A pressure chamber is provided for a blown film extrusion apparatus having (i) a die head for extruding a tubular polymer bubble, and (ii) a cooling assembly downstream of the die head for receiving the bubble and applying a cooling fluid to the bubble. The pressure chamber includes an upstream end wall sealed around the die head outlet, and extending outward from the seal; a side wall movable between a closed position for controlling air flow from a chamber volume surrounding the bubble to the atmosphere, and an open position for permitting air flow from the chamber volume to the atmosphere. The upstream end wall has an inlet for receiving air from an air supply, and an outlet in fluid communication with the inlet and configured to direct the air into the chamber volume to pressurize the chamber volume when the side wall is in the closed position. |
