DESCRIPTION
The PowerLine
®
EC Series of In-Line centrifugal fans incorporate the
latest state-of-the-art, energy saving EC motor technology and
are most efficient where conditions vary during the course of the
day. They feature fully integrated, infinitely variable speed control
which eliminates the need for external VSDs, current overloads
and motor phase protection.
Optional matching sensors monitor the ambient conditions
and provide real time feedback to the fan. The fan's on-board
microprocessor adjusts the speed and therefore modulates the
ventilation rate to match the specific requirements of the area.
The PowerLine
®
EC fans are a simple "plug and play" system
which means installers do not need to have specialised control
programming knowledge.
They feature easy to fit 35mm TDF profile flange connections,
a robust yet lightweight galvanised steel construction and are
available in 7 sizes ranging from 315 to 630mm diameter.
Typical Applications
Commercial and industrial supply or exhaust applications such
as shopping centres, office buildings, exhibition centres, hotels,
health centres, schools and universities.
Features
O
EC motor features reverse polarity protection, locked rotor
protection and soft starting.
O
No additional electrical protection such as contactors are
required.
O
All models supplied standard with 0-10V control input.
Diameter sizes from 450mm and above can be
pre-configured to suit specific sensors and specific
applications.
O
A full range of sensors are available including differential
pressure, humidity, temperature, air velocity and pollutant.
O
Can be run as an independent ventilation source or
integrated into most building management systems.
O
Robust, yet lightweight galvanised steel construction.
O
Centrifugal fans suit applications where medium to high air
pressure is required.
O
Easy to fit 35mm TDF profile flange connections.
O
Can be mounted in any position.
