Industrial Blower Fans – FRP Fans

Northern Industrial Blower Fans Supply Co. is an engineering distributor of plastic and fiberglass fans and blowers for industry applications where aggressive media must be moved. Plastic fans include polypropelene, PVC, PVDF, fire retardant and UV resistant PPs.

Applications for Corrosion and Chemical Resistant Fans include:

* University, Medical Research, Defence Labs, Fume Hoods OEMs, Pharmaceutical Labs

On most campuses there is a certain number of fume hoods that are used for various acids testing to break down materials for analysis. HCl and Perchloric Acid are the ones used most commonly. Fume hoods and Chemical resistant fans are needed.

* High Technology Semiconductors, PCBs, and Photonics

Chip makers use acids to clean metal before they mount thin film on the metal upon which they lay circuitry.

* Printed Circuit Board Industry

FRP fans are frequenly used for clean rooms.

* Waste water and Sewage Treatment Plants

Hydrogen Sulfide builds up (H2S) in sewage plant facilities and causes an odor problem that has to be treated. Depending on the size of these stations corrosion resistant fans are needed. This gas can also be very volatile and will require explosion proof motor and static grounding of the fan housing by graphite impregnation that Northen Industrial Co. can provide too.

* Salt Air and High Humidity Environments

Any facility near the salt air is also a good place for plastic fans and the humidity will eat through metal fans.

* Steel and Wire Manufacturing

As the steel comes in and sits at these plants impurities and scale develop on the steel or the wire that needs to be cleaned off before the wire or steel can be properly worked with. Acid baths are needed for this and the corrosive fumes coming off these aced baths are highly corrosive…

* Stainless Steel and other Metal Production Facilities

In tha annealing and Pickling process acid baths are used to strip scale off the steel after the annealing process that smoothed out grain patterns that may have formed during the annealing process. Later on acids are used again to support oxidation.

* Chemical and Petrochemical Industries

* Jet Engine and Power Plant Turbine Manufacturing or Servicing

Molted Salt tanks are often used here to descale metals coming out of hot furnaces. Pickling and cleaning of titanium which is used in Jet engine parts also utilize acid baths as does nickel plating.

* Electroplating and Metal Finishing

These industries use fiberglass fans and fume scrubbers.

* Scrubber OEMs and Designers

FRP fans are standard components in fiberglass srubber designs.

* Industrial Galvanizers

* Printing Press Service Shops

* Chromatography

* Food Processing

Often in the food processing industry they wash equipment down with acids and other corrosives. Also they use fans for the humidity that builds up from the drying process of foods.

* Pulp and Paper Industry

Pulp and paper manufacturers are very wide users of fiberglass and other plastics fans for their boilers, exhaust and filtration systems.

Attic Fans

While most households are conscious on the convenience brought by nicely ventilated homes, many tend to overlook the attic as one of the areas to be considered. No one finds it comfortable staying for long hours in the closed attic because of the overwhelming heat that builds up in it. For this reason, it is necessary for everyone to consider installing attic ventilation fans in order to cool down the attic’s heat. This can have amazing advantages to the overall household convenience while minimizing energy costs.

Attic fans are, without a doubt, effective tools in bringing ample air exposure to the attic. Without these, all the heat from the sunlight is absorbed into the house even without bringing noticeable change to the temperature. The same thing happens even when the days are not too sunny. All the heat absorbed from its daily encounter with direct sunlight is trapped inside the attic. Not only that, since warm air naturally rises, all the heat in the house goes up to the attic. This can result to a throttling discomfort for anyone who goes in the attic to either look for something in the storage or to bring over new belongings for keeping.

Improper attic ventilation

Improper attic ventilation also has negative effects to things stored there. Too much heat can be bad for the things kept in the storage. It will gradually diminish their quality and can even damage those fragile and sensitive possessions. Moreover, the overly high temperature in the attic can result in the breaking of the house’s roof. Although these do not happen overnight, the effects will be noticeable in due time. The costs of replacements and repairs will only add to the family’s expenses. This is one of the reasons why mounting attic ventilation fans are necessary.

