    General Description

    The C38 is the most powerful centrifugal supercharger of
    the Rotrex standard product range. Countless
    number of large scale applications can be boosted
    by this very efficient and silent unit which supplies
    air flow up to 0.63 kg/s.

    Impeller speeds of up to 90,000 rpm are achieved
    through the patented hi-speed planetary traction drive
    which combines small size with exceptional
    performance and durability.

    The very low noise and vibration characteristic as well
    as the high efficiency of these superchargers set the
    industry standard for what is achievable.




    Applications

    The C38 range is designed for four stroke gasoline engines with a
    supercharged output up to 530kW. Where one supercharger is not
    enough, it is possible to use two units to support large amounts of power
    in a twin-charger configuration. The C38 is also ideal for the supply of clean
    pressurized air for other applications such as industrial systems, fuel cell power
    plants etc.

    The groundbreaking compact size enables a very flexible supercharger installation particularly on engine
    applications with tight space and where weight and size are essential.

    Rotrex uses as standard an 8 ribbed poly V-belt pulley in high strength steel. Pulley diameter ranges from 70
    to 110mm in 5mm steps.

    The supercharger can be ordered with the compressor housing mounted in one of six different outlet
    positions with 60 degree intervals to allow easy adoption to any application. For specific outlet positions
    please refer to dimension drawing found in this document.


    Oil system

    The supercharger features an integrated dual-action oil pump that works as a dry sump scavenging pump in
    addition to being the oil supply pump. The self-contained oil system allows flexible positioning of the
    supercharger on the vehicle and has the benefit of fitting the supercharger without worrying about tampering
    with the oil system of the engine or any other accessory.

    The Rotrex C-type supercharger has been developed and extensively tested with the special Rotrex traction
    fluid. To maintain the ultimate level of performance and durability it is very important that the unit is
    exclusively run with special Rotrex traction fluid. Make sure the inlet oil temperature is within the range
    specified in the table on the next page. Any deviation from the standard Rotrex oil circuit requires approval
    from Rotrex.
