Power Mizer®

Spencer Multistage Fabricated

The precise and energy-efficient movement of air and gases is a requirement of a wide variety of applications, including functions related to industrial, institutional, commercial and municipal services. As such, multistage fabricated centrifugal blowers are crucial pieces of equipment that organizations count on to perform well from the moment they are installed.

Our multistage fabricated blowers follow one of our three basic designs

  • SOH for standard performance: Multistage fabricated centrifugal blowers manufactured with their impellers mounted on an extended motor shaft
  • 4BOH for higher performance: Multistage fabricated centrifugal blowers manufactured with their impellers mounted on a shaft that is coupled to the motor shaft
  • 4BOB for the highest performance: Multistage fabricated centrifugal blowers manufactured with their impellers mounted on a shaft that is supported at both ends by self-aligning ball bearings, coupled to the motor shaft

Our blowers can handle applications ranging from gas compression for the petrochemical industry to round-the-clock aeration for municipal water treatment systems. Additionally they help commercial enterprises to hospitals—and more—run their central vacuum cleaning and air-quality control systems with confidence.
