The Economy forced ventilation fans are manufactured to provide IP66 certified protection, whilst remaining an innovative and extremely cost-effective solution for your business.

When do I need a forced ventilation fan unit?

For many industrial applications, there is a growing need for motors with improved cooling facilities when operating at low speeds for most variable speed drive applications.  The simplest way to deliver improved cooling is to provide a second, small and constant speed induction motor to drive a cooling fan.

Using a forced ventilation fan unit is essential for giving the required cooling across the whole body of the motor, limiting the potential for loss of output power, nuisance trips and premature failures from insufficient cooling.
