Axial Fan Demonstration Unit
Product Code : EL-FMLE-10647
QUICK ANSWER: This axial fan demonstration unit produces gas flow through momentum changes imparted across rotary blades parallel to the axis of rotation, making it more suitable for higher flows at lower delivery pressures than a centrifugal fan. It is mounted on a stainless steel plinth with transparent air inlet and outlet ducts for observing the fan in operation, a manually adjustable aperture for varying the airflow rate, and a calibrated orifice plate on the discharge to measure it. Electronic sensors monitor the pressure head across the fan, the pressure across the orifice plate (and hence the flow rate), fan rotational speed and air temperature, while the modulated DC supply driving the fan includes current sensing to measure the power it draws.
The advanced axial fan produces gas flow by virtue of the momentum changes imparted across the rotary blades, parallel to the axis of rotation, and such fans are more suitable for higher flows at lower delivery pressures than their centrifugal counterparts. The unit is mounted on a stainless steel plinth, with transparent air inlet and air outlet ducts that allow the fan construction to be clearly observed, and a manually operated adjustable aperture that allows the airflow rate to be varied.
A calibrated orifice plate on the discharge is used to measure the airflow rate, while electronic sensors measure the pressure head developed across the fan, the pressure across the orifice plate (and thus the flow rate), the rotational speed of the fan, and the air temperature. The fan speed is controlled by a modulated DC supply, complete with current sensing to allow the power drawn by the fan to be measured.
