Axial Fans

Axial Fans

Axial flow fans or industrial axial fans move an air stream along the axis of the fan. The way these fans work is similar to the propeller on an airplane: the fan blades generate an aerodynamic lift that pressurizes the air. Axial fans use a propeller to draw the air into the fan then discharge it in the same axial direction. Typical types of industrial axial fans include:

  • Tube axial fans (also called duct fans)
  • Panel fans (also called wall fans)
  • Personnel coolers
  • Roof Ventilators
  • Air circulators
  • Vaneaxial

Propeller types may include:

  • Fixed pitch
  • Adjustable pitch
  • Swept back design
  • Impeller
  • Low noise
  • Reversible
Bifurcated Fans

Bifurcated Fans – Bifurcated Fans are direct driven axial fans where the motor is encased in a metal box to isolate it from the airflow. The term "bifurcated" means split in two branches, or parts. In terms of a bifurcated fan, the fan is constructed so that the fan rests between two forked channels, which carry the air, creating a void behind the axis of the fan itself. This makes bifurcated fans ideal for exhausting or re-circulating fumes, gases and hot air up to high temperatures. The bifurcated fan motor must have access to ambient air, and have non-overloading characteristics. Bifurcated fans are typically used when the motor needs to be shielded from hot gases or other threatening conditions.

HLVS Fans – HVLS fans blanket a very large area with constantly moving air to create an expansive comfort zone. As a result, the big ceiling fan (up to 24 feet in diameter) can create an evaporative cooling effect during the summer months while de-stratifying uneven floor to ceiling temperatures in the winter. This results in significant energy savings since the heating system cycles less frequently.
