What are the differences between air compressors and Roots blowers?
Release time:
2022-03-26
Both can generate pressure and flow, but their uses are different; the Roots blower has low pressure but sufficient flow, so it is usually used in sewage or water treatment systems, and it is also used in some production lines, mainly for stirring, blowing, or suction. The Roots blower is used for delivering air, and it compresses and transports gas by utilizing three lobed rotors that move relative to each other within the cylinder, and it can also be used as a vacuum pump. The air compressor is short for "air compressor," which is used to generate compressed air and can produce high-pressure air. Air compressors are divided into two main categories: positive displacement and dynamic. Positive displacement is further divided into reciprocating and rotary types; dynamic can be divided into axial, centrifugal, and mixed flow types. Applications: Roots blowers are widely used in chemical, metallurgy, sewage treatment, aquaculture, light industry, mining, plastics, food, electricity, and papermaking, and can transport gases such as coal gas, natural gas, hydrogen, carbon monoxide, and acetylene using mechanical seals; selecting stainless steel impellers can transport corrosive toxic gases such as hydrogen chloride and hydrogen sulfide.
