Minebea to Launch Industry's First(*note) World Wide Input Voltage Model of the Compact & light High-Efficiency "DC Brushless High-Pressure Blower" Series

On April 26, 2010, Minebea Co., Ltd. ("Minebea") will launch a new blower model (600W) that works globally at a voltage between AC90V and AC264V—a new line-up of the "DC Brushless High-Pressure Blower (800W, 1200W)" series (the "High-Pressure Blower Series") for which Minebea has enjoyed a good reputation with compactness, light, high efficiency and high power (high rotation).

The High-Pressure Blower Series, released in October 2008, uses a DC brushless motor as its driving source, and compared to existing high-pressure blowers using an AC motor, features more compactness, higher efficiency, higher power (higher rotation) and less power consumption. The Series also enables more flexible layouts by separating its power supply control unit from its blower unit. Since the start of the release, it has enjoyed a good reputation with these characteristics not available in existing products, and has been adopted in various applications—such as printing machines, folding machines, semiconductor equipment and dust extractors.

The World Wide Input Voltage Model to be released shortly can work at global power sources (AC90 V~AC264V), and deliver the same performance globally without being subject to input voltage. Minebea aims to expand sales by promoting use in all fields that require high-pressure airflow at home and overseas.

Features (* Please refer to the attached specifications for details)

  • Uses a DC brushless motor as its driving source.
  • Realizes the miniaturization of its blower unit by separating the blower unit from its power supply control unit.
  • Incorporates a power supply with harmonic countermeasures in conformity with IEC61000_3_2.
  • Outputs an error signal when an abnormal condition (abnormal current, rotor lock or temperature anomaly) occurs.
  • Environmentally-friendly product. *Product in conformity with the EU's RoHS directive
  • Safety Standard EN60950-1 2nd

Applications

Collation machines, printing machines, conveyers/packaging machines, suction machines, dust catchers, semiconductor equipment, plant air, food packaging machines, etc.
