Exhaust Fan VL 50 (V-line)
VL50
is the ideal exhaust fan offering a cost effective solution
to high airflow demand and high quality material. The propeller
has a simple design including self-cleaning functions and
high efficiency characteristics, all of which are features
of the new V-line product segment.
The square fan housing and air conveyor (venturi) are made
of a strong galvanised sheet-steel. The 6-blade propeller
is statically and dynamically balanced. The propeller is available
in stainless steel and galvanised steel.
To improve aerodynamic efficiency, the fan has been developed
in Munters Euroemme's R&D lab. The test chamber has been
built according to ANSI / AMCA 210-85 Figure 15 specifications.
Construction details and air tightness have been verified
by personnel of the BESS Lab at the Agricultural Engineering
Department, University of Illinois - USA.
Propeller and Shutter
Attached
to the propeller is a large v-belt pulley in which is embedded
a ball bearing, fully protected against water. The belt transmission
ensures low propeller rpm, which in its turn entails high
efficiency and low energy consumption as well as low noise.
The shutter is made of pressed galvanised steel for all models,
which is stronger than aluminium and plastic.
The fan shutter is tightly closed when the fan is not in
operation, preventing any air leakage through the fan. The
patented centrifugal system hinders the shutter from being
closed by air pressure, keeping the efficiency of the fan
at peak performance at all times by maintaining the shutter
fully and firmly opened. Opening of the shutter is made by
rotating weights placed over the centrifugal system arms.
Closing of the shutters is provided for by powerful springs,
when the fan is not operating. The shutter does not have to
be cleaned regularly as dust does not affect its opening and
closing movement. All the plastic parts are made of gray acetalic
plastic.
