Spencer Power Mizer multistage
centrifugal blowers provide high
efficiency air delivery for water and
wastewater treatment applications such
as sewage aeration, odor control, grit
chamber aeration, channel aeration and
filter backwash.
Cast components with low
operating sound levels
The inlet section, return channels and
discharge section of Power Mizer blowers
are gray cast iron with excellent strength,
chemical resistance and sound attenuation.
Cast aluminum impeller.
The rotor assembly of Power Mizer
blowers in Series 4000 through Series
7000 contains cast aluminum impellers
(shown above). Their three-dimensional
blades transfer energy to the airstream
with very high efficiency. Blade config-
urations include radial, backswept
and combinations of both, selected by
Spencer engineers using specialized
computer software.
Superior aerodynamics
The air handling components of these
blowers were designed in the Spencer
Development Laboratory. By avoiding
abrupt velocity changes that create
turbulence and waste energy, Spencer
engineers achieved smoother, more
energy-efficient airflow from blower
inlet to discharge.
Uniquely shaped impellers, return channels
with airfoil-shaped vanes, redesigned
inlet and discharge passages and vane-
less diffusers all contribute to a peak
adiabatic efficiency that is above 80%.
Precisely balanced rotors
Spencer’s exacting balancing procedures
produce an overall vibration level of
.19 in/sec or less for Series 2500 to 7000;
and .23 in/sec or less for Series 8000 –
the best in the industry. This decreases
bearing stress, which improves bearing
life and blower reliability.
Year-in, year-out savings
Power Mizer blowers offer long-term
power savings of tens of thousands of
dollars per blower per year. And you
can often downsize the motor to save
even more!
EXAMPLE 1*
38 x .746 = 28.348 kW saved
28.348 x 24 x 365 (continuous
annual operation) = 248,328 kWH
248,328 x $.10/kWH
(local utility cost) = $24,832
Motor efficiency of 95% yields an actual
savings of $26,139 on an annual basis.
*Assumes savings of 38 HP for one blower.
EXAMPLE 2
A New England WWT utility replaced five
positive displacement aeration blowers
(aggregate 450 HP, 3500 SCFM) with
three Power Mizer blowers (each 190
HP, 4000 SCFM). Even with only one
blower running at a time, the customer
saves $7,000 per month in power bills
and expects the blowers to pay for
themselves in four years or less.
