Roots RAM J Series
The RAM-J combines Roots' industrial-grade bi-lobe platform with WHISPAIR jet technology, delivering pressures to 18 PSIG while reducing pulsation and noise by 3-5 dB. The wrap-around plenum and jet ports feed pressurized, cooled air into the blower chamber, aiding rotation and enabling higher pressure ratios with single-stage operation. Available in 7 frame sizes (404–624), RAM-J blowers serve noise-sensitive, high-pressure pneumatic and aeration applications requiring the robustness of the RAM platform with the quiet efficiency of WHISPAIR technology.
