 Selecting
the right blower that operates at the correct speed is critical to the
success of any pneumatic conveying system. At Premier, we supply a wide
range of quality blower packages for continuous pressure systems. With
blowers for 2-inch to 10-inch conveyingsystems, our system designers can
select a blower that is specifically tailored to respond efficiently for
your application. Each blower is supported by a heavy-dutybase, features
an industry-proven blower and motor and includes numerous built-in safeguards
to protect blower life.
 Heavy-duty
blower base
Every Premier blower package is supported on a heavy-duty base that allows
easy access for cleaning. An adjustable motor mount accommodates any motor
with a NEMA bolt pattern and lets the motor be easily moved to the best
position for tension on the drive belt. Built-in braces permit the entire
package to be moved into position with a forklift during installation
or maintenance procedures.
 Totally
enclosed drive guard
A heavy-duty drive guard totally encloses the drive to protect plant personnel.
An expanded metal front allows the operator to visually inspect the belts
without removing the guard and lets the heat from the belts dissipate
for longer belt life. Routine maintenance is simplified by the drive guard’s
easy access design.
 Industry
proven blower
Every Premier blower package incorporates an industry-proven positive
displacement blower. The blower is dynamically balanced, and isolation
pads are positioned between the blower and the base to reduce vibration
and noise.
 Industry
proven motor
An industryproven
motor that meets all NEMA specifications is standard on every blower package.
Like the blower, it is mounted on isolation pads to reduce vibration.
 Easy-to-read
gauge
A large, easy-to-read gauge permits easy monitoring
of the blower in operation. It is divided into PSI for pressure blowers
and inches of mercury (Hg) for vacuum blowers. A snubber assures the accuracy
of the reading and improves the gauge’s wear life by absorbing the
pressure shocks and pulsations of the blower.
 Inlet
filter silencer (Pressure blowers only)
An inlet filter silencer is available to reduce sound
emissions and protect the pressure blower from dust and other particles
in the ambient air. To accommodate indoor or outdoor use, the filter element
is housed in a rain hood that is easily removed for filter inspection
or cleaning.
 Inlet
and discharge silencers
Premier silencers are designed to reduce the sound emissions produced
by the high-speed air generated by the positive displacement blower. They
are designed to allow the air to flow through with a minimum of resistance
and thereby ensure maximum blower performance. Silencers are available
in a wide range of sizes for vertical or horizontal configurations.

Blower
sizing maximizes system efficiency
Before selecting
your blower package, our system designers carefully calculate the required
performance of each blower and how it will respond to your specific application.
We recognize how important a properly sized blower is for maximum system
efficiency. An undersized blower wastes valuable time with reduced rates.
Oversized units are a waste of energy and an unnecessary initial capital
expenditure. At Premier, our standard design procedure is to select a
blower that will meet the system’s requirements with the blower operating
at 75-80% of capacity. This promotes longer blower life and provides some
room for field adjustment, if necessary, to fine tune the system.
Optional
features
After-coolers (to reduce the
blower’s outlet temperature in applications handling heat-sensitive
materials), motors for explosion-proof applications or special voltage
requirements, and other special options are available to tailor our blowers
to your specific application.
