One of the most interesting sales reps in the industrial fan industry hails from Shelby County, Tennessee and if asked in the 1980s if he would be a Division Sales Manager for a supplier of automation and product solutions, he probably would have given the side-eye and kept walking. In this month’s Rep Highlight we introduce you to Mr. Lee Free of Centro, Inc.
Minnesota may be the land of 10,000 lakes, but it’s also home to an industrial fan sales powerhouse, Glacier Technology. Founded by Scott Clausen in 1995, Glacier serves as an expert in the OEM fan business. Today’s Rep Highlight features Glacier’s #1 rep and friend to AirPro, Brian Gordon.
Cleveland, OH, best known as the hometown of NBA superstar Lebron James, is also home to one of the leading industrial air filtration and ventilation companies in the U.S. right now. 3B Air Systems specializes in air filtration systems with a particular focus on customer success. For these reasons, Mike Krayer, owner and founder of 3B Air Systems, is the focus of this month’s AirPro Rep Highlight.
Our top manufacturer’s representative agencies like Air Quality Engineers (AQE) work closely with our application engineers to deliver reliable, high-quality centrifugal fans to customers for their industrial process applications.
We all know fans move air, but in industrial applications, they also move particles, parts, and even products. Both Mass Flow Rate (movement of materials) and Volumetric Flow Rate (movement of air) are important to know when calculating fan specifications and performance.
We’re thrilled to congratulate AirPro Fan & Blower Company founder Keith White Sr. as he moves closer to retirement in the role of Chief Executive Officer focused on Board oversight, with Keith White Jr. stepping into the role of President as of July 1, 2023. The transition is the culmination of our years-long succession plan, with co-founder Marty Mathews retaining oversight of engineering and technology development.
If you use fans and blowers to process or produce goods, why should you trust AirPro as your partner? Here at AirPro, we prioritize our energy and resources into making high quality fans and providing the service & support you need to successfully run your operations.
You may enjoy good vibrations at the beach, but fan vibration issues are no picnic. Even when they ship from the shop having been balanced like ours do, once they’re in the field, vibration problems can surface.
Skipping the balancing step after installation could result in catastrophic failure before the dust has a chance to settle on your shiny new fan.
What’s the difference between axial and centrifugal fans? It’s a question we hear often when helping customers with their fan applications.
Sometimes the most simple things like cleaning get overlooked, potentially leading to many more serious issues. It’s important to properly clean a blower wheel, as material buildup on a wheel can cause vibration and damage your fan. Even “clean air” may contain various particles and debris. A simple cleaning procedure can keep your fan healthy and decrease downtime.
