Reduced Pulsation. Lower Noise. Smoother Performance.
Discharge pulsation is one of the primary contributors to blower noise. The Legend Tri-Lobe Series utilizes a tri-lobe rotor profile that produces a lower pressure pulse than comparable bi-lobe blowers, resulting in reduced overall noise levels and smoother airflow throughout operation.
This smoother airflow profile helps deliver more consistent flow variation while reducing the potential for vibration-related impacts on downstream instrumentation and system components.
Design | Relative Pulsation | Relative Noise Characteristics |
|---|---|---|
Bi-Lobe | Higher | Higher |
Tri-Lobe | Lower | Lower |
Sutorbilt® Legend® Tri-Lobe | Reduced Pressure Pulse | Reduced Noise Levels |
