Brushless DC blowers redesigned
Microjammer variable-speed, brushless DC blowers' redesigned bearing system contributes to longer life and a rear-balancing disk significantly reduces vibration of the blower's rotating fan system.
Motors fit small, light packages
Brushless DC motors feature integrated drive electronics enabling enhanced motor controllability in a smaller, lighter package.
These blowers deliver high air pressures/vacuums to satisfy material handling applications using air.
Industries typically benefiting from this technology include injection moulding and plastics, packaging, chemical processing, and medical, among others.
The blowers provide compact solutions with a maximum diameter size of 145mm and heights ranging from 134.62 to 174.50mm, depending on the model.
IntelliGen blowers operate from AC line voltages of 120 or 240V, 50/60Hz single phase.
Internal electronics convert the AC to DC.
Users can realise maximum sealed vacuum capabilities up to 284mbar of H20 and maximum wide-open flow to 280 130 litre/s.
Variable speed control can be achieved by an internally adjusted speed control with onboard potentiometer or an external DC control.
Blowers can be programmed to maintain a constant pressure over a wide range of flow or accurately maintain a ratio of specific speed/output pressure to the user's speed command input signal.
Various option cards can further expand blower capabilities.
All IntelliGen blowers are rugged and virtually maintenance-free.
