Iwata WindJet1 Air Nozzle (WINDJET1)

The Iwata WindJet1 Air Nozzle (WINDJET1) is engineered to significantly accelerate the drying of water-based paints, particularly effective for small spot repairs and waterborne basecoats. Its design creates an air entrainment stream that efficiently shears across painted surfaces, ensuring rapid and uniform drying. This air nozzle operates with a remarkably lower noise level compared to many other waterborne blowers, enhancing the work environment. Sold as the nozzle only, it offers painters the flexibility to attach their own air nipple or air regulator, ensuring convenient portability and ease of use. The recessed design of the orifices provides protection against external damage, contributing to the product's longevity and consistent performance. Utilizing this nozzle can help reduce compressed air usage while improving the overall efficiency of blow-off operations.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS:

• Accelerated drying: Rapidly reduces waterborne paint drying times using air entrainment for spot repairs and basecoats.
• Low noise output: Operates more quietly than most conventional waterborne blowers, improving working conditions.
• Flexible configuration: Sold as nozzle only, allowing users to attach their preferred air nipple or regulator.
• Recessed orifices: Protects the nozzle from external damage, maintaining performance over time.
• Efficient air usage: Reduces compressed air consumption, enhancing overall cost-efficiency.

SPECIFICATIONS:

• Brand: Iwata (ANEST IWATA)
• Model Number: WINDJET1 (ASETWINDJET1)
• CFM Usage: 8.9 CFM @ 30 PSI
• Rated PSI: Up to 90 PSI
• Inlet Port: 1/4" FPT (Female Pipe Thread)

HOW TO USE:

1. Attach Air Connection: Securely thread your preferred 1/4" air nipple or air regulator onto the 1/4" FPT inlet port of the WindJet1 Air Nozzle.
2. Connect to Air Supply: Connect the assembled nozzle to a compressed air line. Ensure your compressor can supply at least 30 PSI, up to a maximum of 90 PSI.
3. Adjust Air Pressure (Optional): If using an air regulator, adjust the air pressure to achieve optimal airflow for your specific drying task. A good starting point is 30 PSI.
4. Target Painted Surface: Hold the nozzle a short distance from the water-based painted surface you wish to dry.
5. Apply Airflow: Direct the airflow across the painted area in a steady, sweeping motion. The nozzle is designed to create a shearing effect for rapid moisture removal.
6. Monitor Drying: Continue applying airflow until the waterborne basecoat or paint is dry to the touch, ensuring uniform drying across the entire repair area.
7. Disconnect: When finished, disconnect the nozzle from the air supply.

BENEFITS OF USING IWATA WINDJET1 AIR NOZZLE (WINDJET1):

• Accelerated drying times: Significantly reduces the time required for waterborne paints to dry, boosting productivity in repair tasks.
• Improved paint finish: Promotes rapid moisture removal, which can lead to a smoother and more consistent final paint finish by preventing water spots or runs.
• Enhanced user comfort: Operates at a lower noise level compared to many traditional drying blowers, creating a more pleasant work environment.
• Cost-effective operation: Its efficient air usage helps in potentially lowering compressed air consumption, contributing to operational savings over time.
• Optimized for waterborne paints: Specifically designed to work effectively with waterborne basecoats, addressing their unique drying characteristics.

FEATURES:

• Compact & Portable Design: Allows for easy handling and transport around the work area, providing flexibility for various repair locations.
• Focused Air Stream Geometry: Engineered to create an air entrainment effect that efficiently moves across the surface for uniform drying.
• Installer-Friendly Inlet: Features a standard 1/4" FPT inlet for broad compatibility with common air fittings.
• Controlled Air Distribution: Provides a consistent and even spread of air across the target area, minimizing uneven drying.
