Air Blowers and Drying Systems

Paxton Centrifugal Blowers

Paxton Centrifugal Blowers offer highly efficient solutions for drying, blow off, air rinsing, process air and vacuum applications, replacing compressed air blow off, as well as other, less efficient blowers such as squirrel cage or regenerative blowers. When coupled with a properly designed air delivery device, centrifugal air blowers provide superior blow off, drying or air rinsing, to improve product quality, while reducing energy usage by 50 – 80%. Because of these energy savings, the return on investment (ROI) for a Paxton centrifugal blower is often times about one year. Available in sizes from 3 hp up to 20 hp, Paxton offers three series of belt-driven centrifugal blowers. 

  • Highly efficient blowers with state of the art impeller design and improved belt design with less friction
  • Longer service life, with the centrifugal blower design using minimum belt tension for all pulley ratios
  • Low maintenance due to long lasting belts, unique belt tensioning systems, and patented filter design
  • Quiet operation: advanced engineering and precision manufacturing reduce the vibration & noise of our centrifugal blowers
  • Best in class 3 year warranty for all Paxton Blowers

Paxton Products custom-engineers Air Systems for all types of applications, first designing the air delivery device needed based on product size and shape, line speeds and configurations, and other factors. Next, the centrifugal blower is sized based on the air volume and pressure needed for the application, resulting in maximum efficiency and performance. In fact, Paxton offers a full performance guarantee for many applications. 


PX Series Centrifugal Blowers

The new PX-series blowers offer unmatched efficiency. Compared to other high efficiency centrifugal blowers, including Paxton’s own AT-series, the PX-series is 33% more efficient, with blower efficiencies as high as 76%. That means you’ll use 33% less energy! 

Paxton has completely redesigned the blower impeller and scroll, improving aerodynamics to generate 33% more airflow per horsepower input.

More Power

The PX-2000 generates as much as 1500 cfm of air flow, with its 20 hp motor. Compare this with only 1125 cfm of air flow with typical 20 hp blowers. 

Less Energy

The PX-1500 uses a 15 hp motor but generates as much air flow as standard 20 hp blower. That means you’ll save over $2000 in electrical costs annually – that’s 25% of the operating cost. 

More Efficient

- The PX-series generates less heat, turning more energy into air power. 
- Less Heat = More Air Power 
- Less Heat = Longer Blower Life 
- Lower Energy Use per CFM of air generated 

Highly Reliable

- High load capacity bearing at rated speeds for long bearing life. ABEC7 Super Precision Angular Contact bearings made in the USA
- Stringent balancing, quality control and testing prior to leaving the factory 
- Unmatched 3 year warranty 


AT Series Centrifugal Blowers

The AT-series blowers offer highly efficient solutions for process air, drying, or vacuum applications. With availability of power ratings ranging from 7.5 hp to 20 hp, there is an AT-series blower for any industrial application. 

Highly efficient for lower energy costs

- State of the art impeller design produces more airflow at lower blower speeds
- Improved belt design to give less friction
- Patented filter + silencer design reduces pressure drop and vibration

Low maintenance blowers

- Automatic belt tensioner
- Aramid belt lasts 2x longer than polyester belts
- Patented filter media gives improved performance and longer life

Low OSHA compliant noise levels

- Equipped with a silencer cartridge to reduce noise by 3 dBA
- Sound levels can be further reduced with a blower enclosure

Highly reliable

- High load capacity bearing at rated speeds for long bearing life. ABEC7 Super Precision Angular Contact bearings made in the USA
- Stringent balancing, quality control and testing prior to leaving the factory
- Unmatched 3 year warranty


XT Series Centrifugal Blowers

The XT-series blowers are Paxton’s highest efficiency blowers for drying and process air applications of all types. Return on investment is often times about one year. The XT-series is available in 3 hp and 5 hp models. The XT-300 is Paxton’s smallest blower and is the foundation of the PowerDry™ System. The XT-series features an auto-tension belt drive designed specifically to enhance the performance, efficiency and service life of the XT-series’ smaller motors. And the energy requirements for the XT-series is substantially less than that of a typical centrifugal blower: an XT-500, for example, delivers 20% more flow at the same pressure when compared to a standard 5 hp centrifugal blower.

Highest efficiency for lowest energy costs

- Auto-tensioning belt with low bearing loads and reduced friction 
- State of the art impeller design produces more airflow at lower blower speeds 
- Patented filter design reduces pressure drop and vibration 

Low maintenance

- Auto-tension belt drive 
   - No tensioner to replace 
   - Auto-tensioning belt lasts 3x longer than standard polyester belts 
- Patented filter media gives improved performance and longer life 

Lower noise levels

- Equipped with a silencer cartridge to reduce noise by 3 dBA
- Sound levels can be further reduced with a blower enclosure 

Highly reliable

- High load capacity bearing at rated speeds for long bearing life. ABEC7 Super Precision Angular Contact bearings made in the USA.
