Complete Guide to Using Roots Blowers: A Thoughtful Guide from Selection to Maintenance
As an industrial equipment user, you have encountered such difficulties: poor ventilation in the workshop, high energy consumption and easy failure of traditional fans, or uneven aeration in sewage treatment affecting the treatment effect At this point, Roots blower may be your ideal solution! Today we will learn about the correct way to open this' industrial lung '.
Why choose Roots blower?
1 * * Stable and reliable * *: With no internal compression design, the flow rate is almost unaffected by pressure changes, making it particularly suitable for scenarios that require constant airflow
2 * * Simple Structure * *: Composed only of two impellers and a casing, the failure rate is more than 30% lower than that of a centrifugal fan
3 * * Easy maintenance * *: Only regular replacement of lubricating oil and filters is required for daily use, unlike screw compressors that require professional maintenance
Guide to choosing and avoiding pitfalls
3 common mistakes made by beginners:
-Only consider price, not material (cast iron vs stainless steel)
-Ignore noise indicators (industrial areas require<85 decibels)
-Excessive selection leads to energy waste (it is recommended to leave a margin of 10)
Install and use the 5-step method
1. Foundation fixation: The concrete foundation should reserve installation positions for shock-absorbing rubber pads
2. Pipeline connection: Use flexible joints to avoid vibration transmission
3. Steering confirmation: jog the test machine to observe the direction of the arrow
4. No load operation: At least 30 minutes of running in during the first start-up
5. Load debugging: gradually increase the pressure to the working point
3 tips to extend lifespan
Monthly inspection: belt tension, oil level, filter
Must do every quarter: Replace lubricating oil (recommended to use ISO VG68)
Exception handling: If abnormal noise is detected, immediately stop the machine. Common causes include foreign objects entering or gear wear
Remember, a good Roots blower can last for more than 10 years, and the key lies in daily "gentle treatment". Next time when your workshop needs a stable gas source, you may consider this "iron lung" partner, who will repay your choice with long-lasting performance!
