Fans

In short

We supply AC and EC fans for crop stores, specified for each job by size, airflow, noise, guards and dampers. EC fans use around 20% less power than AC fans, and less than half the power at 80% speed. The Air Control MAX fan is 36% quieter and moves up to 7% more air.

Our fans are developed and produced in-house and are unique in its kind. The fans are designed to ensure a long life and a high efficiency.

As well as our standard fans, we work closely with our suppliers so we can provide our customers with the
perfect solution to fit their needs. Our fans are ordered specifically for each job, this allows us to specify exactly what each customer requires in terms of size, air flow, noise cancellation, guards and dampers. This isn’t only for in packaged cooling units but also plenum units, air ducts, grain drying fans and any other application when fans are required.

Alongside the standard AC fans, we also produce EC fans. EC fans use around 20% less power than the AC series, and at 80% speed they use less than half the power. Noise is kept to a minimum. Our fans are developed specifically for storing potatoes, onions and carrots.

Questions about fans

Should I choose AC or EC fans?

AC fans are the proven standard. EC fans use around 20% less power as standard and under half the power at 80% speed, with speed control built in.

In packaged cooling units, plenum units, air ducts, grain drying fans and any other application that needs a fan. See our packaged ambient units and air ducts.
