ROTRON® Regenerative Blowers

AMETEK Dynamic Fluid Solutions designs and manufactures an assortment of regenerative blowers (DR/EN/CP) for industrial, environmental, instrumentation, and chemical processing applications. These oil-free products provide you with high air pressures/vacuums and feature compact construction, low acoustical noise, high reliability, and long lives without scheduled maintenance requirements.

ROTRON Regenerative Blowers
At AMETEK Dynamic Fluid Solutions, our line of ROTRON Regenerative blowers are designed based on the regenerative principle. The impeller blades passing the inlet port of the blower draw air or other gasses into the blower. The impeller blades then, by centrifugal action, accelerate the air outward and forward. Here the “regenerative” principle takes effect as the air is turned back by the annular shaped housing to the base of the following blades where it is again hurled outward. Each “regeneration” imparts more pressure to the air. When the air reaches the stripper section at the outlet (the stripper is the part of the blower located between the inlet and the outlet in which the annulus is reduced in size to fit closely to the sides and tips of the impeller blades) the air is “stripped” from the impeller and diverted out of the blower. The pressures or vacuums generated by the one or two spinning, non-contacting, oil-free impellers are equal to these obtained by many larger multi-stage or positive displacement blowers.

What is the ROTRON Regenerative Blowers Principle?
A ROTRON Regenerative blower works on the Regenerative principle. The impeller blade passing the inlet port draws air or other gases into the blower. The impeller blades then, by centrifugal action, accelerate the air outward and forward. Here the Regenerative principle takes effect as the air is turned back by the annular shaped housing to the base of the following blades, where it is again hurled outward.
