Roots Blowers

Roots Blowers

Special devices called blowers work mostly with the help of an electric motor. It plays a key role in providing low pressure air directly needed by any medium or process. Depending on the content of the method or depending on the type of connection, it is possible to encounter these devices in many points of the industry. It is especially used in every area where high air flow is required.

Blowers are used for a long time and have a durable structure. It is mostly encountered with centrifugal blower models. In addition, it is necessary to open a special bracket for roots blowers as well as devices that adopt the centrifuge principle among blower types. Oil filled vacuum pumps can function similarly. Although special productions come into play depending on the demand, the most ideal blower should be selected according to the application type or need.

What is Roots Blower?

A standard blower works with the motion of the fan or lobe connected to the motor shaft by the electric motor. Roots blowers are of course not as preferred as centrifugal blowers, but they are considered an important type. Roots blower makes a difference compared to other types with its belt / pulley principle. In addition, it is not affected by pressure changes in a speed-oriented manner. These blowers, which also have a silent operation feature, have a steel body, both parts of which are oiled cast. As it is known, some points should be taken into consideration in the selection process in order for the blowers to work efficiently. Choosing the right blower directly affects efficiency and performance.

Roots blowers have production techniques that adopt the latest technology above all. This special type, which attracts attention with its long bearing life, has a dynamically balanced lobe design. All this neat design creates a trouble-free work surface. Blower type electricity called "Roots blower"

It is coupled to its motors with belt and pulley. On the other hand, very successful results are obtained in sound insulation.

Roots Blower Working Principle

As is known, there are two basic principles of air compression. One of these principles is the principle expressed as positive displacement compression. There are many compressors in this form. Roots blowers generally provide a low pressure air flow of up to 1 bar. Known as the Roots type, blowers do not have internal compression and are also a type of valve-free displacement compressor.

As the compression chamber comes into contact with the outlet port, it is seen that the compressed air flows back into the casing. Subsequently, additional compression occurs when the volume of the compression chamber is constantly reduced by rotation. Roots blowers are known to be used mostly as vacuum pumps. In addition, roots blowers can be used actively in pneumatic conveying applications and aeration processes in water & wastewater applications.
