Blowers

Blowers inhabit an operating envelope between fans and compressors, and indeed many blowers are essentially high pressure fans. There is no hard and fast boundary between a fan, a blower and a compressor, and the turbo-compressor is also referred to as a turbo-blower.

Howden supplies three basic types of blower

• Submerged (or encapsulated) blowers
• High pressure fans
• Positive displacement blowers
