Applications of Industrial Ventilation Fans


Industrial ventilation fans and extractions systems are found in multitude applications in all small to large industries. Manufacturers, fabricators, miners, and scientists all have uses for exhaust fans for particle and fume removal systems. The removal of smoke, fumes and dust is critical to the well being of the workers in almost every industry.


• Cement industries are one of the major resources and the production plants operate on a large scale, performing demanding tasks. • Industrial fans and blowers are involved in different phases of the cement production. One of them is the air supply for the kiln burners. • For example, induced draft fans are applied to generate a negative pressure air flow in the filtration device. • High pressure blowers and fans are installed for uncluttered conveying of raw materials, additives and chemicals used in the process from storage area. • Resistance and reliability are the basic requirements for the industrial fans used in this sector.


• Lumber and wood products mills, steel mills and foundries are some of the industries where fume and particle removal is required on a large scale. •

Huge impellers and turbines are needed to move huge volumes of air that is needed to handle large amounts of smoke, fumes, dusts generated at these scales.


• Crude oil refineries, petrochemical refineries and other chemical manufacturers deal with highly flammable, volatile and toxic organic lubricants, fuels and other solvents. •

Industrial fans are needed to run refined air entrainment systems like laminar flow hoods to protect the workers inside the plant.


• In Mining and quarrying industries, the health and lives of workers depends on the management of the dust. •

The coal dust is volatile in nature and can be combustible if ignited. Powerful turbines and blowers ventilate and cool underground mines.


• Pharmaceutical, biological, chemical, and physical research industries mostly deal with chemical, biological and other physical hazards. •

Drive laminar flow hoods, blowers, dust collection units, chemical scrubbers, fume containment systems and air filters contribute to environmental and worker safety. This application often demand the highest standards as many of the substances handled are contagious and pathogenic.


Industrial ventilation fans will remain the simple machines at the heart of air quality devices. They will help to keep the environment as well the worker safer. The astounding pace of industrial research and development will find ever more uses for this technology.
