Cooling fans provide a comfortable working environment for employees in industrial settings. They also ensure equipment and products stay at an ambient temperature to prevent damage or spoilage.
Industrial cooling fans are an essential investment in warehousing, manufacturing, construction, and mining industries – but which cooling fan best suits your operations?
Keep reading as we discuss the vast range of industrial cooling fans and the specifications on offer. This guide will help develop your industrial facility’s optimal cooling and ventilation strategy.
Everything you need to know about industrial cooling
Before we discuss the top industrial cooling fan types, let’s establish why industrial cooling is essential and how a well-planned ventilation strategy can benefit your industrial operations.
Why use industrial cooling solutions?
Here are some of the main reasons why companies use and implement industrial cooling solutions:
- Managing and dissipating heat produced by machinery and industrial equipment.
- Providing ambient temperatures for product quality and the longevity of equipment.
- Promoting air circulation to manage dust and particles, keeping air breathable and clean while reducing maintenance requirements.
- Providing humidity control for protection of product quality and reduced moisture.
- Mitigating harmful gases and toxins in the air to create a safer working environment.
Range of industrial cooling fans
When it comes to cooling your industrial facility, there are many options. Here are the top recommended cooling solutions for industrial settings.
Mancoolers
Mancoolers are designed to provide cooling in industrial settings – whether to cool employees as they work or to assist in heat dissipation for equipment. Here are some of the features of Mancoolers:
- Axial fan blades – the high-performance blades of Mancoolers provide efficient air circulation and cooling for industrial environments.
- Corrosion resistance – you can be sure your Mancoolers will withstand industrial conditions, as they are constructed using corrosion-resistant materials like stainless steel.
- WHS compliance – the safety guards on Mancoolers ensure your workers are safe and provide safe use for harsh industrial environments.
- Oscillation – Mancoolers have oscillating settings to allow for wide coverage, allowing you to maximise the range of the cooling fan for large areas.
You can opt for portable and mini industrial Mancoolers to maneuver the fan around your facility as needed.
Giant Fans
A Giant Fan is best suited to large-scale industrial facilities. Here are some of the features of Fanquip’s Giant Fans:
- Large blades – the blades of Giant Fans have advanced aerodynamics to support high-volume airflow and provide air circulation on a large scale. Advanced aerodynamics support energy efficiency for industrial operations.
- Durable material – Giant Fans are typically constructed using alloys or industrial-grade aluminium to withstand harsh industrial environments.
- Variable speed controls – you can adjust the speed of your fan and take advantage of automation features for more precision in airflow management.
- Noise control – despite their size, Giant Fans do not contribute to pollution and hazards in your industrial facility. They have built-in noise control to ensure minimal disruption.
Air circulators
Air Circulators provide efficient airflow and air circulation for industrial facilities. Here are the features to evaluate when considering Air Circulators for your ventilation strategy:
- Powerful motor – the fan blades of an Air Circulator are designed to maximise airflow and air circulation, reducing stagnant air pockets and providing even temperature distribution.
- Durable – Air Circulators are usually constructed using industrial-grade plastics or heavy metal to provide the durability required for harsh industrial conditions.
- Variable speed controls – you can adjust airflow management and automate Air Circulator operation for maximum efficiency.
- WHS compliance – the blade guards and thermal overload protection reduce hazards and provide compliance with health and safety legislation.
You can opt for a Fixed or Pedestal Air Circulator solution, depending on your need for maneuverability. Air Circulators are an adaptable solution suitable for most industrial environments.
Transformer Cooling Fans
Transformer Cooling Fans are designed to provide cooling for your transformer, ensuring it does not overheat, leading to operational interruptions and potential combustion. Here are some of the features of our Transformer Cooling Fans:
- High-volume airflow – the high-volume airflow of Transformer Cooling Fans helps dissipate the heat produced by your transformer and supports oil-immersed cooling methods.
- Durable – Transformer Cooling Fans provide the reliability required for safe industrial operations. They are made with heavy-duty metals to provide reliable cooling for your industrial transformer.
- Variable speed controls – you can adjust the speed of a Transformer Cooling Fan to adapt to temperature fluctuations and varying cooling needs.
- Safety features – thermal overload protection prevents fire hazards, and blade guards ensure no debris can enter the fan mechanism.
