Safety on a roll
July 1st 2007

The adventure activity Zorbing provides participants with the thrill of being cocooned in a double-skinned inflated ball travelling down a steep hill while cushioned safely from bumps and bounces.

A key factor to the success of Zorbing is ensuring the correct level of inflation at all times. Helping Zorb South, near Dorchester, to achieve this is a MultiStage blower from Air Control Industries.

Before every trip downhill, each Zorb is checked and inflated as necessary using the MultiStage to ensure a safe, fun ride. The 2MS11 blower with backward curved blades can be used for both inflation and deflation.

It is designed to deliver air at a high pressure yet consume minimal power. It is a single phase unit driven by a 2-pole motor with the impeller mounted directly on the shaft, a design that is said to ensure maximum efficiency and quiet operation.
