Blowers
Roots* blowers’ technology is built on a heritage of engineering and manufacturing expertise dating back to the Roots brothers’ discovery of the principle of the rotary positive displacement blower in 1854. Today, GE Oil & Gas’ Roots blowers are manufactured in a variety of bare shaft models with distinct features and in standard factory packages to meet an array of application requirements.
Roots blowers are available in bi-lobe and tri-lobe models in a range of sizes for both pressure and vacuum service. Produced with advanced design tools and modern manufacturing technologies, our blower solutions meet demanding requirements worldwide.
