Fans Recommendations:

In harsh operating environments, the fan performance can

be reduced. It is due to corrosion and erosion which reduce
the fan blade thickness. Due to this the fan blades become
weaken and an imbalance is created in the impeller. In these
cases either the impeller should be replaced or an entirely
new fan should be installed. The fans can be replaced with
FRP (Fiber Reinforced Plastic) fans that can save 20-25%
energy.
During working, the contaminant is build up on fan blades
and on other system surfaces. It decreases the fan
performance. Due to non-uniform contaminant buildup, an
imbalance problem is created which affects fan performance
and drive train wear. Because fans are often used in
ventilation applications to remove airborne contaminants,
this problem can be particularly acute. Fans that operate in
high moisture airstreams should be cleaned regularly.
Those systems in which oversized fans are installed,
following corrective measures should be take:
1. Decrease fan speed using different motors.
2. Install an adjustable speed drive (ASD) or multiple
speed motor.
