People & Processes: Part I

by Keith White, Jr.

The manufacturing, industrial, and corporate worlds consider AirPro a business-to-business company (B2B); however, even after sixteen years working here, I’m constantly reminded of the people-centered nature of this business. Occasionally, I’m tempted to focus solely on the “big picture” keeping my head above the clouds, and then a very meaningful conversation suddenly reorients my mindset, reminding me that people run AirPro’s engine. As AirPro experiences growth, we aim to preserve our people-first approach because we take a lot of disparate things and harmonize them to create a one-of-a-kind product for the customer. Losing sight of the people involved risks diminishing the quality and efficiency of our work. By staying focused on those who build, sell, and buy our fans, we can continue to delight the industrial world while efficiently energizing process air—the crux of our mission statement.

AirPro G-Series Pressure Blower

The G Series wheel, part of our pressure blower series, delivers exceptional efficiency. Designed for low-volume, high-pressure applications, this wheel combines a narrow profile with substantial diameter to optimize performance.

Air flows through the intake, slightly wider to ensure smooth entry, then transitions to the narrower section along the blades’ periphery. The curved blade design builds pressure effectively while maintaining impressive efficiency near 70% peak static efficiency.

For low-volume, high-pressure applications, the G Series wheel provides an outstanding option among industrial fans.

Impeller Basics

New for 2025 is a regular feature on basic fan knowledge from Chet White, our Sales and Marketing Manager. This month we look at the various types of impellers for centrifugal fans.

Radial

Centrifugal impellers come in various styles, each with unique characteristics and applications. The radial bladed paddle wheel, the oldest style, features radial blades extending outward from the hub like wheel spokes. As the paddles rotate, they expel air and materials through the outlet. While the least efficient, this design excels at handling debris and abrasive materials. Its lack of a leading edge prevents damage, and the radial profile minimizes buildup, reducing vibration and extending the life of general-purpose fans.

Andy Warhol, Hard Work, and Shipping Fans

by Keith White, Jr.

An Experience

A good number of years ago I visited Pittsburgh for a long weekend with my wife.  While there, we visited the Andy Warhol Museum. After turning 30, I found myself drawn to art museums—perhaps a promising sign of maturity. Before that, I had little interest in art, and even now I’m not entirely sure what caused this shift besides the passing of time.  The Warhol Museum provides visitors with an up close and personal view of Warhol’s life as it pertains to his artwork. One interpretative exhibit resonated with me more than the others.

HPSL Fan for Scrubber System

This fan is a critical component of a dual-fan scrubber skid, designed specifically for environmental remediation. The end-user deploys it at contaminated sites to harness heat which penetrates deep into the earth to release harmful toxins in vapor form. The fan provides powerful vacuum extraction, pulling these vapors through the scrubber system, where they are treated and safely released into the atmosphere.
