Runtech to deliver five vacuum systems to a Chinese tissue maker

A confidential tissue manufacturer in China has ordered vacuum system rebuilds for their five tissue machines. In the rebuild, the existing liquid ring pumps are replaced with RunEco EP Turbo Blowers. Updating the technology will bring substantial energy savings to the mill.

Runtech delivery consists of five RunEco EP Turbo Blowers with EcoDrop water separators. Each Turbo Blower will replace two to three liquid ring pumps, resulting in 35-40% savings in energy.

Environmentally friendly and energy efficient, RunEco paper machine vacuum system provides a reliable, completely water free vacuum solution that is ideal for industrial paper machine vacuum applications. Less energy and no water contribute to lower CO2 emissions and smaller carbon footprint.

EP Turbo Blowers are modern blowers with integrated high-speed motor controlled by an ABB frequency converter. With this technology rotation speed and vacuum level can be adjusted according to the process requirements. Impellers mounted directly on the motor shaft make construction simple with only two bearings in the whole EP Turbo Blower. It is simple and trouble-free to operate. Compact construction makes the installation fast and easy.
