Airflow Vector

Airflow Vector designs, manufactures and sells roto-moulded products for the last 15 years. Our extensive experience allows us to create product as varied as portable toilets, weather proof boxes and snorkels. 
 
We have been selling snorkels nationally and internationally for 15 years, and manufacturing them for the past 13 years. During that time we have undertaken a comprehensive study program into Mould Design & Mould Making, using the latest in Computer Aided Design and where necessary even using Immation Technology. Our facilities now allows us to individually design for any application and to computer simulate both the manufacturing phase and test the application of the design shapes, i.e. in the case of snorkel design airflow characteristics.
Our expertise in this field of application is coupled with our undertanding of air flow. Our recent models provide a new technic called Cold Air Induction provided by our propriatory ACAIS system
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 

 
A combustion engine needs air and fuel to operate. The more air and oxygen flow into the intake manifold, the more efficient is the combustion.
 
The ACAIS harvests fresh air at roof level where it is the least disturbed.  This air contains less contaminant and is cooler than air absorbed from the engine bay. When the air is cooler, it contains more oxygen.
Modern vehicles are fitted with engine management systems; these are computers which measure accurately in real-time all inputs available to the engine to improve its efficiency.  Consequently, the availability of cooler air inflow results in more power and torque.
 

Three main parts constitute an ACAIS: a “hat” we call the “Air Ram”, a Snorkel tube we call the “Body” and an air filter called the PACC. The three parts are designed to complement each other in their efficiency.

COLD AIR INDUCTION EFFECT

This effect improves fuel efficiency while improving also engine power.  The snorkel is over sized to provide a air storage. Consequently, the air is pressurised, available immediatly for the engine.
