What is the difference between a Roots blower and a Turbo blower?
TURBO BLOWER
ROOTS BLOWER
Engineered to provide Class 0 oil-free air up to approximately 15 psig, a positive displacement blower is specifically designed with rotary lobe technology. These machines, often air-cooled and lacking an aftercooler, exhibit resilience across diverse flows and operating conditions. Their seamless integration is facilitated by easy installation, commissioning, and initiation through local plant resources.
In numerous rental scenarios, opting for a positive displacement blower with a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) proves optimal, offering versatility, energy efficiency, and straightforward installation and operation, particularly for oil-free applications below the 15 psig threshold.
Roots blowers deliver a relatively constant volume of air at varying pressures. In contrast, a turbo blower (centrifugal blower) uses a high-speed impeller to impart velocity to air or gas.
Considerations When Choosing PD Blower Packages
- Application
- Energy efficiency
- Noise reduction
- Required airflow volume
- Operating pressure
- Altitude and temperature
To prevent premature failure, it’s important to use the right lubricant and meet equipment specifications. High-performance lubricants can extend the lifespan of bearings and gears.
