RGS-VJ (Whispair) Gas Blower

Heavy-duty water-sealed vacuum exhausters

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

  • Vacuums to 24” Hg (810 mbar)
  • Flows to 4080 cfm (6930 m3/ hr)

Key Features

  • Low noise level, less operating power required
  • Improved volumetric efficiency & reduced operating temperatures
  • Alloy steel timing gears
  • Cylindrical roller bearings
  • Piston ring air seals
  • Hydrodynamic shaft seals
  • Splash oil lubrication

Benefits

  • Durable Construction: The ROOTS® RGS-VJ blower features grey iron headplates, gear cover, drive end cover, and one-piece casing, along with carburized alloy steel spur timing gears taper mounted on the shafts, secured with a locknut. Cylindrical roller bearings ensure robust performance.
  • 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.
  • Effective Lubrication: VJ whispair vacuum exhausters incorporate splash oil lubrication at both ends for smooth and reliable performance.
  • Versatile Shaft Options: The top shaft is extended for drive on side outlet vacuum exhausters, and the left or right shaft can be extended for drive on bottom outlet vacuum exhausters.
  • Water Injection System: An inlet spray nozzle and seal water flow meter are supplied for water injection, enhancing pump efficiency.
  • Warranty Coverage: A warranty period of 12 months from date of original unit start-up or 18 months from date of original shipment is provided.
