AMETEK Rotron will not knowingly specify, design or build any regenerative blower for
installation in a hazardous, explosive location without the proper NEMA motor enclosure.
AMETEK Rotron does not recognize sealed blowers as a substitute for explosion-proof
motors. Sealed units with standard TEFC motors should never be utilized where local, state,
and/or federal codes specify the use of explosion-proof equipment.
AMETEK Rotron has a complete line of regenerative blowers with explosion-proof motors.
Division 1 & 2, Class I, Group D; Class II, Groups F & G requirements are met with these
standard explosion-proof blowers.
AMETEK Rotron will not knowingly specify, design or build any regenerative blower for
installation in a hazardous, corrosive environment without the proper surface treatment and
sealing options.
AMETEK Rotron has a complete line of Chemical Processing and Nasty Gas™ regenerative
blowers with Chem-Tough™, stainless steel parts, and seals.
AMETEK Rotron offers general application guidance; however, suitability of the particular
blower selection is ultimately the responsibility of the purchaser, not the manufacturer of the
blower.
