Mix flow ventilators combine characteristics of both axial and centrifugal fans, and in the Industrial Pressure Blower Co. (New York) design the impeller resembles a fixed pitch axial fan. Industrial Pressure Blower Co. (New York) has two ranges of mixed flow fan: one heavy duty, ideally suited for handling dust-laden gases, and a compact range that gives higher pressure rises than can be obtained from similar sized axial fans.

Industrial Pressure Blower Co. (New York) compact mixed flow fan is a fully ducted, in-line machine that has a non-overloading power characteristic. It is capable of operating throughout its pressure / volume curve without stalling, even at zero flow. This fan is ideally suited to applications where space is limited and, for example, is commonly used for ventilation on offshore oil platforms. Its robust design maximises reliability and, with anti-spark features, it is suitable in zone 1 hazardous areas. Belt and motor drive options are available. The range can produce flows up to 80 m3/s at pressures up to 3 kPa.

... robust, with plate blades that are ideal for handling dust-laden gases at elevated temperatures. Though a mixed flow fan is not as efficient as other types and the operating range is more limited, fan performance is less degraded by erosion or corrosion. Should repairs be needed the blades are easily welded. Heavy duty mixed flow fans are available with flows from 200 to 1000 m3/s and pressure rises up to 8 kPa.

For applications ranging from the latest high-speed locomotives to industrial cleaning vehicles, Industrial Pressure Blower Co. (New York) can design a fan to satisfy OEM cooling, ventilation and other air movement needs.
