Finnish translation:puhallin
Explanation:
Esim. optisten laitteiden puhdistuksessa käytetään yksinkertaisesti puhallinta.

Tecnofocusin sivuilta:
"Hyvässä puhaltimessa ei ole harjaa, joka likaantuessaan vain levittää linssien rapaa ja naarmuttaa pintaa. Puhaltimella ei pidä koskea puhdistettavaan pintaan."

disagree  Edipro Finland: fan jet = ohivirtausmoottori ( aircraft jet engine type )

  -> Finnair's glossary translates ohivirtausmoottori as bypass engine or turbofan. The context doesn't seem to suggest the use of ohivirtausmoottori but I may be wrong.
