What is a Centrifugal Fan?
A centrifugal fan is a mechanical device that uses centrifugal force generated by rotating impellers to move air or gas. Unlike axial fans, which move air parallel to the fan's axis, centrifugal fans direct air at a 90-degree angle, increasing both air pressure and flow efficiency. These bladed fans are commonly found in ventilation, heating, and cooling systems, where consistent airflow is critical.
Thanks to their high-pressure capabilities, centrifugal fans are perfect for applications requiring steady, powerful airflow in industrial and commercial settings. Fans are typically used in environments where higher pressure and the ability to handle high-temperature gases or materials are necessary.
Centrifugal Blowers
Our centrifugal fan blowers are engineered for heavy industrial materials handling, high-pressure environments, and custom applications. These blower fans come in a wide variety of sizes and motor configurations to fit specific operational requirements.
Backward inclined and radial bladed centrifugal fans are particularly effective for materials handling, air conveying, and clean air processes in sectors like the food industry. Their low noise operation and robust construction make them suitable for both commercial and industrial use. The inclusion of external rotor motors in certain models enhances efficiency, contributing to longer operational life and reduced energy consumption.
Benefits of Industrial Centrifugal Fans
Investing in industrial centrifugal fans comes with a variety of benefits tailored to high-demand applications:
- High Volume Air Movement - Designed to handle large volumes of air, our fans are ideal for extensive ventilation and exhaust systems.
- Higher Pressure Capabilities - Centrifugal fans can generate higher pressure compared to axial fans, making them suitable for processes requiring forceful air delivery.
- Energy Efficient Design - With optimised fan designs and external rotor motors, these fans maximise performance while minimising energy consumption.
- Durability in High-Temperature Environments - Built to withstand high temperatures, our centrifugal fans are ideal for industrial processes involving heat.
- Versatile Applications - From bladed fans for precise airflow control to blower fans for powerful exhaust, there is a type of fan suited for every industrial need.
- Quiet Operation - Despite handling high volumes of air and generating higher pressure, our fans operate with minimal noise, making them perfect for environments where sound control is important.
Fanquip’s centrifugal fans combine durability, efficiency, and customisable options to meet the unique challenges of industrial and commercial operations. Whether you need to move large volumes of air, handle high temperatures, or achieve energy-efficient performance, our wide range of blower fans and centrifugal fans will exceed expectations.