These attic fans also help minimize the development of excess moisture in the room. Lesser room moisture means it becomes impossible for molds and yeast to grow in the sheaths and frames under the roof especially on summer months. This is applies to both warm and cool seasons. For colder times, the cooling effects of attic ventilation fans are very helpful in preventing ice blocks from expanding on the rooftop. This protects the roof from being damaged by the ice.

There are many types of attic fans being sold in the market nowadays. However, using the solar types is highly recommended because of their economical value. These solar fans not only save on the electric bills but also reduce the amount of energy emitted by electronic appliances which are harmful to the environment. They are also as competent as the plug-in types of fans. While this choice of attic ventilation fans are more expensive compared to non-solar ones during the initial purchase, one cannot deny its long-term cost-efficiency.

People tend to neglect the importance of having a well-ventilated attic. Although it is just an extra space mostly utilized for storage, it significantly has effects on the amount of heat stored in the residence that has some lasting drawbacks to the house and the things kept in the attic. Therefore, it is important to take time to evaluate the attic’s ventilation needs and install efficient attic fans.

Industrial Ventilation Blower Fans

Industrial ventilation is of paramount importance to ensure the safety and well-being of employees. In industries where employees are subjected to dangerous chemicals, vapours and gasses on a daily basis, effective industrial ventilation can mean the difference between life and death. The basic concepts behind industrial ventilation are quite simple, but for it to be effective, the ventilation system needs to be installed by an experienced engineer.

Industrial Ventilation Uses

Industrial ventilation is a method of controlling employee exposure toxic chemicals, volatile airborne substances and flammable vapours by removing the contaminated air and replacing it with clean, fresh air. Used in a variety of different industries where poisonous vapours may be a problem, industrial ventilation is most often employed to remove welding and solvent vapours, oil mists and poisonous or volatile dust.

But industrial ventilation may not always be necessary. True, it should be preferable for the continued health of your employees, but regulations suggest that industrial ventilation only becomes compulsory when:

•the levels of contaminants exceed regulated levels;
•the lower explosive limit of flammable vapours is exceeded; or
•when the oxygen concentration in an area drops below 19.5%.

Industrial ventilation should also be considered before respirators. Not only is the system easier to maintain, but, in the long run, is a much more cost effective method of air purity control.

There are a number of industrial ventilation options available depending on the circumstances of your industry’s circumstances. The most basic is indoor quality ventilation that aims to provide fresh air throughout a building as part of the existing ventilation system. This option is primarily used in offices but can be effective in small industries where the concentration of contaminants is low.

Industrial Ventilation System

Easy to maintain and inexpensive to set up is dilution ventilation. This form of industrial ventilation uses large and powerful exhaust fans to extract contaminated air and to draw in clean air. It is very effective in clearing flammable vapours but is less effective for metal fumes or large concentrations of highly toxic materials. Depending on where the industry is located, the incoming air may require a lot of cooling or heating before it can be introduced into the industrial ventilation system, increasing the cost of using the system.

Dilution ventilation uses the simple principles of displacement and dilution to function. Some of the contaminated air is removed and replaced with large amounts of fresh air. The concentration of the contamination is effectively lowered, making it safer for people to work in the area.

Exhaust Ventilation

A more localised industrial ventilation system is local exhaust ventilation. This system captures the contaminations at the source and expels it before it has a chance to disperse into the air. For highly toxic contaminants or high concentrations, this industrial ventilation is probably one of the best. It does not require large amounts of fresh incoming air since the exhaust of contaminants is localised. This effective ventilation comes at a higher cost and more frequent maintenance, however.

Local exhaust ventilation works like a vacuum cleaner forcing contaminated air to move from a high concentration to a low concentration. It is perhaps one of the most effective industrial ventilation systems because it removes the contaminants at the source before it has a chance to spread.

There are effective industrial ventilation systems available for any industry. Some are simple to use, like dilution ventilation, while others are specifically made for highly toxic environments, like local exhaust ventilation. Whatever the decision, as long as the industrial ventilation keeps your employees safe from the contaminations of the substances they work with, it is doing its job.

