Airtech Kinetic Blower (AKB) Series are dynamic blowers that transfer kinetic energy to the medium agent by a contactless rotating impeller. The gas is drawn in by a high-performance titanium turbo impeller. The minimized internal losses lead to extremely high efficiencies and silent compression at rotational speeds up to 12,500 RPM. The position of tangential inlet and outlet can be selected individually according to the needs of the application. The reliable IE4/NEMA super premium blower motors are also available with integrated plug and variable frequency drive.

Products Features:

    • Advanced Design – The AKB features permanently greased hybrid ceramic ball bearings, a non-contacting titanium impeller, and a fan-cooled permanentAKB1000-2020-e1600108927425 magnet motor
  • Environmentally Safe – Oil-free compression allows for optimized efficiency, low energy consumption, and low noise level – all in one small footprint.

  • User-Friendly
    – The AKB features no contacting parts and operates oil-free – no maintenance needed.
  • Speed Controlled by external or integrated variable frequency drive.
  • Forward Thinking – With a neodymium magnet IE4/NEMA super-premium permanent magnet motor.
  • Customized for your specific needs and applications.
