Side channel blowers are a popular and effective way to produce large volumes of clean, dry compressed air. They can also be used to generate a partial vacuum.

Side channel blowers can be defined as positive displacement, rotary machines used to move air or other gases. Their simple design makes them low cost and their non-contact configuration means they have no wearing parts so they are ultra-reliable. The design is such that the bearings are outside the compression chamber so are shielded from the heat generated during compression. As a result, maintenance is usually confined to regreasing the bearings every 28,000 hours of running time (typical usage over 10–20 years).

Custom solutions are available to suit various user requirements. The pressure generated by side channel blowers is relatively low compared to rotary vane and reciprocating compressors, but it is sufficient for many applications. For greater compression, two and three-stage design side channel blowers can be used.
