A Game Changer In Energy-Efficient Blower Technology

Tune in while Water Online catches up with Tom McCurdy of Aerzen to discuss a major leap in blower technology — the Delta Hybrid Direct Drive. Building on the success of Aerzen’s original Delta Hybrid, this new model delivers even greater energy efficiency, turndown capability, and system versatility.

McCurdy explains how optimizing the rotor profile, eliminating belt losses, and introducing an electric-driven oil pump helped push efficiency gains another 5% beyond the already impressive performance of the hybrid line. The result? A blower that not only outperforms traditional positive displacement and turbo blowers, but also delivers substantial lifecycle savings for utilities — a critical advantage given that blowers account for up to 60% of a wastewater plant’s energy use.
