Product description

What Is an Axial Fan?

An axial fan is a type of fan that causes air to flow in an axial direction, parallel to the shaft on which the blades rotate. The flow is axial at both inlet and outlet. The blades rotating around an axis draw air parallel to that axis and push it outward in the same direction. The fan is designed to generate force by creating a pressure difference, causing flow through the fan. Axial fans produce airflow with a high flow rate, generating large volumes of airflow. However, the airflow they produce is at low pressure.

Applications

For small and medium-sized spaces:
Suitable for ventilating bathrooms, toilets, kitchens, pantries, laundry rooms, garages, workplaces, etc.
It is manufactured specifically for direct window-mount installation.

Features

Thanks to the aesthetic rear shutter, the best protection against dust, odors, moisture, cold, and similar external factors entering from outside when the extractor is not in use is ensured.
The extractor is designed to stop automatically when its cord-operated back cover is closed and to start automatically when it is opened.
The front cover, casing, and impeller, which are exposed to dust, can be wiped clean easily.
Noise level is reduced to a minimum through optimized motor and casing design.
Self-lubricating motor bearings provide quiet and long-lasting performance.
Can be easily connected to windows.
Has IPX4 protection against water splashing.

Usage Options

Can be manually adjusted using the cord-operated cover that serves as the on/off control.
With a time-delayed electronic board, it can be set to continue running for a desired period after the extractor is switched off, then stop automatically.
Has thermal overload protection against motor wear in hot environments.

Things to Consider When Selecting an Axial Fan

4 parameters should be considered when selecting a fan:

Required Air Flow Rate
Pressure Losses
Acceptable Noise Level
Electrical Power Connection Type

The air change rate required for the space to be ventilated depends on the intended use of the space, the number of people and items inside, and their activity levels. The table alongside shows the recommended air change coefficients for different types of spaces.

Environment	Air Change Coefficient
Classrooms	5-7
Libraries	4-5
Domestic kitchens	15-25
Bathrooms	5-7
Domestic restrooms	4-5
Public restrooms	8-15
Conference rooms	6-8
Offices	4-8
Changing rooms	6-8

The amount of air per person in living and working spaces, depending on activity, can help determine the required air flow rate.

Normal Activity (Non-Smoking)	29 m³/h
Normal Activity (With Smoking)	58 m³/h
Light Activity	45 m³/h
Heavy Activity	60 m³/h

Based on the information provided above, the required air flow rate is determined as follows.

Q [ m³/h ] = Air change rate coefficient (1 hour) × Space volume (m³)

Q [ m³/h ] = Number of people × Air flow rate required per person

After calculating the required air flow rate, an appropriate duct design (considering noise and air velocity criteria) must be carried out and pressure losses must be calculated. Depending on the environment in which the fan will operate, the fan type (axial, centrifugal, roof-mounted, smoke exhaust, etc.) should be selected, and the appropriate fan should be chosen from the relevant performance curve based on the determined flow rate–static pressure pair. To briefly illustrate the above with an example: an office has 5 employees, a ceiling height of 2.6 m, and a floor area of 50 m², giving a volume of 2.6 × 50 = 130 m³. The air change rate given for offices in the air change coefficient table was 4–8. Taking an average of 5: 130 × 5 = 650 m³/h air requirement. Assuming normal activity in the office: 5 persons × 29 m³ = 145 m³ for the occupants, giving a total of 650 + 145 = 795 m³/h air requirement.

Fan selection is also made based on this flow rate requirement.

After completing the flow rate calculations, the installation location for the fan must be determined. Where will the fan be mounted — ceiling, wall, flue, or ventilation duct? Another consideration is the voltage of the electrical supply for the fan. Continuing with our office example: fans in offices are generally mounted on walls or windows. If standard household electricity will be used, a single-phase fan should be preferred. For industrial use, a fan operating on three-phase (380 V) power should be used.
