Working Mechanism
- The casing contains a central rotor with vanes that move eccentrically.
- Rotating the rotor results in the outward movement of the vanes, forming a seal.
- Fluid or gas is drawn into a sealed chamber by the rotating vanes.
- The sealed chamber's volume decreases, causing compression of the trapped fluid / gas.
- The outlet port allows the compressed fluid / gas to be expelled.
- The process of suction, compression, and discharge is continuously sustained by the rotor's rotation.
