Radial Blade Fans (Radial flow)
These industrial fans are generally used for material handling or when the industrial fan is positioned on the dirty side of a dust collector. The fan impeller design reduces the risk of the fan becoming blocked. These types of industrial fans are widely used in the timber, textile and paper industries. The general efficiencies of the radial fan impeller industrial fan design are typically less than that of a backward inclined fan design
Since this style of industrial fan is used generally for material handling applications, they are often made form a better grade of material to enhance longevity. Fan engineers pay close attention to the design of the central plate and hub arrangement and will also specify strict weld procedures where applicable. This, along with the material selection, will help ensure the best possible radial blade industrial design resulting in minimal repair and replacement cost in the future.
