Large frame AC fans have high performance

AC fans built in larger frame sizes use a new, high performance, capacitor motor and provide the cooling capacity that makes them ideal for large industrial cabinets.

Available in the UK from Aerco are new ADDA AC fans that are built in larger frame sizes than have previously been available from the company and, because they use a new, high performance, capacitor motor, provide the cooling capacity that makes them ideal for large industrial cabinets and the refrigeration industry. The ADDA AK178 and AK186 provide the same airflow performance but are built in different frame sizes to suit different applications. The AK178 measures 176 x 176 x 89mm while the AK186 is 180 x 180 x 65mm.

Both are powered by a new high performance capacitor motor that is more efficient, producing a higher output while consuming less power than shaded pole motors that are often used for this type of fan.

Both fans produce airflow of 805 litres/s (380 ft3/min) at a nominal speed of 2,650 rev/min and have an anticipated lifetime of 50,000h at 40 deg C.
