HF - Roof Fan
Corrosion-resistant plastic roof fan with a robust, rotationally sintered housing made of PEs, featuring single-sided suction. Equipped with splinter protection in accordance with accident prevention regulations, starting from size 160, as plastic-coated wire mesh.
When mounted vertically, the exhaust air is discharged vertically according to the requirements for contaminated exhaust air. All components exposed to the exhaust air medium are made of plastic or are plastic-coated.
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, meeting a balancing quality of at least G 6.3 (DIN ISO 21940-11).
Includes an internal motor encapsulated against the exhaust medium and an externally mounted repair switch for standard motors (without explosion protection) or an externally mounted terminal box for explosion-proof motors. The required external ventilation for the motor is provided through externally routed ducts.
