With a split housing, vibration switch, split vibration isolators, pressure tap connections, and an outlet transition to round, this fan is heavy-duty and food-grade.

Important Considerations Required in Fans for Food and Dairy Processing
Manufacturers of food and dairy products are well aware that there are increased Federal and State guidelines that impact their operations in the interest of greater health and safety. Industrial fans for food and dairy processing are no different.
September’s story involves the Cheese & Whey industry. AirPro built four fans for a northeastern dairy processing facility. All fans, installed on a whey production system, were required to pass USDA food-safety inspection. The pictured fan, processing the hot air at the outlet of the dryer, included 304 Stainless Steel airstream parts (APIC).
