TYPE
FORWARD-CURVED
• Double-width, double-inlet (DWDI) construction.
(FC)
• Best at low or medium pressure (approximately
SIDE VIEW
0 to 5 in. wg).
• Horsepower increases continuously with
increase in air quantity (overloads) as static
pressure decreases.
• Less expensive than AF fans.
• Runs at relatively low speed, typically 400 to
1200 rpm.
• Blades curve toward direction of rotation.
AIRFOIL
• Double-width, double-inlet (DWDI) construction.
(AF)
• Best in high capacity and high-pressure
SIDE VIEW
applications (4 to 8 in. wg).
• Horsepower peaks at high capacities.
• Most expensive of centrifugal fans.
• Operates at high speeds, typically 1200 to
2800 rpm. About double the speed of FC fan
for similar air quantity.
• Blades have aerodynamic shape similar to
airplane wing and are curved away from direction
of rotation.
PLENUM, BELT DRIVE
OR DIRECT DRIVE WITH
NEMA MOTORS (PAF)
• Single-width, single-inlet (SWSI) construction.
END VIEW
• Characteristics similar to DWDI airfoil fan.
• Blades have aerodynamic shape similar to
airplane wing and are curved away from direction
of rotation. Fewer blades and wider blade
spacing than AF fans.
• Available as belt drive or as direct drive shaft mounted on a NEMA "T" frame.
PLENUM, DIRECT DRIVE
WITH EC MOTORS
(PFEC) END VIEW
• Single-width, single-inlet (SWSI) construction mounted to rotor of supplier
matched electronically commutated motor.
• Blades curve away from direction of rotation.
• Various combinations of fan sizes and quantities available for fan efficiency opti-
mization.

APPLICATION
For low to medium pressure
air-handling applications.
For medium to high air capacity and
pressure applications.
Best in applications with limited space
or multiple ducts.
Best in applications with requirements
for limited space, high-efficiency or fan
redundancy.
