About this factor
From EPD Danmark
What it is
The Geovent MEF fan series of centrifugal fans is ideal for industrial extraction and comfort ventilation. The MEF series is well-suited for process extraction of welding fumes, exhaust gases, and grinding dust. They provide high airflow and pressure performance and can be combined with filters to handle dusty air and minimize dirt accumulation. With a closed, backward-curved B-wheel and a direct-driven flange motor, an efficiency of up to 87% is achieved. The fans support PID control and constant pressure regulation for optimal performance. Made entirely of galvanized steel, they are corrosion-resistant and suitable for outdoor installation on roofs and walls. Standard equipment includes support brackets with vibration dampers, an inlet spigot with a mesh guard, and clamps for mounting the pressure spigot.What it includes
a clamp for mounting the outlet flange. Technical Specifications: Air Volume: Up to 24.100 m³/h Pressure: Up to 4.500 Pa Operating Temperatures: Extracted air up to 80°C; Surrounding environment up to 40°C Material: Galvanized steel housing; Domex sheet metal impellers Motor: IP55-rated B5 flange motor; options for custom motors with higher efficiency or frequency inverters Fan housing: 100% galvanized steel for optimal corrosion resistance. Carrying feet with vibration pads are standard on all fans as well as inlet nozzle with safety net. Impeller: Backward curved B-impeller in painted Domex sheet metal. Console: 4.0kW motors and above or heavy custom motors come with a supporting console to carry the weight. Motors of less than 4.0 Kw do not have a console to support the weight of the motor.. Upstream processes are modelled using residual electricity mix for Denmark. Downstream processes are modelled using consumption electricity mix for Denmark.• Robust galvanized steel construction for corrosion resistance and durability in harsh industrial settings • Directly driven B5 flange motors with IP55 protection • Modular configurations are available, including options for soundproofing, frequency inverters for speed control, and customized motors. • Fully tested and compliant with ISO 5801 standards Directive 2006/42/EC of the European Parliament and the Council of 17 May 2006 regarding machinery and amendments to Directive 95/16/EC.Where it applies
The GEOVENT centrifugal fan MEF series features a closed, backward-curving B-wheel and a directly driven flange motor. These fans are designed for industrial extraction applications as well as comfort ventilation, offering high efficiency of up to 87%. They are compatible with PID control and constant pressure regulation systems, ensuring optimal performance.Source and licence
