Compact Roots Blower

News 14.06.2022

A compact Roots blower is a highly integrated and structurally compact Roots blower. Its core feature is that the main unit, motor, valves, silencers and other components are pre‑assembled on a unified base, specially designed for space‑constrained scenarios.

I. Core Structure and Features

High Integration

  • Integrated unit: The blower main body, motor, inlet/outlet silencers, safety valve, check valve, filter, pressure gauge, flexible connector and vibration isolator are all integrated on a common base.
  • Optimized layout: Mostly arranged in vertical stacking or direct‑drive compact configuration, with volume reduced by 30%–50% and floor space saved by about 40%–65% compared with conventional models.

Transmission and Performance

  • Drive: Mostly direct drive (motor‑coupling‑blower), eliminating belts, with transmission efficiency ≥95%, lower energy consumption and lower noise.
  • Rotor: Three-lobe or twisted-lobe profile, featuring small air pulsation, stable operation and noise level of 75–85 dB.
  • Seal: Mostly oil‑free seals, ensuring clean, oil‑free conveyed gas.

Installation and Maintenance

  • Easy installation: No foundation bolts required; only pipeline connection and power supply are needed on site.
  • Simple maintenance: Closed gearbox, no belt replacement required; routine maintenance mainly involves regular oil replacement.

II. Main Technical Parameters (Reference)

  • Flow rate: 0.45–100.6 m³/min
  • Pressure boost: 9.8–98 kPa (medium and low pressure)
  • Diameter: Approx. 80–200 mm
  • Motor power: 5.5–110 kW
