4500 SeriesPositive Displacement Blowers & Vacuum Pumps

4500 Series

2

Setting the Industry StandardGardner Denver’s 4500 Series of rotary positive displacement lobe blowers and vacuum pumps are the result of more than seventy years experience in the design, manufacture and support of superior industrial equipment.

4500 Series Performance Range Delivers

• Pressure to 15 psig

• Vacuum to 16" Hg or greater

• Continuous duty service

• Discharge temperatures up to 325°F (short case units to 360°F)

• Mechanical seals are available for gas service applications

The 4500 Series CycleWith every rotation of the blower drive shaft, two lobe impellers turn in opposite directions transferring a constant volume of air or gas from inlet to discharge.

4500 Series Design Features

• Rated for continuous duty in all industrial applications

• Provides longer life, simplified maintenance and reduced service intervals

• Permits higher speeds and performance ratings

Rugged Construction

• Compact, heavy-duty, and produced from high strength materials

• Advanced case design with increased vent areas

• The impeller case is precision machined from a single cast of high tensile iron and ribbed externally to prevent distortion

• Ductile iron impellers equipped with one-piece alloy steel shafts

• Equipped with bearings designed for heavy duty applications and durability

3

The 4500 Series Incorporates Simplified Timing

• Simple and precise timing gears maintain proper clearance between the impellers

• Grip rings replace conventional timing hubs and guarantee the timing gears are mounted square and concentric to the shaft, resulting in minimum gear noise and wear

• Located between the gear and the shaft, grip rings are sets of two complementary wedge section rings

• Grips rings expand against the bore of the gear and contract on the shaft, ensuring an immovable friction fit

Noise Reduction

• Elliptical shaped inlet port minimizes inrush air noise

• An outlet port permits gradual release of downstream air and noise

• These ports significantly reduce air noise, minimize mechanical loading, and control vibration

Lubrication

• Timing gears and anti-friction bearings utilize abundant, dual-splash lubrication

• Dual-splash lubrication eliminates the need for the customary pump, sump and vulnerable external tubing

• Visual oil level indicators are located at both ends

Bearings

• Anti-friction bearings are locked against shoulders on both impeller shafts at gear end

• These bearings maintain factory-set clearances between headplates and impellers

• Bearings are sized so the drive shaft may be direct or belt driven