Industrial Blowers, Fans and Ventilation

In almost any building or room used for commercial and industrial operations, it is quite likely that there are recurrent conditions that cause personnel discomfort. This is particularly true unless an expensive system for the circulation of refrigerated air (air conditioning) has been provided. In mild to hot weather, the discomfort of individuals is generally due to the build-up of intense heat within the structure. This becomes a severe problem in summer because the sun load on the building is added to the normal sources of heat build-up within the building. Most buildings have sufficient ventilation to remove smoke and fumes detrimental to health. However, it is unlikely that that system contributes very much toward the comfort of the individuals who occupy the mom or building.

Industrial Blowers and Fans for Ventilation

Humans are warm blooded animals whose normal body temperature is 98.6° Fahrenheit. However, we are most comfortable when the air temperature around us is in the 72°-to-78° range. If there is air motion around us, the effect of “wind chill”, or evaporative cooling, enables us to feel comfortable in a much higher air temperature. As the natural air temperature in most non-air conditioned buildings is much warmer than outside air temperatures, the problem of keeping humans comfortable is primarily a cooling problem. Of course, this is not the case in periods of very cold weather. Our purpose is to discuss the environmental problems that frequently exist in periods of moderate to hot weather. An effective, economical solution of these problems is vital to the success of any business.

Proper Industrial Fan Ventilation

If an individual is to produce maximum results, he must be allowed to function in an environment as nearly ideal as can be provided. In fact, the benefits in terms of efficiency and productivity can be substantial. Failure to provide a comfortable environment can be very expensive in terms of errors, work slow-down, complaints, absenteeism, etc. If the major factor is a hot, humid atmosphere, which may include smoke, dust, fumes or other irritants, a practical and effective approach to the problem is available. To obtain a reasonable degree of personnel comfort in hot weather, there are three basic factors that should be provided for in the ventilation and cooling system of a commercial or industrial building.

How to Remove Superheated Air Using Industrial Blowers & Fans

When the air temperature in the occupied area of a room or building exceeds 78° to 82°; most individuals begin to feel uncomfortably warm. The first step toward controlling the problem is to provide for the removal of excessively hot air from the building. This superheated air frequently mixes with the air in cooler areas of the building to produce an overall temperature increase. As superheated air is frequently localized around heat-producing machinery, it should be exhausted from the building near its source. This will prevent some undesirable air temperature increase in other areas. As a rule, outside air temperatures are considerably cooler than those inside a building. As superheated air is exhausted, provision should be made to replace it with fresh, cooler, outside air. Exhaust air in many areas of a building may have a temperature of 125° to 150°. This is usually the case where heat-producing machinery is in use. Similar air temperatures frequently occur near the roof or ceiling where rising warm air is trapped and further heated by the sun load on the roof. When this high temperature air is replaced by outside air, a substantial improvement in the average air temperature of the building results. Even where outside air temperature may be in the 80s or 90s, invariably it is 15° to 20° cooler than the air it replaces. This is a very important improvement to the individuals affected.

Industrial Blower Fan “Breeze Conditioning”

A very effective way to overcome the discomfort of a hot, stuffy room is to create a breeze. Before refrigerated air systems were invented, mechanical fans of every description were used to provide air circulation. The circulation of air over a person’s body immediately causes a cooling effect on the skin. When air is passed over a moist surface, it will evaporate some of the moisture and thus lower the temperature of the surface. This is precisely what occurs when air circulates across the human body.

By creating a gentle breeze throughout a room or area, a great deal of cooling comfort is provided for individuals who must work there. This pattern of air circulation is called “breeze conditioning” by Canada Blower engineers. It is effective even when the air temperature may be 85°’ to 95°. When this air circulation is achieved in combination with the factors mentioned in the paragraphs above, a very effective and practical solution is provided for the problem of personnel discomfort in hot weather.

Industrial Fans and Blowers vs Commercial Fans & Blowers

There is a difference between industrial and commercial grade fans construction. Industrial equipment is specifically designed and built to stand up to the rigors of an industrial application. The differences are concrete and easy to spot…if you know what to look for. Canada Blower designs and builds equipment strictly for industrial applications and has been doing it that way for over 100 years. Industrial fans and blowers are constructed of heavier duty materials and with higher quality components than their commercial counterparts. When properly applied, industrial equipment can withstand vibration, high and low temperatures, fumes and corrosive gases, materials in the airstream, and many other situations in an industrial environment. The equipment is built to provide longer service life, thus decreasing the need and frequency for replacements. Because industrial fans are expected to last longer, they are designed to be easy to install and maintain.

