Fiberglass Backward Curved Centrifugal Fan

Series 41

The Series 41 Fiberglass Backward Curved Centrifugal Fan offers non-overloading horsepower characteristics, high efficiency, low noise and economy for corrosive atmospheres. The Series 41P Fan has the same airstream components as the Series 41 fan, in a compact packaged Class II design. The Series 41U Fan is a utility set version of the Series 41, with the motor mounted inside the drive base. It is available in SWSI (single width single inlet) only. Series 41P fan housings are constructed of vinyl ester resin and glass fiber with flame-retardant additives, and all fiberglass surfaces are protected with chemical-, flame- and ultraviolet-resistant resin.

Standard fiberglass components are made of solid fiberglass consisting of corrosion-resistant vinylester resin and glass fibers. Hartzell uses Derakane 510B for fan housings and Derakane 510A for the wheels. All nuts, bolts, and fasteners in contact with the airstream are stainless steel and encapsulated with a minimum of 10-mil of resin and glass fibers. Resin has a Class I flame spread rate of 25 or less. External fiberglass housing surfaces are protected with a minimum 10-mil UV resistant resin coating. See corrosion resistance guide in Hartzell’s Fan Engineering Data guide for resin characteristics. Other resins are available.

One-piece solid fiberglass airfoil construction and produced using resin transfer mold process. Electronically balanced on unit at operating speed. Type FA fiberglass airfoil wheel with inlet cone and aerodynamically designed housing produces high efficiencies with non-overloading horsepower and low noise.
