The FBC series comprises a versatile lineup of axial and centrifugal fans designed to meet the rigorous demands of modern mine and tunnel ventilation. Each model is engineered for reliable performance under high humidity, dust loading, and continuous duty cycles.
Featuring precision-balanced impellers and heavy-gauge steel or corrosion-resistant alloy housings, FBC fans deliver airflow up to 150,000 CFM and static pressures to 4 kPa. Premium IE4 motors and direct-drive configurations eliminate belt losses, maximizing mechanical efficiency.
Optional variable frequency drive (VFD) integration provides demand-based ventilation, automatically adjusting fan speed based on real-time sensor input for airflow, pressure, and gas concentration. This adaptive control can reduce energy consumption by up to 25% compared to fixed-speed designs.
Maintenance is simplified through split-casing construction, quick-release impeller cartridges, and external lubrication points. With explosion-proof and high-temperature packages available, the FBC series delivers safe, efficient, and customizable airflow solutions for the most challenging subterranean environments.
