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

表格
| Item | Compact Type | Conventional Type |
|---|---|---|
| Structure | Highly integrated, unified base | Split type, separate installation |
| Floor space | Small (40%–65% reduction) | Large, requiring extra space |
| Transmission | Mainly direct drive, high efficiency | Belt / direct drive, slightly lower efficiency |
| Noise | 75–85 dB | 85–95 dB |
| Installation | Ready for use, no foundation bolts | Requires assembly and fixed foundation |
| Application | Narrow spaces, modularization | Sufficient space, conventional working conditions |
IV. Typical Applications
Mobile / underground applications: Vehicle‑mounted equipment, tunnel ventilation, ship compartments
Wastewater treatment: Containerized / small‑scale aeration, mobile aeration equipment
Pneumatic conveying: Powder, grain and chemical material conveying in workshops
Aquaculture: High‑density oxygenation, vehicle‑mounted / ship‑mounted oxygen supply
Environmental protection / chemical industry: Desulfurization and denitrification, small‑scale chemical process air supply
