Industrial Fans



 .

Industrial fans and blowers are machines whose primary function is to provide and accommodate a large flow of air or gas to various parts of a building or other structures. This is achieved by rotating a number of blades, connected to a hub and shaft, and driven by a motor or turbine

The flow rates of these mechanical fans range from approximately 200 cubic feet (5.7 m3) to 2,000,000 cubic feet (57,000 m3) per minute. A blower is another name for a fan that operates where the resistance to the flow is primarily on the downstream side of the fan.

Even though industrial fans are extremely large and powerful than what we discussed so far, we thought of including an overview of them just as a comparison. Industrial Fans are usually large axial fans with very powerful motors. They help in pushing large amounts of air (or gases) in factories, warehouses and industries.
