About Air Compressors

About Sound Levels

Measured in decibels (dB), volume ratings indicate how much noise equipment makes. Some common volume levels include a whisper @ 20 dB, a refrigerator @ 40 dB, a conversation @ 60 dB, and a light machine shop @ 90 dB. OSHA recommends hearing protection for exposure to 80 dB and greater.

High-Flow Low-Pressure Compressed Air Blowers

Also known as regenerative blowers, use these to produce high-flow compressed air with low pressure or vacuum to operate pump drives, lift tables, and conveying systems. Compressed air blowers are also used for drying, exhausting, and aeration.

Air circulates inside the blower housing to compress air, which generates pressure or vacuum. Single-stage blowers circulate air once and then exhaust. Two-stage blowers circulate air twice and then exhaust, creating higher pressure or vacuum than single-stage blowers with the same horsepower.

Inverter-rated blowers have a motor that can run at slow speeds without overheating, so they can be used with a motor speed control (variable frequency drive).

Compressed Air Flow Boosters

Adjustable

Fixed

Fixed with Flange

Create a high-flow air stream from your compressed air supply. Flow boosters draw in ambient air, which amplifies compressed air flow. To maximize performance and service life, install a filter inline before the booster to remove particles down to the maximum particle size. Use hose clamps (not included) to connect hose or duct to the inlet or outlet.

Adjustable boosters allow you to fine-tune the flow—rotate the knurled ring to change the amount of ambient air drawn into the booster.

Boosters with flange mount easily near your equipment.

Hazardous Location Spark-Resistant Blowers

These blowers have an explosion-proof motor that is UL listed for hazardous locations. They also have an aluminum housing for spark resistance. These blowers install in ductwork similar to duct fans, but are for use where high static pressures are present. Use them for equipment cooling, material conveying, drying, ventilating, and exhausting.

Note: Airflow depends on the resistance created by ductwork. This resistance, known as static pressure (SP), is measured in inches of water.

Blowers

These blowers install in ductwork similar to duct fans, but are for use where high static pressures are present. Use them for equipment cooling, material conveying, drying, ventilating, and exhausting. All blowers have an open dripproof motor enclosure for relatively clean, dry, indoor locations.

Note: Airflow depends on the resistance created by ductwork. This resistance, known as static pressure (SP), is measured in inches of water.
