Roots URAI J Series
The URAI-J adds Roots' proprietary WHISPAIR jet technology to the proven Universal RAI platform, delivering 3-5 dB noise reduction through controlled pressure equalization. The wrap-around plenum and jet ports meter discharge pressure in the direction of impeller movement, aiding rotation and reducing system shock. Available in 5 frame sizes (33, 36, 45, 47, 56), URAI-J blowers maintain the compact, durable bi-lobe design while achieving lower pulsation and improved efficiency for noise-sensitive applications.
