What Fox Venturi Products does

Fox Venturi Products is a privately held US manufacturer of engineered venturi-based fluid handling equipment, founded in 1961 by Zola Fox and headquartered in Dover, New Jersey. The company designs and produces eductors, ejectors, and venturi flow controls that exploit the Venturi Effect (based on Bernoulli's Equation) to move, compress, or pump fluids and to pneumatically convey bulk solids - all without moving parts in the eductor body itself. Its product portfolio spans six core categories: solids conveying eductor systems, air/gas/steam ejectors (including multi-stage vacuum systems), liquid eductors, mini-eductors for gas sampling, liquid/solid slurry eductors (including sanitary CIP variants), and venturi flow controls (cavitating venturies, sonic chokes, and ΔP flowmeters). Line sizes range from 1/4 inch to 42 inches, operating temperatures from -350°F to 2000°F, and materials from carbon and stainless steel to exotic alloys and replaceable ceramic liners for abrasive service.

All venturies under 5 inch line size are machined from bar stock in-house at the Dover, NJ facility using complete CNC machining and welding capabilities, a deliberate choice to retain control over geometry, quality, and delivery. The company supplements its hardware with an engineering consulting practice offering CFD analysis, feasibility studies, troubleshooting, system optimization, and reverse engineering of obsolete equipment, leveraging 130+ years of combined internal venturi design experience. Customers span power generation and waste-to-energy, cement, chemical processing, mining, food and beverage, pharmaceutical, water and wastewater treatment, plastics compounding, and aerospace/research applications, with a documented installed base of 4,000+ installations since 1964 and thousands of mini-eductor analyzer applications dating to the 1960s.

Fox operates a direct B2B sales model with no channel intermediaries. Pricing is entirely quote-based with no public disclosure, supported by product-specific online data sheets, engineer-staffed phone lines (973-328-1011), and email inquiry ([email protected]) with 2-3 hour response times for technical questions. Revenue derives from one-time equipment sales, replacement parts, and engineering services. Stock units can ship in 2 days to 2 weeks while custom-engineered units carry 4-8 week lead times with rush options. The company maintains global reach, with installations in hundreds of plants across multiple continents.
