How Do Pressure Blowers Handle High System Resistance?
Long duct runs, cyclones, and heavy particulate loads build back pressure that flattens a general purpose fan’s output. These blowers use narrow, high speed wheels that hold airflow steady as static pressure climbs.
Supporting Details:
- Direct drive arrangements eliminate belt tensioning and reduce scheduled maintenance intervals
- Field rotatable housings allow discharge repositioning without reordering the blower
- Marine duty and turbo variants available on the Hartzell Series 07 platform
Why Source Pressure Blowers Through J.E. Phillips Co.?
J.E. Phillips Co. opened in October 1969 with Hartzell as its first line, then added IAP, Cincinnati Fan, and Daniels Fans. Carrying four blower platforms means we compare options against your data rather than fitting your job to one catalog.
Proof Points:
- 55+ years representing air movement lines across California and Nevada
- Third generation ownership: the same people answer your call next year
- Direct factory engineering access: sizing questions reach the manufacturer’s engineers
Frequently Asked Questions About Pressure Blowers
What is the difference between a pressure blower and a centrifugal fan?
Volume is the trade: these blowers give up airflow quantity to hold output where a standard centrifugal fan would stall.
What static pressure can these blowers reach?
Ratings across the four lines run to 80 inches water gauge, with model by model figures in the tables above.
Can these blowers handle dust and grit in the airstream?
Yes, the Hartzell Series 07 platform is built for air carrying dust and grit at temperatures to 200°F.
Which housing materials are available for corrosive airstreams?
Steel, aluminum, 304 and 316 stainless, hot dipped galvanized, and fiberglass, depending on the model selected.
Find the Right Pressure Blower for Your System
The right blower depends on your CFM, static pressure, temperature, and what is riding in the airstream. Send us those four numbers and we will come back with models that fit.
