Turbo Blower Series
Energy Efficiency is Key in Wastewater Treatment Industry
The role of aeration blowers in wastewater treatment facilities is fundamental. In a typical wastewater treatment plant, the process of air production represents over half of the total energy used. This accounts for up to 75% of the total life-cycle cost of a blower. The remaining costs come from capital investment, maintenance activities and spare parts.
Introducing the efficiency of turbo blowers can improve efficiency and tackle energy concerns in wastewater treatment plant, and at the same time decreasing their environmental and financial impacts (total cost of ownership).
When choosing the right technology to help you save costs and reduce your environmental impact, trust Robuschi’s experts to offer you the best solution.
Choose the Robox Turbo Blower for Wastewater Treatment
The Robox Turbo blower offers several advantages to reduce the total cost of ownership in wastewater treatment plant applications by providing:
• High nominal blower efficiency to maximize energy savings up to 40%.
• A wide turndown to properly match the air demand of the process. This is supported by the combination of centrifugal technology and positive displacement compression offered by rotary lobe and screw blowers. Both technologies are a part of the Robuschi product portfolio.
• A very compact footprint so the size of your compressor room can be minimized.
• The simplicity and reliability of air foil bearings that eliminate the need for oil lubrication. This increases the safety of the operation and guarantees contaminant free air quality.
• A plug & play inverter incorporated in the package. This leads to ease of installation – especially cost effective during commissioning phases.
• The high speed permanent magnet motor directly coupled to the impeller needs no transmission. This decreases maintenance costs (no gearbox and belts) and potential downtime.
• Low vibrations and noise levels due to dynamic compression and direct coupling.
Innovative Design for High Efficiency
Turbo Blower technology relies on centrifugal compression which generates pressure by transforming kinetic energy (speed) into static energy (pressure). This compression is generated within the blower’s air end. To control every running and safety parameter of the unit, a PLC-based controller ensures safe and sound operation. Additional core components are also present to guarantee a complete piece of mind for the product as well as its operators.
High Speed Motor and Drive for Maximum Efficiency
A key aspect of turbo technology is the need for a high rotational speed required to reach the operating pressure level. The rotational speed is generated by a high speed motor, coupled with a high frequency drive, both controlled by a PLC-based unit controller. The rotational speed together with additional parameter adjustments is ensured by the machine without the need of user intervention.
The Robox Turbo is equipped with a variety of high speed motors providing the highest efficiency and reliability depending on the blower size, All Robox Turbo are supplied as standard with PMSM providing the highest effciency and reliability:
• PMSM Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (from 100 Hp to 700 Hp)
High Efficiency for Low Lifecycle Cost
