Axial flow fan

A roof fan can be the same name referring to two different types of fans. On the one hand, it is the classic fan that is mounted indoors in homes and spins around to create an air flow in a room (these are also called HVLS fans (High-Volume Low-Speed)). And partly it is the type of fans that we work with – i.e. fans that are mounted outdoors on roofs belonging to e.g. apartment buildings, schools or industrial premises. A roof fan is a fan that is part of the ventilation system and has the task of extracting hot air, moisture and pollution from the indoor space and blowing them outside. The fans are usually designed to be robust and weather resistant as they are mounted on the roof. Of course, there are a variety of material designs adapted to the application needs.

Renewable energy sources are something that is becoming more relevant every day. Biogas is an alternative and here FläktComp Sweden can contribute with high-quality fans that ensure that the biogas is handled correctly. Biogas fans are a type of gas-tight radial fan, adapted for use in biogas environments where the demands on materials and performance are very high. The fans are usually delivered as a complete unit consisting of fan wheel, motor, cover and vibration feet. In order to choose the right biogas fan, one should start from operating data and process design, as well as whether there are any special requirements.

ATEX fans are fans that are installed in environments where there is a risk that an explosive atmosphere can form. Therefore, these fans need to be designed according to the ATEX directives. Depending on the classification of the environment, internal solutions inside the fan, such as e.g. spark protection in the fan cover or non-sparking materials. While in other cases, EX-rated motors are also required. Explosive gases require special fans. Our factories are certified according to ATEX for the manufacture of fans for Zone 1 and 2 as well as for Zone 21 and 22 containing dust. The design, production and use of fans for explosive media or environment is clearly specified in Europe by standardized directives. To choose the right ATEX fan, one should start from operating data and process design, as well as whether there are any special requirements.

A smoke fan is a fan whose task is to operate under extreme heat conditions, usually in the event of a fire. Smoke fans are a very important part of many of today’s safety systems in tunnels and buildings. There are a variety of standards that smoke fans are classified within, it can e.g. be F200 Classification for operation at 200° C for 2 hours F300 Classification for operation at 300° C for 2 hours F400 Classification for operation at 400° C for 2 hours Our many years of experience and large product range give our customers peace of mind. Development, design and manufacture of fans for smoke gas is done with the highest precision and with the highest quality materials. A smoke fan can be designed as an axial fan or impulse fan. To choose the right smoke fan, you should start from operating data and system design, as well as whether there are any special requirements.
