Features and Benefits

Q Fan

The Model Qfan is a quiet, airfoil, in- line fan specifically designed for air conditioning applications. This highly refined axial flow fan is available in 13 sizes from 1,000 through 80,000 cfm. Small and compact, the Q fan has proven to be the ideal air moving device for standalone applications and also for custom air handling units. It can be used for supply, return and exhaust systems.

Available in arrangement 1 (for floor mounting of larger units with heavier motors) and arrangement 9 (horizontal or vertical mounting), it can be selected in class 1, 2 and 3. Arrangement 9 permits factory mounting of the motor on top, bottom, or either side of the fan

— see below.

Benefits

The Q (Quiet) Fan

TheTrane Model Q fan generates less low frequency noise (more difficult to attenuate) than any other type of fan in the HVAC industry. Sound level comparisons show common vaneaxial fans produce up to 23 db higher sound levels than the Model Q — significant in industrial applications. Being quieter than centrifugal fans allows for installations closer to building occupants.

Saves Mechanical Room Space The compact quiet Q fan saves floor space, which reduces system first cost.

Easy To Install

Rigging and installation is so much quicker and easier that total installed cost savings are typically five percent or more.

Low Maintenance

Belt-driven with fixed blades, Model Q fan has very few moving parts. This design results in exceptionally low maintenance requirements. No fan teardowns need be scheduled. In fact, Q fans installed 25 years ago are still operating just as quietly as when they were installed.

Flexible Installation

The Model Q arrangement 9 can be set in any position, for horizontal discharge, angled discharge and vertical discharge either upblast or downflow.The only limitations placed on this arrangement are those dictated by good fan installation practice.

Motor slide rails and drive guard are standard, at no extra cost.
