Northey offer an extensive range of side channel blowers and exhausters, perfect for air and gas handling. There are no contacting parts therefore the blowers are totally oil-free.
Advantages
- Oil free, no lubrication
- Low maintenance
- Quiet (noise emissions typically between 50 to 85 dB (A) meaning no need for acoustic shielding)
- Smooth pulsation-free flow
- Space saving
- Pressures to 1750 mbar A, Vacuum to 550 mbar A. Flows to 1800 m3/h
- Wide variety of pressure and vacuum applications
- Smooth air/gas flow, with little or no pulsation
When a fan is inadequate and a roots-type blower too noisy or costly, side channel blowers are ideal. Their greater efficiency, a side channel blower can generate higher pressure and suction than a fan, while its quiet operation, size and relatively low cost are distinct advantages in a comparison with roots type units.
Applications
With the models and variations available, units can perform a wide variety of air and gas handling tasks. A few of these are listed below.
- Tank agitation and fume extraction (Metal treatment and electronic industries)
- Aeration, gas boosting and odour extraction (Water industry)
- Combustion air handling, component cooling, vapour recovery (Process gas industry)
- Pneumatic conveying, bin aeration (General industry)
- Vacuum pickup and hold down of carton, paper and irregular shaped products
- Product drying
- Water oxygenation for aquatic life (Fishing industry and aquariums)
- Spa agitation
- Liquid of particle removal from products under vacuum
