Manufactured by Kennametal, Blast Ninja™ nozzles are a new generation of nozzles designed to increase production rates and help decrease hazardous noise.
According to the manufacturer, in certain conditions, Blast Ninja™ nozzles have been shown to increase production rates compared with conventional venturi nozzles, delivering additional value to the blast operator and business.
Key Features
- Can reduce nozzle air exit velocity and sound pressure level
- Maintains particle velocity to maintain equal abrasive power
- Can help reduce noise levels by up to 17 dB depending on conditions and other factors
- Can increase safe working exposure up to four hours (from just 15 minutes)
- Can contribute towards delivering the criteria under HSE for a non-hazardous work zone
How it Functions: The Technology Behind the Nozzle The Blast Ninja represents a cutting-edge abrasive blast nozzle that notably diminishes noise exposure at its origin. Its exclusive technology draws on extensive aero-acoustic research, conducted in collaboration with the U.S. Air Force and the Office of Naval Research, which was originally aimed at reducing jet engine noise.
By preserving particle velocity while decreasing nozzle air exit velocity, the Blast Ninja effectively minimizes noise generation at its source, all the while maintaining optimal blasting productivity. Its manufacturer conducted years of meticulous fluid dynamic modeling, laboratory analyses, field trials, and thorough operator assessments across various conditions to develop the ultimate Blast Ninja™ product.
Blast Ninja™ nozzles set the new standard in performance, worker safety, and productivity.
