It’s that time of year again for EXAIR‘s Cold Gun Promotion (online only). From November 1st 2024 through to the end of the year, you can receive a Dual Point Hose Kit for free with the purchase of our promotional Cold Gun System w/ Single Point Hose Kit or promotional High Power Cold Gun System w/ Single Point Hose Kit. These hose kits come with standard point tips or 1″ fan tips. The dual point kit gives you the ability to provide cooling to more than one side of large diameter cutters and components that need cooling.
Cold Guns Systems
So, what’s so great about EXAIR’s Cold Gun? If you’re looking for a way to extend the life of your tools by keeping them cool without the mess that can be left when using a coolant, then our Cold Gun is the perfect solution. When supplied with a source of compressed air, the Cold Gun and High Power Cold Gun produces a stream of clean, cold air that is 50°F below your compressed air supply temperature. In addition to this, the Cold Gun is very quiet at only 70dBA and has no moving parts to wear out. Just supply it with clean, dry compressed air, and it will run maintenance free for many years!
With a magnetic base, the Cold Gun is easy to install and mount. The Cold Gun is an ideal alternative to messy and expensive coolant mist systems. It eliminates the cost of purchase and disposal of cutting fluids as well as worker related health problems from breathing airborne coolant or slipping on wet floors. Replacing a coolant-based system also eliminates the need for secondary cleaning operations after milling or drilling.

EXAIR‘s Cabinet Coolers are a low-cost and reliable way to cool and purge your electrical panels. They incorporate our Vortex Tubes to produce cold air from compressed air. With no moving parts, our Cabinet Coolers can run maintenance free for many years.
When selecting which Cabinet Cooler is right for your application, there are a few things for you to consider:
First, is your cabinet in a hazardous location? We have HazLoc Cabinet Cooler models that are rated for UL Classified areas, including Class I Div 1, Groups A, B, C, and D; Class II Div 1, Groups E, F, and G; and Class III; as well as ATEX rated units that are approved for use in Zones 2 and 22. All of our hazardous location Cabinet Cooler Systems need to be used in conjunction with a purged and pressurized control system.
From right to left: Small NEMA 12, Large NEMA 12, Large NEMA 4X
After this you will need to determine what NEMA integrity your enclosure requires. We have NEMA 12(IP54) models, which are dust and oil tight. These are ideal for most industrial environments where no liquids or corrosives are present. Our NEMA 4(IP66) options can be used inside and outside, and are splash resistant as well as dust tight and oil tight. The low-pressure relief valve will ensure the integrity of the NEMA 4 enclosure is maintained. Finally, our NEMA 4X(IP66) option offers all the same protection as the NEMA 4X, but is constructed of stainless steel for food service and corrosive environments.
Next, you need to decide if you need continuous operation or thermostat control. The thermostat control systems are the most efficient way to operate a Cabinet Cooler. They save on compressed air by only activating the cooler only when the internal temperatures approach critical levels. The standard thermostat control systems include an adjustable thermostat factory set at 95°F. We also have our Electronic Temperature Control (ETC), which allows for precise temperature control that can be adjusted with the touch of a button.
ETC Electronic Temperature Control can be used in a wide variety of applications.
Finally, you will need to calculate the heat load to determine the cooling capacity. We have a calculator on our website that can help with this. However, if you speak to any of our Application Engineers, we can perform these calculations for you. If you would like to discuss your Cabinet Cooler application, feel free to give us a call!
A compressed air operated air gun is a commonly used tool in many industries. There are many options available through the many catalogs and industrial supply companies. Most inexpensive options will have triggers or other parts that will frequently wear out or break. They will also have performance similar to an open pipe, where they have an open hole that simply blows a lot of compressed air. This leads to high air consumption costs, as well as high noise levels; they can also be dangerous if the opening is dead-ended at high pressures.
EXAIR has several quiet and efficient Safety Air Guns, and with a large array of nozzles to choose from, we likely have the perfect solution for whatever your needs are. If you require more force for use in a rugged industrial environment, then our Heavy Duty Safety Air Gun may be the right option for you.
EXAIR Heavy Duty Safety Air Gun Benefits
Our Heavy Duty Safety Air Gun has a 3/8 NPT air inlet, which is larger than most other Safety Air Guns. This allows for higher force and flow values. It also comes with a durable cast aluminum body and ergonomic composite rubber grip. The wide curved trigger allows for continuous use for hours without operators experiencing fatigue.
As with all of EXAIR’s Safety Air Guns, the Heavy Duty Safety Air Gun takes advantage of our engineered Air Nozzles, ensuring that you remain OSHA compliant on both dead-end pressure and noise levels, while still delivering on force. We have several different length extensions, as well as chip shields, to customize the Heavy Duty Air Gun.
For any customers in the US or Canada, an order placed before September 30th, 2024 will receive a free Model 1126 1″ Flat Super Air Nozzle. If you would like to discuss how EXAIR’s Heavy Duty Air Gun, or any of our other Safety Air Guns can help in your application, feel free to give us a call.
