Plug-And-Play Retrofitting: Maximizing Blower Aeration In Tight Rooms

Kaeser Compressors’ presentation outlines a structured approach to retrofitting modern, energy-efficient blowers into aging municipal and industrial facilities. Presented by Stephen Horne, the discussion addresses common room layout challenges—such as outdated concrete pads, fixed piping networks, and legacy motor control centers (MCCs)—and highlights the significant benefits of upgrading to rotary screw or high-speed turbo blowers, which can improve energy efficiency by 30% or more.
