It usually takes some time before the maintenance lamp flashes in the natural gas bus. But there is room for improvement! Another integrated axial compact fan from ebm-papst is helping to reduce maintenance costs even further.»
Axial fans are normally used for situations when strong air flow with relatively low back pressure is required. That is why they have not yet been the fan of choice for devices that require a high pressure increase. But now that has all changed: ebm-papst’s new axial fans are also suitable for applications with high back pressure, meaning that these types of applications can also benefit from their higher air flow rates.»
Adjusting the air flow of a fan to the actual demand enables significant energy savings and noise reduction in practice. It should therefore be possible to regulate the air flow of the fans used in ventilation, refrigeration, and air conditioning systems as precisely and efficiently as possible to a specified setpoint. Depending on the fan type and area of application, different methods can be used.»

Deciding which fan is the most efficient, and works at the maximum energy efficiency, is not that simple: Fans are complex flow machines that react to every change, including installation conditions, speed variations or pressure ratio changes due to filter contamination. As a result, no fan works at the “best efficiency” at all times and in all places. Having said that, centrifugal fans are the better choice for most applications in AHUs.»

In ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration applications, designers and operators often discover that the fans installed in their equipment are noisier or less energy-efficient than expected. The conditions of installation are often to blame, as they can have a negative effect on power consumption, air performance and noise emissions. The fan’s impeller, motor, control electronics and housing are optimized for energy efficiency and noise emission, and the actual conditions of installation in AHUs should not be neglected.»
