EC fans with spark proof IP68-ATEX certification

Constructed for Zone 2 equipment that require a spark proof fan design with a higher air flow, the OA254 Series EC Fan delivers air flows of 500 to 830 CFM.

EC fans can be used in most any AC fan application with the added benefit of power savings of up to 50%. EC fans often enable customers to meet energy-consumption requirements from agencies like ENERGY STAR.

The EC fan family is designed for both new equipment and retrofitting into existing designs. Ideal as a drop-in replacement for AC fans, the larger OA254 IP68-ATEX Series EC fans are suited for oil & gas applications including oil rig and oil refining equipment. The fans are also used in walk-in refrigeration systems, commercial display coolers, EV and charging systems, servers, food services equipment, and other applications.

"We expanded the family of EC fans to meet customer requests for a larger version with higher airflows that can be used as a drop-in replacement for existing AC fans," said David Luna, VP of Marketing for Orion Fans. "The EC-IP68-ATEX fans deliver substantial operating cost savings in power-hungry applications that require a spark proof and water resistant fan design to thwart potentially dangerous and harmful situations and harsh environment applications."

Orion Fans' family of IP68-ATEX EC fans are available in a range of sizes including 60, 120, 172, and 254mm. Most models are available with a universal voltage range of 94 to 264 VAC. Standard EC Fans modules are offered in sizes ranging from 60 to 254mm.

The OA254EC-ATEX Series EC Fan starts at $145.00 in small quantities.