Industrial Blower Fan Features vs Commercial Blowers Fans

The best way to see the difference between an industrial product and a commercial product is to compare them feature for feature, including product weights. In the below example we’ll look at commercial panel fans versus Canada Blower industrial panel fans. The commercial grade panel fan has sheet metal, riveted blades, and a riveted hub. Canada Blower industrial panel fans have a solid, one-piece cast aluminum airfoil propeller or a cast aluminum adjustable pitch propeller. Lighter fans sometimes have balance weights clipped, bolted, or welded to the back of the fan blades, which can fly off during operation. Canada Blower cast aluminum propellers are precision ground and balanced, and therefore require no balance weights.

Industrial Fan Aerodynamic Design

Another difference between the commercial and industrial fan is in the aerodynamic design. Canada Blower originally developed the air seal venturi to improve performance. With this design, the propeller is larger in diameter than the venturi opening, thus creating an air seal. This design eliminates back flow of air pressure and increases air delivery by 10% or more. The way most other panel fans are designed, the propeller is smaller than the venturi opening. This type of fan is easier to manufacture, but significantly less efficient. The basket fan provides even less value because of the air that is lost around the sides of the fan. A Canada Blower venturi design fan pushes the air velocity from the blades out the front of the fan for increased spread and throw versus a commercial type fan.

Industrial Fans for Shipment

There are also installation differences to consider when purchasing a panel fan. Many commercial fans are shipped in parts. The motor and accessories may be shipped loose and must be assembled to the fan when received. In addition the commercial fan shown on the previous page has no provision for panel mounting or for accessory mounting. This means holes for bolts and mounting hardware must be drilled even before it can be completely assembled or installed. Canada Blower panel fans are shipped completely assembled and ready to install. A large selection of industrial fans are available from the stock program for quick shipment, including panel fan ventilators. You can be sure that Canada Blower equipment will provide many years of continuous service in your industrial air moving environment !

Industrial Blowers and Fans Ventilators and Industrial Ventilation

Energy recovery applications typically use two fans that provide air through a heat exchanger that “treats” the air by heating or cooling it before it enters the building. Canada Blower ’s plenum and forward curved fans are typically used for energy recovery applications and offer a wide range of performance and flexibility. Generator rooms require a wide range of fans to optimize the performance of generators and other equipment. Exhaust fans are used to prevent heat buildup within the generator room, while supply fans are used to provide fresh air for combustion and efficient generator performance. Room size, space limitations, and mounting capabilities will determine the exact type of fan needed for each specific application. As a leading manufacturer of air moving equipment, Canada Blower offers numerous fan types for meeting any generator room specification.

Industrial Pressure Blowers

Elevator shafts require proper air moving equipment to provide smoke control in the event of a fire. Pressurization is used to prevent smoke from migrating through elevator shafts to other floors, similar to how fans are used to control smoke in stairwells. Today’s elevator pressurization systems are designed to allow elevators to be used by firefighting teams. However, some systems are designed for the evacuation of handicapped individuals. While small amounts of smoke in an elevator may be tolerated by firefighters, smoke in an elevator and its entry and exit paths is unacceptable. Canada Blower ’s complete offering of smoke and heat exhaust fans are relied upon for elevator shaft exhaust/pressurization in emergency situations. Jet bridges are hallways used by passengers to board commercial airplanes. While these bridges are portable and movable, their continuous use requires an exhaust fan or gravity ventilator to prevent air from becoming stagnant. Fans and ventilators draw air into the bridge from the terminal and through the exit which is then exhausted through a fan or ventilator. Canada Blower provides a number of centrifugal roof exhausters and gravity relief ventilators for jet bridge exhaust applications.

