Industrial Blower Selection Webinar

This recorded session provides an educational overview of the factors that commonly influence industrial blower evaluations. 

Topics discussed include: 

• Flow requirements and operating conditions
• Pressure and vacuum considerations
• Differences between major blower technology categories
• Application-specific evaluation factors
• Common selection challenges
• Preparing for technical discussions

The webinar is designed to help viewers better understand the evaluation process before engaging in a detailed equipment review. 

Industrial blower evaluations involve multiple operating, process, and installation considerations. 

This webinar explains the concepts that engineers, maintenance professionals, OEMs, and equipment specifiers commonly review when comparing blower technologies and preparing for equipment discussions. 

Topics include: 

• Understanding application requirements
• Reviewing operating conditions
• Comparing technology categories
• Identifying common evaluation challenges
• Organizing information for technical discussions

Unlike the downloadable guide, this webinar provides a narrated explanation of the selection process and common decision points. 

Successful evaluations begin with understanding the process itself. 

The webinar reviews the application information that is commonly considered during blower evaluations, including: 

• Flow requirements
• Pressure or vacuum requirements
• Process conditions
• Gas or material characteristics
• Operating environment
• Future operating needs

Understanding these inputs helps create a stronger foundation for discussions about blower technologies and system requirements. 

The webinar introduces the major technology categories within the ROOTS® portfolio and explains the considerations commonly reviewed when evaluating each.

Positive Displacement Blowers

Learn how positive displacement technologies are commonly applied in industrial air and gas handling systems. The webinar specifically identifies PD blowers as one of the technology categories reviewed.

Centrifugal Compressors

Review factors commonly considered when evaluating centrifugal compressor technologies and operating characteristics. The webinar specifically references centrifugal compressors as part of the technology comparison discussion.

Truck Blowers

Explore evaluation considerations associated with truck-mounted blower and vacuum technologies used in mobile applications.Truck blowers are identified in the webinar as a key technology category for comparison.

Different applications introduce different operating requirements. 

The webinar explains how engineers commonly assess blower technologies across various industrial environments and operating scenarios. 

Applications discussed include: 

• Industrial air systems
• Pneumatic conveying
• Wastewater processes
• Mobile transport applications
• Industrial gas handling environments

Viewers gain a broader understanding of how application context influences equipment evaluation.

One section of the webinar focuses on common issues that can complicate equipment evaluations. 

Examples include: 

• Incomplete operating data
• Underestimating system requirements
• Overlooking installation considerations
• Failing to account for future operating conditions
• Comparing technologies before application requirements are fully defined

The webinar source specifically highlights common mistakes as a key learning objective.

By the end of the webinar, viewers will have a better understanding of: 

✓ How blower evaluations are commonly structured 

✓ Which application requirements are often reviewed 

✓ Differences among major blower technology categories 

✓ Common evaluation challenges 

✓ How to prepare for more productive technical discussions
