Industrial Hanging Fine-Mist Fogging Fan

Aquafog Turbo XE atomizing fans can be used for evaporative cooling or indoor and outdoor humidification applications. The nozzle-free fans can atomize ordinary water supplies into a fine, mist-like fog. Utilizing high-speed centrifugal force and powerful airflow, the unit can propel a misty-fog stream up to 35' away and can humidify up to 40,000 ft3. An optional dwell-free oscillator can be added for applications that require sweeping action to increase coverage and enhance circulation.

Motorized Impeller

Model XR combines the efficiency of a backward-curved airfoil impeller with an external rotor motor. Suitable for supply or exhaust applications, the motorized impeller is fully speed controllable. Both motor and impeller are located directly in the airstream, where the impeller acts as a rotating heat sink to ensure heat dissipation and efficient motor cooling.

Axial Fans

Line includes axial fans in seven sizes, sixteen models and three mounting types. Standard features include spark-resistant cast aluminum propellers and totally enclosed (TEFC or TENV) motors. Explosionproof motors are also available. With capacities up to 28,490 cfm, the fans can be used for spot cooling of heat-generating equipment where large volumes of air are required; temporary spot cooling; and cooling personnel.

Direct-Drive Panel Fan

Model DPF offers belt-driven performance without the use of belts and pulleys. The key is an adjustable-pitch impeller that can be set to meet exact performance requirements. The direct-drive panel fan ships standard with a deep drawn venturi. Fan housings are available in several materials, including painted steel, aluminum and stainless steel. Impeller blade pitch adjustment can be carried out while still attached to the fan’s drive shaft. Impeller blades are available in cast aluminum or nylon-glass fiber construction. Panels can be custom formed for non-standard applications. Performance ranges from 300 to 100,000 cfm.

Airfoil Wheel

Type FA wheel is offered in diameters from 12 to 60" in both clockwise and counter-clockwise rotations. With an airfoil design, the wheel is manufactured as a single piece in solid fiberglass and coated with a corrosion-resistant vinylester resin. Features include tapered inlet side and airfoil blades, and it has non-overloading horsepower characteristic curve. When used in conjunction with a precision inlet cone, it efficiently moves large volumes of air at high pressures with low noise characteristics at low RPM.
