How do Roots Blowers work?

Roots Blowers are consist of two rotors inside the pump housing. The two rotors are mounted on parallel shafts. Rotors rotate non-contact at the same speed in opposite directions in order to draw air or gas into the blower body. A set of timing gears keeps the rotors in synchronization. Driving air or gas at the inlet side is trapped between the rotors and the casing. The rotating rotors pushes the trapped air or gas to the discharge side against whatever pressure exists in the system.

One rotor is called the “driving rotor” because it is run by an external power supply – generally an electrical motor-, while the opposite rotor is called a “driven rotor” because it is driven by gears connected to the driving rotor.
