Roots Flo Blower

Heavy-duty, versatile, compact Rotary Blower

This heavy-duty rotary unit is a compact design engineered for reliable pneumatic conveying of grain and similar products.

  • Vacuums to 16” Hg (539 mbar)
  • Pressure to 15 psig (1034 mbar)
  • This unit is your drop in replacement solution

Key Features

  • Cast iron housing per ASTM A-48 Class 30B.
  • Shaft sleeves are cast iron ASTM A-48 and hardened.
  • Headplates are per ASTM A-48 Class 30B.
  • Splash lubricated at both ends.
  • Top drive horizontal flow.
  • Left hand or right hand drive with vertical flow.

Benefits

  • Reliable Pneumatic Conveying: Engineered for dependable conveying of grain and similar products.
  • Robust Construction: Features a ribbed cast iron casing and rigid headplates for durability.
  • Efficient Operation: Equipped with carburized and ground alloy steel spur timing gears and ductile iron impellers for tough continuous operations.
  • Versatile Installation: Detachable rugged steel mounting feet allow for easy adaptation to vertical or horizontal installation requirements.
  • Effective Lubrication: Splash lubrication from oversized oil reservoirs ensures smooth operation and extends bearing and gear life.
  • High-Quality Components: Impellers are machined and dynamically balanced ductile iron with integral shafts, bearings are extra capacity cylindrical roller type, and gears are tough spur type SAI 8620 steel carburized and ground for continuous operations.
  • Seal Reliability: Main air seals are piston ring type to minimize leakage, while bearing and drive shaft oil seals are Viton lip, all designed for severe duty applications.
