The radial wheel industrial blower can be used for many types of applications but they are mostly typically employed for the displacement of air, for moving and conveying light materials and particulates.
The RXI Series industrial blower ranges in sizes from 13” to 41” and includes a square housing and a backward inclined wheel. Various volumes, pressures and class’ are available. They are made of mild steel construction and are capable of up to 70 000 CFM, 30” H20, and 800°F.
The SXI Series industrial blower ranges in sizes from 7” to 17” and includes a square housing and a flat blade impeller (paddle wheel). Various volumes, pressures and classes are available. They are made of mild steel construction and are capable of up to 9 000 CFM, 18” H20, and 650°F.
- Flat Radial Blades handle dirty air materials without build-up;
- Square housing offers a choice of four discharge positions and a versatile motor base mount;
- Four-way gusset maintains structural stability regardless of motor location;
- Steep pressure characteristics;
- Quick easy wheel removal for clean-out
How the RXI & SXI Series Radial Wheel Industrial Blower Work
- A central shaft, about which a set of blades are connected to, is linked to and driven by a motor.
- Air is drawn into the fan near the shaft as the impeller rotates.
- As it turns, air is blown at right angles to the intake of the fan and is spun outwards to the outlet by deflection and centrifugal force.
