Aerodynamic Perfection:The Lone Star backward swept impeller design with splitter blades puts the peak efficiency on a stable part of the curve. Having a higher rise to surge allows for safer operation throughout the entire flow range. Radial or Forward Swept impellers are most efficient near surge conditions and are susceptible to tripping the blower off or causing damage.
INFINITY Bearings:The GL Series utilize force lubricated tilt pad bearings proven to be a 30-year robust platform. Add SO-INFINITY lubricant and enjoy up to 90,000 hours of constant service between lubricant changes.
