Turbo Technology from AERZEN

In today’s world of hard-fought markets and ever increasing competition, it is rare to find a company with over 150 years of continuous operation. AERZEN is one of those. For generations this family enterprise has stood for quality and innovation. AERZEN’s latest innovation – AT Turbo blowers for wastewater treatment – is one more proof of this: amazing performance that sets new standards for energy efficiency.

Magnet vs. air foil bearing - AERZEN air foil bearing: more than one step ahead!

Active magnetic bearing and air foil bearing technologies are both excellent solutions for high-speed applications, such as turbo blowers. They are virtually maintenance-free as they operate without lubrication while offering low friction.

However, with decades of experience in high-speed turbo blower design and manufacturing, AERZEN believes in air foil-bearing technology as the most efficient and reliable of the two options.

Simple and Effective: Air as Bearing System

AERZEN high-speed turbo blowers feature a simple yet effective construction and functional principle. Instead of oil or other lubricants, our high-speed turbo blowers use air in their bearing system to ensure increased reliability and help customers reduce their energy consumption and operating costs.

The primary features of the AERZEN air bearing system include:

  • A theoretical bearing lifetime of at least 80,000 operating hours
  • High performance without extra features such as emergency bearing, electric control system, and auxiliary air foil bearings.
  • Excellent operational reliability, even with voltage fluctuations and power failures
  • Insensitive to pressure peaks and compressor (surge)
  • Unlimited start/ stops per hour

Pinpoint control of load cycles. For a completely new kind of efficiency in aeration tanks.

Variable air requirements and peculiarities in the design and construction of aeration tanks are challenges for any sewage treatment plant. The result: extremely high energy consumption that can make up to 80% of total costs. The solution: innovative combinations of blower, hybrid and turbo blowers from AERZEN. Maximum energy efficiency for basic loads, pinpoint adjustments for peak loads. The result: hitherto unknown efficiencies over the entire operation. The investment can pay for itself in as little as 2 years!


Dynamism. Performance. Intelligence. A Turbo in every detail

They are decisive for performance values and energy efficiency: the impellers, drive motors and frequency converters in each variable frequency controlled unit. That is why we have something against standards in this regard. Instead: key components developed especially for different areas of application. So that when we call it a Turbo, it really is a Turbo.

Intelligent and farsighted. This is how high efficiency is controlled today

High-performance technologies such as the Aerzen Turbo help reduce energy consumption in aeration tanks. Provided, of course, that they run at optimal efficiency. In the Turbo Generation 5, this is handled by AERZEN’s advanced control and operating system. One of the many success stories from our R&D teams in their work on the new Turbo Generation 5.
