Aircol 150 Automatic Shutter Toilet and Bathroom Fan / Aspirator 300 m³/h - Aircol 150 OP

Radial Fan:

A radial fan is a type of fan that creates a pressure difference. The airflow in these fans works in a centrifugal direction, as a centrifugal force acts on the air. A centrifugal fan uses a rotating impeller inside a helical casing to move air or other gases. Air or gas enters along the axis of the fan and is moved tangentially around the impeller before being ejected out of the fan. Due to the high pressure they generate, centrifugal fans are ideal for high-pressure applications such as drying and air conditioning systems. These fans are also suitable for air pollution and filtration systems, as their enclosed moving parts reduce particle emissions.

Application Areas: For small and medium-sized spaces:

• Bathrooms, toilets, kitchens, pantries, laundry rooms, garages, workplaces, etc. are ideal for ventilation.
• Specifically designed for use with up to 3-meter pipes or direct connections to exhaust systems for removing dirty and polluted air or supplying clean air from the outside.

Features:

• The automatic shutter opens 30 seconds after the fan starts and closes 30 seconds after the fan shuts off.
• The automatic shutter provides the best protection against dust, bad odors, and cold air when the fan is not in use.
• Designed to prioritize the aesthetic appearance of the front cover over the shutters inside.
• Made from high-quality ABS plastic, the product resists bad odors, moisture, and other external factors without losing its original appearance.
• The front cover can be cleaned easily by wiping off dust.
• The motor and body design minimize noise levels.
• Self-lubricating motor bearings ensure quiet and long-lasting performance.
• Easy to mount on walls, ceilings, windows, etc. both vertically and horizontally.
• The included locking clamp simplifies installation.
• IPX4 protection against water splashes.

Important Considerations in Radial Fan Selection:

When selecting a fan, the following four parameters must be considered:

1. Required Airflow Rate
2. Pressure Losses
3. Acceptable Noise Levels
4. Electrical Power Connection Type

The required air changes depend on the room's use, the number of people and items in the room, and the activities taking place. The table below provides the required air changes for different environments.

Based on the activity in the living or working space, the required airflow can be calculated:

• Normal Activity (Non-Smoking): 29 m³/hour
• Normal Activity (Smoking): 58 m³/hour
• Light Activity: 45 m³/hour
• Heavy Activity: 60 m³/hour

To calculate the required airflow:

• Q [m³/hour] = Air Change Rate (per hour) * Room Volume (m³)
• Or
• Q [m³/hour] = Number of people * Airflow per person

After determining the required airflow, the duct design (considering noise and airspeed criteria) should be created, and pressure losses should be calculated. The fan type (axial, radial, roof, smoke evacuation, etc.) should be selected based on the environment, and the appropriate fan curve should be chosen according to the required flow rate and static pressure.

For example, in an office with 5 people, where the ceiling height is 2.6 meters and the floor area is 50 m², the room volume would be 130 m³. The air change rate for offices is 4-8, and if we take 5 as the rate, the airflow requirement would be 650 m³/h. For 5 people in normal activity, the airflow requirement would be 145 m³/h, leading to a total of 795 m³/h.

After calculating the required airflow, the installation location for the fan must be determined. The fan could be mounted on a ceiling, wall, duct, or ventilation pipe, and the electrical connection type (single-phase or three-phase) must also be considered depending on the setting (office, industrial, etc.).
