In each industry
Tea
Tea factories use hot air fans on the withering troughs and dryers, exhaust fans on the dryer outlet, and dust extraction on the sorting and packing lines. Trough fans are the characteristic duty: large volume, low pressure, long running hours.
By process
The same duty, selected for the gas of each process.
Drive and construction
Offered direct mounted on the motor shaft, direct coupled, or belt driven. Material of construction follows the medium and temperature: mild steel, stainless steel, PP-FRP lined, MS FRP lined or MS rubber lined.
Testing and balancing
Performance tested as per IS 4894, BS 848 Part I, or as per customer standards. Rotors are statically and dynamically balanced to grade G 6.3 or G 2.5 as per ISO 21940-11.
Information needed to select or quote
- Duty point. Volume flow and static pressure at the fan inlet, with the gas density and temperature or the conditions to derive it.
- Operating conditions. Site altitude, normal operating temperature and continuous or intermittent duty.
- Gas stream. Dust loading and particle size, corrosive species, moisture, upset temperature and any tendency of the material to deposit on the impeller.
- Mechanical. Rotation viewed from the drive end, discharge orientation and motor power.
