fans with frequency convertors are
an excellent alternative to centrifugal fans with inlet vane controls for systems requiring varying air quantity
requirements.

DESIGN FEATURES
Investment, operating costs, and space requirements are lower for VANEMASTER™fans used in combination
with frequency converters that make even small installations economical.
The simple construction of VANEMASTER
™
fans provides a stable structure which minimizes vibration. Normally
there is only one or more vibration modes in which the associated speed(s) must be avoided. This is easily
accomplished by programming the variable frequency control.
As may be seen in the table, frequency control permits speeds and capacities in excess of the standard motor
rating. Care must be taken to not exceed the available motor output power or the maximum rotor speed.
Contrary to fixed speed fans, the use of speed regulation improves sound as lower speeds result in lower sound
power levels.

fan selection example would be AVD 1000/403. Additional data concerning motor RPM, voltage, Hz and
accessories are required to create the proper fan selection for each application.
Vane Axial fans shall be Direct Driven, Arrangement 4, with the motor located downstream from the impeller.
Impeller blades are to be made of a high strength, corrosion resistant, aluminum alloy. Blades are to be die cast
for maximum efficiency and low noise levels. The impeller hubs are to be die-formed of galvanized steel with
angle location marks to allow accurate blade setting at the factory or in the field.

TYPICAL INSTALLATION
INLET DUCT ELBOWS
Non-uniform flow into a fan inlet is the most common cause of deficient fan performance. An elbow located at, or
in close proximity to the fan inlet will not allow the air to enter the impeller uniformly. The result is less than
catalogued air performance. It is strongly advised that inlet elbows be installed a minimum of three (3) diameters
away from any axial or centrifugal fan inlet.
It is strongly advised that inlet elbows be installed a minimum of three (3) diameters away from any axial
or centrifugal fan inlet.
OUTLET DUCT ELBOWS
Values for pressure losses through elbows, which are published in handbooks and textbooks, are based upon a
uniform velocity profile approaching the elbow. Any non-uniformity in the velocity profile ahead of the elbow will
result in a pressure loss greater than the published value.
The velocity profile at the outlet of a fan is not uniform and an elbow located at or near the fan outlet will,
therefore, develop a pressure loss greater than its “handbook” value.
The amount of this increased loss will depend upon the location and orientation of the elbow relative to the fan
outlet. In some cases the effect of the elbow will be to further distort the outlet velocity profile of the fan. This will
increase the losses and may result in such uneven flow in the duct that branch takeoffs near the elbow will not
deliver their designed air flow.
Wherever possible a length of straight duct should be installed at the fan outlet to permit diffusion and
development of a uniform flow profile before an elbow is inserted in the duct. If an elbow must be located near the
fan outlet then it should have a minimum radius to duct diameter ratio of 1.5.
