Where is the rear blower located on the Mercedes-Benz Vito?
1 Answers
Mercedes-Benz Vito blower is located at the upper part of the decorative cover in the passenger footwell. Composition of the blower: The blower mainly consists of the following six parts: motor, air filter, blower body, air chamber, base (also serving as an oil tank), and oil drip nozzle. The blower operates via an eccentrically mounted rotor inside the cylinder, changing the volume between the vanes in the rotor slots to suck in, compress, and discharge air. During operation, the pressure difference of the blower automatically delivers lubrication to the oil drip nozzle, which drips into the cylinder to reduce friction and noise while preventing gas backflow. This type of blower is also known as a sliding vane blower. Features of the blower: Since the impeller operates without friction inside the blower housing, no lubrication is required, ensuring the discharged gas is oil-free. This makes it an ideal air source for pneumatic conveying in industries such as chemical and food processing.
