the 15 SCFM (425 SLPM) generator which delivers 1,000 Btu/hr. (252 Kcal/hr.) can be installed. If more cooling is needed, the 30 SCFM (850 SLPM) generator can be installed for up to 2,000 Btu/hr. (504 Kcal/hr.).

Electronic components stay cool
during a soldering operation.

EXAIR Videos
	Static Eliminators A new technology solution to the old problem of static build-up. EXAIR Static Eliminators maximize ionized airflow while minimizing compressed air consumption. A small amount of compressed air is used to entrain a high volume of surrounding air. This combined stream is ionized by an emitter point (or points) and delivered to the charged surface. Static is neutralized from distances up to 20 feet (6.1m) away. Thus, EXAIR Static Eliminators work effectively in spite of obstructions, three dimensional configurations, web "rippling", etc.

	Porous vs. Non-Pourous E-Vac Vacuum Generators E-Vac compressed air powered vacuum pumps provide instantaneous response and are most commonly used for pick and place operations. These single stage vacuum pumps are a low cost venturi available in a variety of sizes and flows along with a selection of suction cups suitable for a wide range of applications. Models for porous and non-porous applications are available. This video can help to select the appropriate style for your applicaiton.

	Reversible Drum Vac EXAIR's compressed air operated Reversible Drum Vac System attaches quickly to any closed head 30 or 55 gallon (45 imperial gallon/205 liter) drum. Its high powered vacuum fills the drum in less than two minutes. With the simple turn of a knob, the same stainless steel pump quickly empties the drum. Coolant sumps can be easily refilled, floor spills vacuumed, or contaminated liquids transferred to filtration tanks in minutes. The flow rate in and out of the drum can be controlled with the knob, making it ideal for dispensing liquids.

	Chip Vac EXAIR's Chip Vac picks up dry or wet chips and delivers them directly to an ordinary 55 gallon open-top (45 imperial gallon/205 liter) drum. The Chip Vac is used to clean chips from fixtures, floors and work surfaces of machining centers, lathes, saws, mills and other industrial equipment. The powerful suction is ideal for fast and efficient cleaning.

	Cabinet Cooler Systems EXAIR Cabinet Coolers are a low cost, reliable way to cool and purge electronic control panels. EXAIR Cabinet Coolers incorporate a vortex tube to produce cold air from compressed air - with no moving parts. The compact Cabinet Cooler can be installed in minutes through a standard electrical knockout. NEMA 12, 4 and 4X Cabinet Coolers that match the NEMA rating of the enclosure are available in many cooling capacities for large and small control panels.

	Chip Trapper The new Chip Trapper (patent pending) offers a fast, easy way to clean chips, swarf and shavings out of used coolants and other liquids. The Chip Trapper vacuums the coolant or liquid that is filled with debris and traps all the solids in a reusable filter bag. Only the liquid pumps back out. It is ideal for use on machines with sumps, parts washers, tanks and storage containers of contaminated liquids.

	Cold Gun Aircoolant System EXAIR’s Cold Gun makes it possible to replace messy mist systems and improve dry machining operations using clean, cold air! It’s a new solution to an old problem. Heat build up on dry machining operations reduces tool life and machining rates. The Cold Gun Aircoolant System produces a stream of clean, cold air at 50°F (28°C) below supply air temperature. Operation is quiet and there are no moving parts to wear out. It will remove heat to prolong tool life and increase productivity on machining operations when liquid coolants cannot be used.
	Line Vac Air Conveyors EXAIR's compressed air operated Line Vac connects to standard hose or tube to create a powerful in-line conveyor. The compact design features large throat diameters for maximum throughput capacity. Eleven sizes in aluminum and ten sizes in stainless steel are suited to a wide variety of transfer applications.
