Are miniature high-speed airfoil turbo blowers—also called air turbo blowers—expensive?
Yes. But here’s why the high price is more than justified.
1. Energy Savings Pay for Themselves
These compact units offer up to 40% energy savingscompared to traditional blowers.
Daily, HKG models save substantial power:
• HKG15 burns just 15 kW instead of 22 kW—saving 7 kW per hour. Over a year (365 × 24 h), that’s about 61,320 kWh saved.
These consistent savings mean the higher price is quickly recovered in reduced electricity bills.
2. Long Lifespan Means Fewer Replacements
Airfoil turbo blowers useair-foil bearings, which require no lubrication and experience no wear.
They can last up to 20 years, greatly extending service life.
With simple filter changes every three months at under €50 each—and possible while running—maintenance costs stay very low.
3. Compact, Efficient Design Saves Space and Hassle
These blowers are compact—over 50% smallerthan comparable units—so they take up much less space in your facility.
The integrated skid-mounted setup includes a Siemens PLC and touchscreen, offering intuitive control and smooth operation.
4. Quiet and Eco-Friendly Operation
Operating under 80 dBA, they are far quieter than many industrial blowers, making them ideal for noise-sensitive environments.
Plus, they run oil-free, eliminating contamination risk and aligning with eco-friendly goals.
5. High Precision and Smart Control
Using aerospace-grade materials and five-axis CNC impellers, these units achieve speeds up to 30,000 RPMwith up to 98% motor efficiency.
The built-in inverter enables smart speed control and up to 87% turndown, adjusting to real-time needs and avoiding wasted energy.
6. Multiple Benefits in One Package
Yes, the cost is higher up front. But you benefit from:
• Major energy savings that quickly offset the cost
• Long lifespan with minimal upkeep
• Smaller footprint and integrated design
• Quiet, clean, and eco-friendly performance
• High-precision, smart control systems
All these benefits add up to lower total cost of ownership and exceptional value.
