RAM-VJ (Vacuum/Whispair) Rotary Positive Blower

Heavy-duty, versatile, bi lobe, water sealed vacuum blower with reduced noise

ROOTS® RAM Series vacuum blower featuring water injection to achieve deeper vacuum and WHISPAIR™ technology to reduce noise and pressure pulsations emitted from the blower.

  • Vacuum to 24” Hg (813 mbar)
  • Flows to 3550 cfm (6030 m3/hr)

Key Features

  • Water injection to achieve deeper vacuum levels.
  • Detachable steel mounting feet.
  • Alloy steel timing gears.
  • Cylindrical roller bearings.
  • Piston ring air seals.
  • Lip-type, hydrodynamic drive shaft seal.
  • Splash lubricated spur timing gears and drive end bearings.

Benefits

  • Inlet Spray Nozzle and Seal Water Flow Meter: Supplied for water injection to enhance performance and achieve a deeper vacuum.
  • Advanced Noise Reduction: RAM WHISPAIR rotary blowers utilize integral-shaft ductile iron impellers and a proprietary WHISPAIR jet to control pressure equalization and reduce noise, pressure pulsation and power loss.
  • Heavy-Duty Construction: RAM rotary blowers feature integral-shaft ductile iron impellers with an involute profile, grey iron headplates, and a rigid one-piece casing.
  • Efficient Sealing Mechanisms: Piston rings and lip-type oil seals minimize air leakage and prevent lubricant from entering the air chamber, with a hydrodynamic seal on the drive shaft preventing oil leaks.
  • Efficient Lubrication: Carburized and ground alloy steel spur timing gears are splash lubricated at both ends, with piston rings and lip-type oil seals preventing air leakage and lubricant entry into the air chamber.
  • Versatile Mounting Options: Detachable steel mounting feet allow easy adaptation to vertical or horizontal installation requirements, with extended shafts available for different outlet configurations.
  • Warranty Coverage: A warranty period of Twenty-Four months from date of original unit start-up or 30 months from date of original shipment is provided.
