Vortex® Regenerative Blowers vs PD Blowers
Single stage regenerative blowers move air in a non-positive displacement fashion. They are small and require little maintenance and are well-suited to a wide variety of applications.
The Vortex line of regenerative blowers are ideal for pressure ranges between 1.5 – 4psi. Compared to positive displacement blowers they are more compact, lightweight and quieter.
Vortex Regenerative Blower Applications
The Vortex regenerative, side channel blowers have a compact footprint and provide continuous duty, non-pulsating, oil-free airblow. These low-maintenance blowers provide quiet operation and reliable, energy-efficient performance that is well-suited to a large range of applications:
- Combustion air
