Centrifugal Fans and Roof Fans with EC Motor

HF R 15 / 17 EC and HF D 15 / 17 EC

Maximum Energy Efficiency with EC Technology

Our plastic centrifugal fans with EC motors set new standards in ventilation technology. Thanks to advanced electronically commutated (EC) motors, they offer exceptional energy efficiency, lower operating costs, and a long service life. Unlike conventional motors, EC motors dynamically adjust their speed based on real-time demand, minimizing energy consumption—especially in industrial applications with variable airflow requirements.

Warum EC-Motoren?

EC motors combine the best of AC and DC technologies, offering seamless, stepless speed control with unmatched efficiency. Their intelligent regulation ensures that only the necessary amount of energy is used, delivering key benefits such as:

Significantly lower energy consumption
Extended motor lifespan
Reduced noise levels
Minimal maintenance requirements
Seamless integration into modern control systems

HF D ...-15 / 17 D EC

HF - Roof Fan
Version with EC Motor

Corrosion-resistant plastic roof radial fan with a robust, rotationally sintered housing, featuring single-sided suction. The fan is equipped with splinter protection according to accident prevention regulations, starting from size 160, using plastic-coated wire mesh.

When mounted vertically, the exhaust air is discharged vertically in compliance with the requirements for contaminated exhaust air. All components exposed to the exhaust air medium are made of plastic or are fully encapsulated in plastic.

The impeller features backward-curved blades in an injection-molded design, securely mounted on the motor shaft using a taper-lock bushing. The impeller is statically and dynamically balanced, achieving a balancing quality of at least G 6.3 (DIN ISO 21940-11).

Includes a highly efficient internal EC motor, encapsulated against the exhaust medium, and an externally mounted repair switch. The required external ventilation for the motor is provided through externally routed ducts.
