Canadian Blower Duct Fans

Canada Blower Duct Fans have been designed for low-pressure ventilation and industrial-process applications where space is at a premium. Uses include heat, smoke and fume removal, process drying with ambient or preheated air; comfort and process cooling and general ventilation. All ventilation applications can be handled in either supply or exhaust ventilator configurations.

Numerous fan modifications and accessories make the Duct Fan suitable for a wide range of systems. In ventilation applications where equipment space is at a premium, the compact flow-through design of the Duct Fan can reduce system space requirements by more than 50% over conventional centrifugal fans. The straight, in-line design eliminates the need for costly, space-consuming transitions, elbows, and inlet boxes.

Additional HVAC application advantages and installed cost savings are provided by the Duct Fan’s five predesigned ventilator mounting fan arrangements. Canada Blower Duct Fans also utilize the same blower housing and flange dimensions as the Tubeaxial and Vaneaxial Fan lines allowing interchangeability due to system redesign or process modification.

Duct Fans offer steel wheels in all sizes. Each fan wheel is designed to maximize fan performance by optimizing the shape, number and pitch of blades with hub diameters. Two distinct wheel concepts are used to meet specific volume and pressure requirements across the entire line of 12 sizes. Each Canada Blower fan wheel is designed to provide smooth airflow performance, minimizing the characteristic stall region typically exhibited in axial ventilator designs.

HEAT FAN CONSTRUCTION: Duct Fans, with heat-fan construction, are ideal for industrial oven and dryer exhaust systems where pressure requirements are minimal and compact, light-weight designs are advantageous. With heat fan construction, Duct Fans are capable of handling airstream temperatures to 350°F in ambient environments up to 120°F. For higher temperature applications, the Duct Fan, with heat-fan construction, induces a flow of cooler, ambient air through the belt well and inner tube, cooling the fan's internal components. Depending on temperature requirements, modifications include high-temperature fan wheel, special drive components, and modifications to provide internal ambient air cooling. Fans handling hot airstreams must have sufficient airflow and be kept in operation until airstream temperatures cool below 120°F to prevent damage to the fan unit. The Duct Fan's ambient air cooling system is only effective while the fan is operating.

Canadian Blower and Forge Duct TubeAxial and VaneAxial Fans for variable volume air handling applications utilize adjustable pitch high efficiency aerofoil aluminum propellers to provide optimum performance. Buffalo Type VPS Adjustax Fans have an internal blade pitch adjustment, which allows to bring variable air volume capability for air conditioning fans, heating and ventilating applications.

Clamshell Design Vaneaxial Fans are used primarily in applications where ready access to the interior of the fan is desired. The entire bearing assembly can be removed quickly and easily from the fan, without removing the fan from the stack. Heavy duty pillow block anti-friction bearings with split inner cylinder are standard. Clamshell design vaneaxial fans are avaiable with steel wheels and aluminum wheels.

Spray Booth Design Vaneaxial Fans are available in standard belt drive arrangement 9. These fans are designed for use in spraybooth installations, or in a variety of applications where requirements make it necessary to clean the fan periodically. Standard fan accessories include: inlet / outlet cones, inlet bell, screensfor fan, cone, or bell; belt guard, weather proof motor and drive cover, spark resitant fan construction with aluminum wheels, or steel wheels with bronze tipped blades; support legs, suspension clips, shaft seals are also available as standard options.

Spark Resistant X-proof construction on tubeaxial and vaneaxial fans is available in all aluminum airstream (AMCA A) construction; aluminum wheel (AMCA B) construction; and steel wheel with bronze tipped blades and shaft retainer (AMCA C) construction.

High temperature fan construction: upon request Buffalo vaneaxial fans can be furnished with optional high temperature construction for oven exhaust, or combusting gases exhaust applications.

Corrosion resistant construction and chemical duty construction: for corrosive environment all vaneaxial fans are available in FRP construction, as well as in 304 SS, 316 SS, or 316 L stainless steel construction. Special coatings are optional and selection is made based on the application.

Of the four centrifugal designs, the backwardly inclined fans are the most efficient, and therefore, the quietest. Those with airfoil-shaped blades offer the highest efficiencies, for clean air environments, while those with single-thickness blades can be used in applications where light dust or moisture is present, although the efficiencies are somewhat lower.

Certain types of axial fans offer the next highest efficiencies. An excellent example is the  Vaneaxial fan that uses airfoil shaped blades in an in-line flow design. This fan is used to handle high volumes of clean air at low pressures, which is a typical ventilation application.

Radial fans are typically low efficiency, open designs for special purpose applications, such as bulk material handling, or exhausting / supplying lower volumes of air at higher pressures. A radial fan will be much louder than a backwardly-inclined fan operating under the same volume and pressure conditions.

Radial Tip fans, commonly used to handle larger volumes of air that contains particles or material, exhibit sound characteristics similar to the radial fans. The sound spectra of radial and radial tip fans contain amplitude spikes at various frequencies, and a noticeable spike at the blade pass frequency.

The forward-curved fan design operates at speeds that are much slower than the other fan types, which results in lower noise levels from mechanical operation and vibration. However, because of its modest efficiencies, a forward curved fan may be noisier than a backwardly-inclined fan when operating at comparable volume and pressure. The sound spectrum of the forward-curved fan shows a slower rate of reduction in amplitudes than the other centrifugal types, and because of the large number of blades, the blade pass frequency occurs much later in the spectrum and is not predominant.

The moving components of the fan - the motor, bearings, and drive - produce sound. This too can be transmitted through the system via the fan structure or shaft, or when these components are in the airstream. Motor sound will vary with speed, enclosure, electrical characteristics, and even the manufacturer. Antifriction bearings can be used to reduce bearing noise, and proper drive selection will reduce the likelihood of belt hop, or slap. Of course, proper maintenance must be employed to keep the moving parts running smoothly, and quietly.

Excessive vibration can significantly add to the overall noise level of an installation. This will occur if the fan or any of its components are not adequately balanced, if the fan is installed on an insufficient foundation, or if the fan is not properly isolated from other system components. For example, it is not uncommon for the fan s support structure or ductwork to have a natural frequency at the fan s operating speed or blade pass frequency, either of which can cause the system to resonate at that frequency, increasing the sound levels, and the possibility of damaging the installation. These risks can be eliminated by changing the speed of the fan, installing appropriate isolation, and / or detuning of the fan or affected system components.

dBA is a useful measurement for evaluating the overall noise level at a particular location, but this measurement takes into account all of the sound sources affecting that particular location, which include the sounds from all equipment in the area, natural sounds of the environment, and from other environmental factors. Some of these factors are the current physical properties of the air such as temperature, humidity, and pressure, whether the location is outside or inside, the size and material of the room. All of these affect the sound pressure experienced by the listener, and recorded by the sound level meter.

Published fan sound power ratings and corrections only reflect noise created by air turbulence within the fan. Because of the infinite variables, mechanical noise and vibration noise are impossible to accurately predict, and are not included in the rating.
