TEBC Tubeaxial Duct Fan
American CoolAir Type T duct tubeaxial Model TEBC Fans are high performance, axial flow fan designed for duct connected applications, suited to meet your ducted fan needs for high pressure and air volume both economically and efficiently. Suggested for commercial and industrial uses such as make-up air systems, booster fans, return air fans or to exhaust contaminated or high temperature air, Type T fans are available in a large selection of CFMs (from 1,500 to 52,000 CFM) and operate efficiently against static pressures up to 1.5 inches.
Construction: The fan housing and motor supports are made of heavy gauge steel plate for maximum strength and durability. Painted parts are coated with a baked-on epoxy to provide a protective coating rated excellent for hardness, impact resistance, adhesion and chemical resistance. The fan unit is mounted within the housing with flanged ends to form a complete fan-duct section. All blade assemblies are dynamically balanced. Parts requiring painting are processed through the advanced American Coolair five-stage pretreatment system prior to the application of any coatings to ensure maximum finish adhesion. These parts use a thermosetting epoxy powder paint with an average thickness of 3 mils and baked at 400 degrees Fahrenheit to a smooth, hard, continuous finish. The motor, belts and bearings are isolated from the air stream. The steel fan shaft is supported by two pillow-block ball bearings that are mounted in an enclosed tube to provide years of service under harsh conditions. External grease fittings for relubrication of fan bearings are standard.
Prop Assembly: TEBC models have from 4 to 6 cast aluminum airfoil blades that are securely attached to a heavy cast aluminum hub. Blade pitch is set for catalog performance.
Belt Drive: The belt drive design is recommended where high temperature or contaminated air make it desirable to isolate the motor, bearings and belts from the airstream or for quieter operation by using low fan speed. Most belt driven models are equipped with a variable pitch motor pulley which allows fan speed adjustment where desirable. The setting made at the factory allows the fan to operate within the maximum safe capabilities of the motor. The pulley may be opened to reduce fan speed and thus decrease air flow.
Bearings L10 heavy duty pillow block ball bearings with extended bearing lube lines with grease fittings are available on most models.
Motors Totally enclosed motors are standard for all models. A selection of motor speeds is available on direct drive units. Several alternatives are available to fit your specific needs, such as explosion proof motors, two-speed motors, energy efficient motors and severe duty motors. only nationally recognized brand motors with nationwide service facilities are used.
Listings: UL listings and Certified ratings authorized by AMCA (Air Movement and Control Association, Inc.) for air performance are available on all Type T Fans.
