COMPETITOR PLUS™ blowers are designed to be interchangeable with equivalent sizes of Roots Universal RAI®, and many Sutorbilt® California Series B and F, and Legend™ Series L and P blowers. COMPETITOR PLUS models are rated up to 15 PSIG discharge pressure or 16" Hg dry vacuum. In addition to interchangeability, Competitor Blowers have superior features ordinarily found only on premium blowers - see table below. Performance Specifications: Pressure range: up to 15 PSIG (1.03 bar g) Vacuum range: up to 16" Hg (540 mbar g) 530 CFM @ 3600 RPM Material Specifications: Housing: Cast iron End Plates: Cast iron End Cover: Cast iron Rotors: Ductile iron Shafts: Ductile iron, cast integrally with rotors Drive Shaft: Ductile iron, cast integrally with drive rotor Gears: Heat treated alloy steel, helical cut Seals: Lip seals on rotor shafts and drive shaft Lubrication: Oil splash on gear end, grease on drive end Bearings: Gear end: Double row ball, both rotors Drive End: Cylindrical roller on drive rotor, Single row ball on driven rotor Helical Gearing Timed with hardedened, precision helical gears, keyed to the rotor shafts (NOT taper fit spur gears as offered by all other manufacturers, which have greater backlash, and can slip and lose timing). Helical gears are quieter, reducing mechanical noise. Double Row Ball Bearings For increased strength compared to single row bearings offered by competing brands. This feature increases bearing life by as much as 50% compared to competing brands. Rotors with Integral Shafts COMPETITOR PLUS™ blowers are available in two-lobe or tri-lobe variations. The tri-lobe variation offers reduced pulsation and lower noise levels. The two-lobe variation is ideal for processes with heavy contamination. For vibration free operation all rotors are dynamically balanced. Shafts are integral to the rotors, which prevents loosening over time. Positive End Clearances Eliminates the risk of shifting end clearances when installing or removing drive components. Polished Sealing Surfaces All shaft surfaces in contact with sealing members are polished to reduce seal wear and risk of leakage. Individually Tested Every COMPETITOR PLUS™ blower is factory tested to assure you of the highest quality. While some manufacturers perform only sample testing, we go the distance to insure that your blower meets our rigid ISO 9001 registered quality standards.
