What is a root blower?

A root blower, also known as a positive displacement blower or rotary lobe blower is a machine used to move air or gases by displacing them through a set of rotating lobes or impellers. It is commonly used in various industrial applications for air and gas compression or aeration.

How does a root blower work?

How does a root blower work?

Root blowers work on the principle of positive displacement. Two lobes or impellers rotate in opposite directions, creating chambers that trap and then expel air or gas. As the lobes rotate, they continuously draw in and push out the fluid, creating a steady flow of compressed air or gas.