Industrial Blowers for Ventilation

Enclosed or underground parking garages require ventilation to remove harmful vehicle emissions and other pollutants, while providing fresh air. Ventilation is also a requirement in the event of a fire to remove smoke and to provide a clear access for firefighters. Exhaust and supply fans are used in conjunction with ductwork to distribute air throughout the parking garage, providing a common system for both pollution and smoke control. Twin City Fan manufactures a complete line of axial flow fans designed for parking garage ventilation systems. Restroom exhaust fans are primarily used to reduce moisture and prevent mold buildup. As restrooms typically occupy a small space, restroom exhaust fans are considered low volume and generally provide 2 to 5 air exchanges per minute. These fans are mounted on the roof or in-line with the system’s ductwork. Canada Blower offers a full line of centrifugal roof & wall exhausters, inline centrifugal fans, and ceiling & cabinet ventilators to accommodate all restroom requirements and exhaust applications.

Industrial Inline Exhaust Fans

Rooftop exhaust fans are designed to remove heat and odors from buildings to improve air quality and occupant comfort. Areas such as cafeterias, locker rooms, office spaces, restrooms and warehouses often have unique requirements specified by local codes and utilize a wide range of rooftop exhaust fans. To accommodate these various types of environments and ventilation systems, Canada Blower Fan offers a complete line of products to support every rooftop exhaust application. These applications can range from clean airstreams with minimal filtration all way to high density offices and health care facilities that must comply with extremely stringent regulations. Gravity ventilators are used to equalize a building’s positive or negative pressure created by other fans in the system. These ventilators provide natural ventilation and are used for intake and relief applications. Canada Blower Fan offers both spun aluminum and hooded ventilators, featuring a low silhouette for low roof-lines. Louvered penthouse ventilators are available when aesthetics are not an important factor and feature extruded aluminum louvers. Sidewall exhaust and supply applications require panel fans to move large volumes of air at low static pressures. Panel fans are commonly used on the walls of warehouses and manufacturing facilities to supply outside air or to remove hot or noxious gases in exhaust configurations. Other typical applications include removing carbon dioxide from produce storage facilities, greenhouse ventilation, and parking garages. Panel fans can be mounted directly to the wall panel, which is especially useful when ductwork is unnecessary. Each fan can be customized to the individual needs of the customer, including aluminum or stainless steel construction, explosion proof motors, gravity or motorized dampers, corrosion resistant coatings, and fully reversible propellers.

Industrial Fans

Indoor swimming pools require air moving equipment for exhausting moisture-laden, corrosive and chlorinated air. Fans and duct systems must be designed to withstand these elements. That is why Canada Blower offers a wide selection of fans and construction materials, including fiberglass, alloys, and specialty coatings to prevent the potential corrosion associated with these environments.

Industrial Ventilator Blowers & Fans

Ventilation is a crucial component for any mining operation. Inadequate ventilation can expose miners to high levels of dangerous gases, dust particulates, and excessive heat. The consequences of prolonged exposure to these elements can pose a series of health related complications. We understand the significance of selecting the right ventilation equipment for maximizing the air quality in mines, which is why Buffalo Blower offers a comprehensive line of products suited for the most rigorous mining ventilation applications. We also offer many special design features such as non sparking units, explosion proof motors and specialty guards. Stairwells are frequently the primary escape route in the event of a fire emergency and may also serve as the primary access route for firefighting teams. In these smoke control zones, fans are used to pressurize stairwells to limit smoke infiltration by maintaining positive pressure across closed stairwell doors. Fans used for stairwell pressurization are designed to operate at low enough pressures so that doors can be safely opened during evacuation. Because occupant safety is the most important aspect when facing a fire emergency, Buffalo Blower offers a complete line of smoke and heat exhaust fans designed for stairwell pressurization.

Industrial Pressure Blower Fans

Service stations require vehicle exhaust systems to maintain indoor air quality for customers and employees. These systems attach to a vehicle’s exhaust pipe to draw hazardous emissions out of the building. The fans used in these systems are attached to small hose and must be capable of producing high pressures due to the air velocity required to exhaust the fumes. Buffalo Blower offers a wide selection of compact pressure blowers and radial bladed fans capable of meeting the high pressures requirements of vehicle exhaust systems.

