Ventilating Fan Airfoil Fan Kits provide the user with the flexibility to custom build a fan from individual components to meet their specific air performance and configuration requirements. With its airfoil wheel, the Fan Kit is efficient, economical and versatile. Among the components offered are airfoil wheels, inlet cones with or without integral vanes, housings and shaft coolers, as well as shafts and bearings.

Some features of Ventilating Fan Airfoil Air-Kits include:

• Aerodynamic airfoil wheels feature hollow blades with weep holes to prevent moisture retention
• Standard and RA design for lower pressures
• Inlet Volume Controls are ideal for variable volume systems
• Shafts and bearings also available

Any supply air or clean exhaust application is ideal for Ventilating Fan Airfoil Fan Kit. The Fan Kits fill most general industrial and commercial air moving needs, including installations handling lint dust, fumes or moisture. Applications include ovens, dryers and kilns as well as penthouses, plenums and panel walls.

Ventilating Fan Airfoil SQA Plug Fans are designed ...
... for easy mounting in ovens, dryers, kilns, and can be installed in penthouses, panel walls, ceilings, floors... just cut a hole large enough for the fan shaft and install.

Operating range of CBC SQA Plug fans is:

Maximum CFM: 48,000
Maximum Static Pressure: 13" wg
Maximum Temperature: 800°
Fan Sizes: 12-1/4" to 44-1/2"

Features of Ventilating Fan SQA Plug fans can be summarized as:

• Unhoused wheel installs inside unit with the drive panel on the outside
• Stable air flow over entire performance range
• Large flush mounting panels minimize panel wall loading

Ventilating Fan Direct Drive Airfoil Plug Fan offers a compact economical alternative to belt drive plug fans. Applications include packaged equipment for cooling, drying, dust collection, recirculation and aeration systems. For retrofit installations, the compact direct drive configuration allows greater system flexibility. When coupled with a variable frequency drive, performance is no longer limited to synchronous motor speeds. Direct drive simplicity converts to lower initial cost and less operating expense, as there are no fan shafts, bearings, belts or guards to maintain. Plug fans utilize Buffalo Fan's quiet, efficient airfoil wheel with hyperbolic inlet cone. Exceptional rigidity is afforded by the heavy steel panel with flanged edges and gusseted motor base. Plug fans are designed for horizontal or vertical installation.

Operating range of Ventilating Fan DD Airfoil Plug Fans:

Maximum CFM: 26,000
Maximum Static Pressure: 12" wg
Maximum Temperature: 180°
Fan Sizes: 12-1/4" to 30"

Features of Ventilating Fan DD Airfoil Plug Fans are:

• Unhoused wheel installs inside unit with the drive panel on the outside
• Stable air flow over entire performance range
• Large flush mounting panels minimize panel wall loading
