Industrial Fan and Blower Product Features
Product features are not extra. When you’re talking about industrial fans and blowers, what we’re calling “product features” are really product essentials. We just didn’t think you’d be searching for that. The truth is that a centrifugal fan is a game of roulette without the right motor, mounting, material, finish, other protection, testing, quality control, maintenance plan, and standards.
If we use an automotive comparison, then product features in industrial fans and blowers are the horsepower, steering, wheel-drive, airbags, miles per gallon and dealer warranty. They are table stakes, but they do depend on the intended use.
Many of the same components that dictate the impeller blade (like radial, backward-curved, backward-inclined, or forward-curved) also indicate the appropriate industrial fan and blower features.
Basics of Product Features for Industrial Fans and Blowers
Something this important requires deeper consideration. Below is a snapshot, but each product feature has its own page with much more detail.
