Industrial fans for process cooling

Air-cooling by passing air through cooling coils is primarily a food industry application, particularly in frozen food plants.

The fans can be either forced-draft or induced-draft types but will all share the same requirement of ease of cleaning, usually dictating construction from stainless steel and a polished ‘crevice-free’ design. Depending upon the industry and application, the impeller may need to be made from corrosion resistant material and able to withstand extremes of temperature.
