The Compact Series of Flameproof Miniduct fans has been
specifically designed for duct mounting and to ventilate
hazardous or explosive environments.
There are 4 sizes in the range extending from 250 to 400mm
diameter.
Typical Applications
Fantech's Compact Flameproof fans can be used to exhaust in
areas where the environment has been defined as being
hazardous or explosive necessitating the use of flameproof
motors. These areas include spray booths and battery charge
rooms. They are suitable for all Group II hazardous gas
environments EXCEPT for the following:
O
Where the ambient temperature is less than -20°C or
greater than 40°C.
O
Where the fan is exhausting from the vapour space of a
tank or vessel (Zone 0). See Page
O-5/7 for details
on Zones)
O
Where the fan is exhausting immediately adjacent to a
continuous source of release (Zone 0).
O
In mines susceptible to fire damp.
O
Where special conditions exist such as corrosion,
water, dust, vibration or high level of UV exist.

o
C.
These motors are not speed-controllable.
See pages
O-5/7
for details on these motors.
Internal Thermal Protection
The motor is fitted with thermal protection to conform
to the requirements of AS1359. IECEx certification and
classification of T6 does not take into account abnormal
operation such as locked rotor where the temperature
of the surfaces may exceed 85°C. If this is an issue with
your application, further protection should be fitted.
Testing
Air flow tests to ISO5801:1997, 'Type 'D' Installation
(ducted inlet and outlet).
Noise tests to BS848:Part 2, 1985.
