Installation

Installations with inlet or discharge configurations that deviate from this standard may result in reduced fan performance. Restricted or unstable flow at the fan inlet can cause pre-rotation of incoming air or uneven loading of the fan wheel yielding large system losses and increased sound levels. Free discharge or turbulent flow in the discharge ductwork will also result in system effect losses. Refer to the following diagrams for the most efficient installation conditions.

because air is loaded

 

unevenly into the fan

performance, there should

 

be at least three fan wheel

Inlet Spin - Inlet spin is a frequent cause of reduced fan performance. The change in fan performance is a function of the intensity of spin and not easily defined. The best solution is proper duct design and airflow patterns. Turning vanes reduce the effects of inlet spin.

Non-Ducted Installations

Inlet Clearance - Installation of a fan with an open inlet too close to a wall or bulkhead will cause reduced fan performance. It is desirable to have one fan wheel diameter between parallel fan units and a minimum of three-fourths of a wheel diameter between the fan inlet and the wall.