Industrial Blowers, Inline Exhaust fans and Propeller Fans for Aeration

Industrial aeration involves moving air through either a solid or fluid medium bed and is used for various purposes. Depending on specific material being aerated, our fans are utilized for moisture control in applications such as grain bin storage, and also provide oxygen and control moisture/temperature in composting applications. Due to varying environmental conditions, fans used in aeration systems often require special construction such as fiberglass, alloys and specialty coatings. The control and containment of air containing a biological hazard is crucial for maintaining a safe environment. An air handling system designed to move such material must be designed to ensure contaminated air does not escape. This can be accomplished with an induced draft fan that will maintain a negative pressure, so that any leaks in a system draw outside atmosphere in, as opposed to allowing the contaminated air out. Biomass and Incineration are two new methods of generating power that utilize renewable biological fuels and refuse as their main fuel source. The process of converting these fuels into an energy source requires the use of specialized boiler system. Issues such as dust loading and corrosion can become major concerns if your system does not utilize the proper fan for exhausting particulate and gas emissions. That is why selecting the right fan is crucial for optimizing the performance and longevity of your overall system. We offer a wide range of underfire combustion air fans, overfire air fans and induced draft fans needed to stand up to the harsh operating environments.

Large Industrial Fans

In the textile industry, humidity of the air is crucial for air quality and fabric production. The fibrous material manufactured in plants needs to maintain a specific humidity and temperature to be processed effectively. Textile manufacturers use air washers to cool, humidify, dehumidify and clean the air to prevent damage during production. Drum filters are typically used in the nonwoven industry for manufacturing products such as diapers, sanitary napkins, and surgical pads. Drum filters have become the standard in the nonwoven industry and are known for their efficiency and compact designs with relatively large air flows. Twin City Fan is a leading supplier of the main system fans located on the clean side of the process. Buffalo Blower fans are often selected for this particular application because of their ability to cover a wide performance range and various operating conditions. Forming fans play an integral role for forming products in the nonwoven industry, such as diapers. These fans create the negative pressure in the forming chamber, giving the product its shape. We typically provide our model RBW radial bladed fan with a backplate for this application. The RBW is capable of producing high static pressures at medium to low airflows.

Air washers balance the required humidity of the plant air by humidifying the air during the dry seasons and dehumidifying the air when conditions are more humid. This is accomplished by using re-circulated heated or chilled water that is sprayed into the air. Buffalo Blower fans are used to draw air through these air washer systems and typically provide adjustable pitch axial fans in the range of 2.5″ to 4″ static pressure. Regardless of the size of your operation and system requirements, Buffalo Blower is capable of manufacturing virtually any size fan or blower to meet your exact specifications. Air strippers are used on drum filters for removing material build up on the filter. The vacuum nozzles on the filter remove the fiber/particulate which are then disposed of or used for reclaiming the material. The fans used in this particular application require higher pressure at a relatively low airflow along with a radial blade design for handling the material. Because of these factors Buffalo Blower model ORB incorporates radial blades with a backplate to prevent long stingy material from collecting around the shaft.

High Temperature Blowers

Flue gas recirculation is a highly effective technique used for lowering Nitrogen Oxide (NOx) emissions from burners. This is particularly crucial, as NOx is a significant pervasive pollutant that produces a negative array of health and environmental by-products. NOx emission levels can be greatly reduced in industrial boilers by reticulating used flue gases back into the system. This process lowers the peak combustion temperature and drops the percentage of oxygen in the combustion air/flue gas mixture, delaying the formation of NOx caused by high flame temperatures. TCF offers a wide range of centrifugal blowers specifically designed to be used with FGR systems.

Industrial Pressure Blowers

Forced Draft fans purpose is to provide a positive pressure to a system. This basic concept is used in a wide variety of industries but the term FD Fans is most often found in the boiler industry. Fans for boilers force ambient air into the boiler, typically through a preheater to increase overall boiler efficiency. Inlet or outlet dampers are used to control and maintain the system pressure. Typical fan arrangements are 3SI or 3DI which utilize a wheel center hung on the shaft with integral inlet boxes.
