6
What is a Blower?
  • High volume
  • Low pressure (typically 21)
  • Positive-displacement
  • Oil-free
  • Internally gas cooled

7
What is a Blower?
Blower operating principle
8
Tri-Lobe Versus Two-Lobe
  • 120 design
  • Greatly reduced pulsation levels
  • Quieter operation
  • Reduced rotor deflection
  • Bi-directional rotation
  • In smaller displacement models, 180 design is
    more resistant to contamination

9
Tri-Lobe Versus Two-Lobe
Six pockets of air per revolution
Relief channel allows internal and discharge
pressure to equalize
95 pulsation cancellation inside the blower
Tri-lobe relief channel
10
Tri-Lobe Versus Two-Lobe
1 Revolution
