The process
Jute batching and spinning release fibre and dust that is drawn to dust collectors, and the mill floors are hot. Open or radial wheels on the extraction, roof extractors for the heat.
The gas
Fibrous or stringy material that wraps a shrouded wheel. An open or straight radial impeller, spark resistant where the fibre is combustible, placed before or after the collector as the material allows.
Fans in this process
| Duty | What it does here | Type usually selected |
|---|---|---|
| Dust Collector Fan | The fan behind a bag filter, cyclone or multiclone on a dust extraction system. | Backward inclined and radial tipped |
| Bag Filter Fan | Pulls the process gas through the filter bags and discharges the cleaned gas to the stack. | Backward curved and radial tipped |
| Ventilation Fan | Moves air through a plant or building for fresh air supply, heat removal and fume dilution where the system is ducted. | Backward inclined and forward curved |
| Roof Extractor | An axial fan in a weatherproof cowl mounted on an inclined or flat roof, exhausting hot air from the ridge of a factory shed.. | Axial |
| HVAC | Supply, return and exhaust fans for heating, ventilation and air conditioning of plant and office space. | Axial, backward inclined and forward curved |
