Tri-Lobe Blower Series

Improved sound performance meets legendary reliability

The Tri Lobe Blower Legend represents the next evolution in Gardner Denver's renowned Sutorbilt Legend series. Improved tri-lobe rotor profiling provides reduced sound levels without sacrificing efficiency. Available in both Grease Splash and Dual Splash configurations, there’s a Legend for your application. A continued leader in industry reliability and performance, Gardner Denver is your truster partner in industrial applications.

The Tri Lobe Blower Legend industrial blower is built for sound reduction and performance. It has a strong drive shaft for over-hung load capabilities and increased blower life. The high-temperature Viton oil seals help the seals last longer in tough conditions. Its tri-lobe impeller design reduces pressure pulsation levels, which provides lower noise levels and smoother air-flow.

 

The single-piece cylinder construction provides superior strength and rigidity, along with integrally cast ribs for added heat dissipation. Universal mounting feet allow for flexible installation, making this blower a reliable choice for demanding applications. With the same dimensions as the Sutorbilt Legend bi-lobe, the new Legend Tri-lobe can serve as a direct drop-in replacement for existing applications.

 

The Tri Lobe Blower Legend offers reliable performance for many industrial uses, like wastewater treatment and pneumatic conveying. Built under strict ISO 9001:2000 quality standards, each unit is thoroughly tested to meet the most rigorous performance standards.

Tri-lobe rotor profile

The new tri-lobe rotor design provides significant noise level improvement over traditional bi-lobe configurations. The tri-lobe profile creates a smoother pressure pulse pattern compared to bi-lobe blowers, resulting in significantly reduced pulsation and reduced dBa levels.

 

Dual Splash Lubrication and Grease Splash options

The Legend Tri-lobe Blower Series is available in both Grease/Splash Lubricated and Dual Splash Lubrication models. The large sump capacity ensures cooler running bearings, while high-temperature Viton Oil Seals maximize seal life in continuous, severe-duty applications.

 

Flexible mounting options

The Sutorbilt Legend Tri-lobe Series features universal feet for flexible installation and can be configured in multiple orientations:

  • Standard horizontal configurations
  • Vertical configurations
  • Center timed for rotation in either direction
  • Center timed and discharge timed options

Tri-lobe rotors offer quiet, efficient operation

The tri-lobe rotor profile significantly reduces discharge pressure pulsation, which is a primary contributor to high noise levels for PD Blowers. Our Tri-lobe rotor increases the pulsation rate while decreasing pulsation pulse; resulting in less noise while maintaining efficiency. Available pressure ranges up to 13 psig and vacuum levels to 15" Hg.

 

Easy drop-in replacement for sutorbilt legend bi-lobe

With universal mounting feet and the same dimensions as the Sutorbilt Legend bi-lobe the Legend Tri-lobe Series can serve as a drop-in replacement for existing Sutorbilt Legend bi-lobe units.

 

Reduced pressure pulsation for smoother rate of transfer

Tri-lobe rotor profiling offers more consistent flow variation and a smoother rate of transfer. This reduces the potential for damage to downstream instrumentation while delivering airflow up to 972 cfm.
