Our Duplex Units can Double the Flow
A turbo blower, also known as a turbine blower uses an impeller to compress air at high speeds. Turbo blowers are designed to work at constant pressure, delivering compressed air without pulsations, and their performance depends on external ambient conditions.
Turbo blowers have peak efficiency within a narrow range and are more dependent on pressure and flow rate than positive displacement compressors. Magnetic-bearing turbo blowers achieve an isentropic efficiency of between 60 and 78 percent.
High-speed turbo blowers optimize performance by integrating a single-stage centrifugal blower with advanced energy management systems. This innovative pairing creates a compact and efficient solution tailored for both wastewater and general industrial applications, ensuring superior efficiency.
These blowers leverage aerodynamic air-foil bearings, diverging from conventional ball bearing systems. Air-foil bearings harness the motor’s high rotational speeds to generate a pressurized air film around the bearing shaft, eliminating any contact between the shaft and the bearing housing.
By sidestepping the maintenance-intensive requirements of ball bearing systems, air-foil bearings enhance performance while minimizing downtime. This design innovation mitigates the need for frequent servicing and lubrication, maximizing operational efficiency.
