• Suitable for extracting fumes, steam, or dust in specific processing areas.
• Can be integrated into drying or cooling systems for certain food products.
• Often employed in pneumatic conveying systems for light food ingredients or waste.

Typical Specifications

Typical airflow capacity

For this class of centrifugal fan with a 7.5kW motor, airflow can typically range from 3,000 to 15,000 m³/hr, depending on static pressure requirements.

Typical static pressure

Units of this type commonly generate static pressures between 500 and 2,000 Pa, suitable for ducted systems.

Power supply

This unit requires a 7.5kW, 3-phase electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz in the UK.

Drive type

Features a direct drive mechanism, which generally offers higher efficiency and lower maintenance compared to belt-driven systems.

Inlet/outlet configuration

Equipped with a flanged inlet; outlet configuration would typically be square or rectangular, also flanged for duct connection.

Construction materials

Commonly constructed from mild steel or, for food contact or corrosive environments, stainless steel.
