The
Side Channel Blowers / Vacuum Pump are widely used in printing machines.
These are kind of pumps which operate oil free. As the impeller rotates
without contact with the side of the housing, the compression space is
free from wear. Side channel vacuum pump / blowers compress air by
volume displacement and operate without metal to metal contact. Side
channel blowers are there for universal use in vacuum and overpressure
applications, especially in printing machines. For low pressure and
vacuum applications, the side channel design offers many operating
advantages. Features and uses of Side Channel Vacuum Pump / Blowers
- There is non pulsating air flow in almost all pumps.
- Side channel blowers are generally economical.
- The pump is of compact size and light weight.
- Generally is of low noise operation.
- No lubrication is required since there is no friction and hence the air is absolutely oil free.
- Practically, there is no maintenance cost.
- No contamination of gases or liquids conveyed.
- Stability and absence of vibrations.
- Gastight
- Single stage and two stage available.
- Special materials or coating available.
- Generally V-belt driven or direct driven.
- Special motors.
