Three new fans have been added to the Air Control Industries’ ‘Slimline’ range, which is intended for enclosure/cabinet cooling and fume extraction.  The new fans have been introduced to extend the performance capabilities of the range to expand potential applications into areas involving higher air volumes and pressures.

The new fans (VBL12/3, VBL14/3 & VBL 16/3) are 3-phase units and therefore intended for more demanding industrial applications than the existing single phase units.  In addition, they are centrifugal fans so they offer high power to size performance.

They are driven by a high efficiency inside out motor with the impeller mounted on an external rotor that rotates around a central fixed stator.  This design employs the impeller to operate as an efficient heat sink for cooler running whilst the rotor becomes a high resistance unit to facilitate speed control.

Precision balancing of moving components smooths operation and provides quiet operation whilst ensuring reduced wear on bearings for extended working life.
