A Closer Look at Inlet Vane Dampers
Not everything needs to be complicated, but even simple things can make a big difference. Inlet vane dampers are one of those simple things that can have a big positive impact on industrial fan operations, efficiency, and performance.
Modulating Flow with an Outlet Damper
When you need to modulate airflow in your industrial application, one of your easiest and most affordable options is an outlet damper.
Maintain Static Pressure with VFD for Air Flow Control
Using a variable frequency drive or VFD for air flow control on your industrial fan can increase efficiency and save on energy costs over time. That’s because it gives you a high degree of control while keeping the airstream clear, thus avoiding static pressure losses that inevitably reduce efficiency.
What Fan Shaft Seals Are, What They’re Made of, and Why You Might Need One
There are many industrial centrifugal fan and blower applications that require a shaft seal, including various pollution control, dryer, food and dairy, process cooling, and process heating applications.
Centrifugal Fan Functions for Industrial Dryer Applications
Industrial dryers like the rotary dryer and others remove moisture in the production process of various foods, chemicals, biofuels, and other products. The rotary dryer handles a wide range of materials with different sizes and levels of corrosion. It uses a large drum that rotates to dry the material with a direct combustion-heated gas stream.
Reliability and Customer Focus at the Foundation of Resilience
We’ve made no secret of the gravity with which we approach our customer commitments. From needs-based innovation to on-time delivery to our 3-year warranty, our processes and culture are built around a laser focus on serving customers reliably. We don’t always name our approach, but if we had to, we’d have to call it agile manufacturing.
Using Fan Law Equations to Size a Fan and Fan Motor
Change is inevitable. When you’re dealing with heavy-duty industrial machinery like fans, you don’t want to leave the impact of change to chance. Fortunately, there are physics that govern what happens to the fan curve when you change one component like speed. There are three fan law equations that can help you predict the effect of possible or likely change so that you can size your system to accommodate it.

Our top manufacturer’s representative agencies like Glacier Technology are a huge part of how we consistently serve customers with reliable, high-quality centrifugal fans for their industrial process applications.
Flexible Connectors Protect Your Industrial Fan and Ductwork
Flexible Connectors, or flex connectors, are very effective for protecting the fan wheel and ductwork, and they can also be a highly cost-effective alternative to costly design adjustments during installation.

Centrifugal Fan Applications for SCR Systems
Power plants and other industrial operations that involve combustion often use Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) systems for pollution control and environmental compliance. SCR systems pull flue gas out of the gas stream and inject it with a reagent (usually Ammonia or Urea) to reduce Nitrogen Oxide (NOx ) levels before exhausting to the atmosphere. SCR systems are a critical part of meeting acceptable emissions levels put forth by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Fan Machinery Reliability is the Tip of the Iceberg at AirPro
When it comes to industrial equipment, machinery reliability tends to stay top-of-mind. If it’s down, you’re down, and that means lost time and money, and often lots of hassle or even safety issues. It’s why we insist on high-quality materials of construction, top-notch welding, optimal design, rigorous testing, and proper installation. We back it all up with our 3-Year Warranty!
