ROOTS

Integral Gear Compressors are suitable for

use with a variety of constant speed or variable speed

drivers. Local energy costs and your requirements will

determine the most economical method of drive for

your application.

The impeller is the most critical element in a centri-

fugal compressor. The most common configurations

are those with backward leaning blades curved away

from the direction of rotation, or impellers with blades

which discharge radially. Material selection is driven

by process gas and performance requirements.

Inlet and diffuser vanes, together or alone, are avail-

able as options, with either manual or automatic controls.

Adjustable inlet guide vanes control the capacity with a

minimum loss of efficiency, and also increase the stable

operating range. Adjustable diffuser vanes are available

for certain apps. to maximize efficiency and turndown.
