What is a Blower?
A blower is a facility equipment that transfers air in an environment exposed to emission at a high flow rate or low pressure. It operates by rotating a fan using the power received from a motor.
In short, blowers are devices that transport air by blowing it.
Where Are Blowers Used?
Blowers are used in various applications, including:
- Gas flow through sewage systems, process piles, etc.
- Exhausting, aspiration, cooling, ventilation, and air conveyance.
- Wastewater Treatment Plants
- Car Wash Systems
- Paper Cutting Processes
- Bottle Drying
- Jacuzzi Systems
- Post-Printing Drying in Printers
- Fermentation Processes
- Oxygen Supply in Pools
- Heating Systems (Boilers, Furnaces, etc.)
- Vegetable and Fruit Washing
- Pipe Cleaning
- Dust and Particle Transport
How to Select a Blower?
Incorrect blower selection can result in poor performance and unnecessary electricity costs. In this section, we will cover the key considerations for selecting the right blower for industrial applications.
- Determine the location where the blower will be installed.
- Measure the area where it will be used.
- Decide on the direction of the airflow.
- Design an installation plan, including the blower, ducts, equipment, and processes.
- Determine the required airflow values for the application.
- Answer questions regarding the temperature of incoming air, its source, and its entry method.
- Consider the pressure loss in the airflow outside the duct.
Essential Data for Blower Selection
Once all these calculations are made, the most important factors for choosing a blower include:
- Required air flow rate (m³/h)
- Positive pressure the blower needs to overcome (if used for air transfer) (mbar, bar, mSS, etc.)
- Vacuum level required (if used for suction) (-mbar, -bar, etc.)
- Ambient temperature
