AMETEK Rotron Trimline blowers fit in tight enclosures

By Stacy Combest | July 17, 2013

Compact inverted blowers from AMETEK Rotron provide concentrated high volume airflow for critical cooling applications in ruggedized computers, avionics and communications. The Trimline blowers have their motors located inside the squirrel cage wheel for reduced size and inherent motor cooling. Their small size allows easy mounting in any attitude to direct the flow where it is required.

In higher impedance systems, inverted blower technology can deliver twice the airflow of axial fans of the same size, with less generated noise. It also requires significantly less clear space in front and back so it can be mounted in closer proximity to other components.

The Trimline’s concentrated air streams deliver effective cooling in high impedance applications typical of miniaturized enclosures. The blowers are effective in cooling fins on external heat sinks. Due to the Trimline’s low noise signature, they can also be used as retrofit crew member comfort blowers in military vehicles where air conditioning is not practical.

Trimline Blowers

New Trimline inverted blower provides directed high airflow cooling for tightly packaged electronics.

Applications include:

  • Military and general aviation avionics
  • Ruggedized computers
  • Rack-mounted electronics
  • Heat exchangers
  • Mobile environmental control systems

With a unique form factor measuring only 12.06 x 12.06 x 4.06 cm (4.75 x 4.75 x 1.60 in), the blowers fit easily into slim chassis enclosures. For even tighter situations, Trimline blowers measuring 9.9 x 12.06 x 4.06 cm (3.9 x 4.75 x 1.60 in) are available. Speeds range from 2700 to 6300 RPM; airflows range from 21 to 45 CFM.
