Durable and Easy-to-Clean Air Knife Assembly and Air Nozzle Mounting Brackets
Effortless installation adjustment, cleaning, and disassembly
Built with electro-plated aluminum and stainless steel, Sonic Air Systems air knife and nozzle mounting brackets offer reliable durability for prolonged applications. Versatile features like quick-release handles allow operators to quickly modify air knife angles and mounting distance, are easy to disassemble and clean, and are compatible with all Sonic Air Systems blower-driven air knives.
Enhancing Application Versatility with Smart Mounting Design
An air knife assembly and air nozzle mounting bracket are essential to how air moves, ensuring precision, stability, and adaptability in high-performance drying, blow-off, or cooling systems. These mounting systems act as the structural backbone, keeping air delivery tools securely positioned exactly where they're needed for optimal performance.
Engineered for versatility, the assemblies are adjustable, easy to install, and compatible with a wide range of Sonic Air equipment. Whether you’re working in a bottling plant, food processing line, or electronics facility, our air knife assembly enables fine-tuned alignment and fast repositioning to meet changing production demands. Without a dependable mounting solution, even the most powerful air knives or nozzles can’t perform to their full potential.
Precision, Power, and Practical Design
- Modular Bracket Design: Each assembly is modular, allowing operators to reposition or reconfigure air knives and nozzles easily. This setup supports quick changes without specialized tools or extra parts.
- Easy to Disassemble: All assemblies are engineered for quick, tool-free disassembly. This makes routine cleaning and maintenance simple—essential for industries with strict hygiene or maintenance protocols.
- Versatile Compatibility Platform: Designed to integrate with all Sonic air knives and nozzles, the mounts support a wide range of blower setups. This versatility simplifies equipment upgrades and system changes.
- Faster Maintenance and Line Changeovers: Quick adjustability and simple reconfiguration reduce downtime. Operators can shift setups without breaking out tools or waiting on maintenance crews.
- Effortless Cleaning for Hygienic and High-Sensitivity Settings: Designed for fast, tool-free disassembly, these mounts allow easy access for thorough cleaning. Ideal for food, pharmaceutical, and other sensitive environments, they help reduce contamination risks and support strict sanitation standards while keeping your equipment running efficiently.
- Adaptability Across Multiple Applications: From packaging to electronics, the flexible mount design fits your system, not the other way around. This makes it ideal for custom lines or evolving production demands.
How to Select the Right Industrial Diverter Valve
Determining the best valve for your system depends on balancing air volume, pressure, and material characteristics. When these factors align, you achieve smoother performance, higher efficiency, and long-term reliability. The ideal configuration not only maintains consistent airflow and minimizes pressure loss but also enhances energy efficiency across continuous production cycles.
Common Types of Diverter Valves
- Flap Type Diverter: Simple, cost-effective valve ideal for low- to medium-pressure systems handling powders, pellets, or airflows requiring gentle redirection.
- Plug (Rotor) Diverter: Designed for continuous-duty applications, offering smooth switching between lines with minimal leakage.
Slide or Slideflex Diverter: Provides fast, tight-sealing transitions for high-pressure or high-temperature processes where precision airflow management is essential.
Key Technical Considerations
When specifying an industrial air diverter valve, consider the following engineering factors to ensure long-term reliability:
- Material Compatibility: Choose materials suited to your process—aluminum for lightweight efficiency, stainless steel for hygienic or corrosive environments, or coated alloys for chemical resistance.
- Actuation & Automation: Sonic offers manual, pneumatic, or automated actuation to integrate with PLC or sensor-driven systems for instant airflow control.
Sealing & Maintenance: Valves are designed with precision-fit components and replaceable seals to maintain efficiency and reduce downtime during maintenance intervals.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Sonic butterfly valves can operate in conjunction with a VFD for blower speed control; however, they can also function as the sole airflow control device. As a low-cost alternative to a VFD, the butterfly valve allows operators to manually fine-tune air velocity and pressure, setting the optimum airflow level during the initial system setup without relying on expensive electronic controls.
The Sonic Y-Verter™ is a mechanical alternative to Variable Frequency Drive motor controllers traditionally used in blower and air knife systems. It allows rapid, reliable airflow redirection between system branches without changing motor speed, reducing complexity and maintenance requirements compared to VFD-based systems.
A Y-Verter™ is particularly effective when using standard 3,600 RPM, 60 Hz motors where air control needs can be met through mechanical redirection rather than motor speed modulation. While certain high-speed blower motors (up to 20,000 RPM) may require VFDs with output frequencies up to 330 Hz, many air knife applications can achieve equal or better airflow management with the simpler, more durable Y-Verter™ system.
Yes. They can be integrated with most industrial blowers or pneumatic systems, and custom configurations are available for unique operating conditions.
