Vacuum generation of rotary lobe vacuum pumps and blowers explained in three steps
1. Inlet
- The pumped medium enters via the inlet.
- Two three-bladed rotary lobes are mounted in parallel within the housing.
2. Compression
- The rotary lobes rotate in opposite directions.
- No lubricants or operating fluids are required, as the blades do not come in contact with each other or the housing.
- With each rotation, the lobes trap and compress the pumped medium.
3. Outlet
- The compressed medium is expelled through the outlet.
