Normally heat or pungent odours are the reason for installation, but if dust is the cause of problems, this can also be extracted as easily as air or gases.
The roof fans are strategically placed at a significant distance from the major opening of a workshop, storage depot, processing plant or other large complex, to create an air flow dragged in through that main opening. Once drawn in through the major opening the air is expelled to create an artificial draft giving employees cooler and fresher air. The fast purging of dust affected internal environments is easily achieved using these fans.
Motor speeds range from 720rpm to 1440rpm,with voltages in either 1Ph 240V or 3Ph 415V.
They are supplied with bases matching any of the six major roof profiles, therefore making installation simple enough for in-house staff.
“Using a profile base, installation costs and time are cut by as much as 60% and the unit can be installed by customers quite easily. No upstand is needed, while bindmesh protection is provided,” the company said.
Made from fibreglass/alloy, Fanquip hooded roof fans are rated as heavy duty but they are lightweight and can withstand the force of extreme weather conditions and the threat of erosion.
