What is an AirSweep?
An AirSweep is a nozzle made of either carbon steel or stainless steel (304 or 316) with one moving part: the piston. This nozzle is dust-tight and quickly recloses and reseals after firing. The nozzle design (U.S. Patent 6,237,893) ensures that fines and feedback materials are locked out, preventing clogging and jamming.
A typical AirSweep system consists of strategically located Airsweeps, high-flow solenoid valves, an electronic sequence controller, and an air receiver. The system can operate independently or easily integrate with other equipment or automation systems. Based on flow requirements, the system is set to sequentially pulse bursts of high-velocity air along the container wall. Each pulse dislodges up to 8 feet in diameter of material, promoting steady outflow. AirSweeps eliminate bridging, ratholes, and material handling build-up.
Each nozzle emits a high-pressure, high-volume, 360-degree burst of compressed air to lift and sweep stalled material back into the flow stream, clearing the way for higher factory and material handling efficiency. Based on your needs, our engineers will determine the size and quantity of Airsweeps required, depending on the vessel and material.

USDA Accepted Airsweeps
​USDA-Accepted Airsweeps: The Sanitary Solution
Keep your production area clean and efficient with our USDA-Accepted Airsweeps. They effectively eliminate ratholes, bridging, and material buildup within hoppers and bins.
Designed with sanitation in mind:
  • Fabricated according to strict sanitary design principles.
  • Flanged connections for quick and easy installation and removal.
  • Simple hand-tool disassembly for thorough cleaning.
  • All surfaces are resistant to corrosive products and harsh cleaning chemicals.
  • Constructed from high-grade 316 stainless steel for durability and long service life.
  • Energy-efficient operation: Utilizes plant air for a cost-effective and environmentally friendly solution.

Tri-Clamp Tri-Clamp
Ideal for applications requiring easy installation and removal for cleaning or sanitation.
AirSweep Systems' material flow technology prevents and eliminates hang-ups and blockages in silos, bins, hoppers, chutes, and more with coordinated 360° bursts of compressed air or gas. The sequenced pulsing of strategically positioned AirSweep units activates bulk material, promoting a first-in, first-out controlled flow.

Straight Shooter 
Designed for applications where a focused column of activation energy is required to reach and activate material that is not accessible by the standard AirSweep 360-degree pulse pattern. The Straight Shooter is available in all standard AirSweep sizes (3/4″, 1-1/2″, and 2″) and in USDA-accepted models.​

The DAZIC® line of electromechanical, electronic and inductive proximity speed switches indicate or control the rotary motion when attached to equipment.
The speed switches can be interlocked as part of a material handling system to ensure that if one machine fails, the entire operation will stop, avoiding an expensive and time-consuming pile-up of material.
These devices are shaft or pulse driven and UL-approved.

DAZIC® Zero Speed Switch applications include:
  • Actuate a signal or alarm device
  • Break a circuit to a motor
  • Make a circuit to start auxiliary equipment
  • Make or break a circuit to other electrical devices
  • Signal a control station or PLC
When driven from a critical shaft, a Zero Speed Switch will engage when a system’s normal operating speed:
  • Stops due to mechanical failure
  • Slows down due to overload
  • Changes due to normal machine cycling
  • Begins to over-speed
  • Reverses rotation
Most of our Speed Switch devices are available for shipment the same or next day an order is received. Contact us for more information.
