Tuthill Competitor Plus™


Products :: Blowers :: Competitor Blowers :: Competitor Plus
 

COMPETITOR PLUS™ blowers are designed to be interchangeable with equivalent sizes of Roots Universal RAI®, and many Sutorbilt® California Series B and F, and Legend™ Series L and P blowers. COMPETITOR PLUS models are rated up to 15 PSIG discharge pressure or 16" Hg dry vacuum.

In addition to interchangeability, Competitor Blowers have superior features ordinarily found only on premium blowers - see table below.

Performance Specifications:

  • Flow range: from 6 - 2300 CFM (10-3900 m3/hr)
  • Pressure range: up to 15 PSIG (1.03 bar g)
  • Vacuum range: up to 16" Hg (540 mbar g)

Material Specifications:

  • Housing: Cast iron
  • End Plates: Cast iron
  • End Cover: Cast iron
  • Rotors: Ductile iron
  • Shafts: Ductile iron, cast integrally with rotors
  • Drive Shaft: Ductile iron, cast integrally with drive rotor
  • Gears: Heat treated alloy steel, helical cut
  • Seals: Lip seals on rotor shafts and drive shaft
  • Lubrication: Oil splash on gear end, grease on drive end
  • Bearings:
    • Gear end: Double row ball, both rotors
    • Drive End: Cylindrical roller on drive rotor, Single row ball on driven rotor
   
  • Helical Gearing
  Timed with hardedened, precision helical gears, keyed to the rotor shafts (NOT taper fit spur gears as offered by all other manufacturers, which have greater backlash, and can slip and lose timing). Helical gears are quieter, reducing mechanical noise.  
       
  • Double Row Ball Bearings
  For increased strength compared to single row bearings offered by competing brands. This feature increases bearing life by as much as 50% compared to competing brands.  
       
  • Rotors with Integral Shafts
  COMPETITOR PLUS™ blowers are available in two-lobe or tri-lobe variations. The tri-lobe variation offers reduced pulsation and lower noise levels. The two-lobe variation is ideal for processes with heavy contamination. For vibration free operation all rotors are dynamically balanced. Shafts are integral to the rotors, which prevents loosening over time.  
       
  • Positive End Clearances
  Eliminates the risk of shifting end clearances when installing or removing drive components.  
       
  • Polished Sealing Surfaces
  All shaft surfaces in contact with sealing members are polished to reduce seal wear and risk of leakage.  
       
  • Individually Tested
  Every COMPETITOR PLUS™ blower is factory tested to assure you of the highest quality. While some manufacturers perform only sample testing, we go the distance to insure that your blower meets our rigid ISO 9001 registered quality standards.
