ATEX EF 500M Explosion-Proof Wall Type Axial Fan 7200 m³/h Single Phase (220 Volt)

What is an Exproof Fan?

Exproof fans are used for ventilating hazardous areas containing flammable or explosive substances. These fans are commonly used in industrial facilities and construction sites. Thanks to their special design, Exproof fans provide proper ventilation for areas where flammable gases, vapors, and dust may be present. They are designed to prevent sparks, minimizing the risk of igniting potentially explosive materials. This means the entire fan, including the explosion-proof motor and aluminum or copper fan blades, is made of non-sparking materials.
