VENTILATING CENTRIFUGAL FAN with BACKWARD CURVED BLADES –3000


GENERAL

The centrifugal fan shall be designed and manufactured by Sheldons Engineering to ensure
smooth operation. Fan wheel shall be single thickness airfoil-Unifoil™ as shown in plans with all
steel construction. Unless otherwise directed, fan arrangement, motor location, support base,
rotation and discharge are as shown on the layout drawings.

PERFORMANCE

Fan ratings shall be based on tests made in accordance with AMCA Standard 210. Flow shall be
actual volumetric flow at the fan inlet. Fan static pressure is defined as static pressure at fan outlet
3
less total pressure at fan inlet. Standard inlet density is to be taken as 0.75 lb/ft with corrections
for temperature, elevation, inlet static pressure, gas composition and humidity as defined in the
schedule. Fans shall be selected to operate to the right of the peak static pressure at the given
speed to ensure stable performance. Fan brake horsepower shall be equal to or less than
specified at the given flow and fan static pressure.

SOUND

Fan manufacturers shall provide sound power level ratings for fans tested and rated in accordance
with AMCA Standards 300 and 301. Sound power ratings shall be in decibels
(reference 10-12 watts) in eight octave bands. Sound power levels will be corrected for
installation by the specifying engineer...dBA or sound pressure levels only are not acceptable.

CONSTRUCTION

Fan housings are to be heavy – per chart below, continuously welded construction with flanged and
punched outlet. Housings with lock seams or spot welded construction are not acceptable.
Fan Size Class I & II Class III & IV
122-200 12 gauge (0.1046” or 2.66 mm) 10 gauge
222-365 10 gauge (0.1345” or 3.42 mm) 10 gauge
405-730 10 gauge (0.1345” or 3.42 mm) 7 gauge
805-890 7 gauge (0.1875” or 4.76 mm) 7 gauge

BEARINGS (belt driven fans)

Bearings are to be heavy duty, grease lubricated, precision anti-friction spherical roller, self-aligning
pillow block design. Bearings shall be designed for a minimum L-10 life of AMCA Class I: 15,000,
AMCA Class II: 40,000, AMCA Class III: 100,000, Class IV 200,000 when rated at the fan's
maximum cataloged operating speed for the given class.

SHAFT (belt driven fans)

Shafts are to be ASTM A-108 steel, grade 1040/1045, precision turned, ground and polished.
Grade 1018 steel is not acceptable. The shaft's first critical speed shall be at least 143% of the
fan's maximum operating speed.

PAINT

All fan surfaces are to be thoroughly prepared prior to painting using a combination of
washing and hand and power tool cleaning as required in SSPC-SP-3. After cleaning, all surfaces
are to be coated with industrial grade alkyd enamel. Surfaces of bolted components not accessible
after assembly shall be coated and allowed to dry prior to final assembly. Primer only will not be
accepted.

BALANCE & INSPECTION

All fans shall be precision balanced to ISO quality grade 2.5, report to be submitted with the
maintenance manual. A final inspection by a qualified inspector prior to shipment is required to
include: scope of supply confirmation, balance, welding, dimensions, bearings, duct and base
connection points, paint finish and overall workmanship.

ACCESSORIES
