Frequently Asked Questions
Air Cleaning Blowers™ (ACBs) are different from traditional filter-based systems, so naturally there are questions. Below are the most common ones we get.
What are Air Cleaning Blowers™ (ACBs)?
Air Cleaning Blowers are industrial blowers that remove debris — both solids and liquids — from air without using filter elements or other filter media.
How do Air Cleaning Blowers™ work?
ACBs use particle momentum to separate debris from the airstream. Particles and liquids are ejected from the housing, while cleaned air continues through the system.
Do Air Cleaning Blowers™ use filters at all?
No. ACBs operate without filter media, eliminating clogging, pressure drop, and filter replacement.
Do ACBs replace filters completely?
In most applications, yes. ACBs are designed to eliminate the need for traditional filter elements.
Do Air Cleaning Blowers™ clog over time?
No. Because debris is ejected rather than collected, airflow remains stable and performance does not degrade due to clogging.
What types of debris can ACBs remove?
No. Because debris is ejected rather than collected, airflow remains stable and performance does not degrade due to clogging.
How effective are Air Cleaning Blowers™?
ACBs remove the majority of larger particles (above ~10 microns) and reduce smaller particle loads without restricting airflow.
Where are Air Cleaning Blowers™ typically used?
They are used in industrial facilities, mining operations, agriculture, food processing, equipment enclosures, and other environments where clean air is needed without filters.
Are Air Cleaning Blowers™ difficult to install?
No. Installation is straightforward and similar to standard industrial blowers. No special training is required.
Do ACBs require maintenance?
Maintenance is minimal compared to filter-based systems, since there are no filters to replace or clean.
Do Air Cleaning Blowers™ handle moisture or liquids?
Yes. ACBs are designed to remove both solid particles and liquids from the airstream.
Are Air Cleaning Blowers™ patented?
Yes. ACBs are protected by multiple issued utility patents, with additional patents pending.
