Air doors and air curtains
Air curtains stop warm air flowing into cold stores or incoming goods facilities, on opening an access door for example. It is particularly important that the fans are efficient and start up quickly for this application. They must also ensure that an air curtain is created as quickly as possible after a door is opened.
The advantages of fans from ebm-papst in air doors and air curtains:
· Quick start-up
· Quick and easy commissioning
· High power density
· Reliable operation even at high temperatures
· Modular connection/configuration possible – so you can extend your air curtain at any time
· Standard-compliant parallel connection thanks to active PFC
· Impeller, motor, control electronics, and housing form a compact unit
Heat exchangers and condensers
In air-cooled condensers, the heat from the gaseous refrigerant is transferred to the ambient air. Axial fans are usually used to direct air at the fins of the heat exchanger in the condenser, dissipating the heat. In this process, the refrigerant is cooled down to such an extent in the condenser that it condenses. Alongside high air performance, the focus in such applications is on low energy consumption.
The advantages of fans from ebm-papst in heat exchangers and condensers:
· Robust design for outdoor use
· Far greater efficiency and power density in the same installation space
· Unprecedented, uncompromising planning flexibility
· Infinitely variable control characteristics permit simple adaptation to the output actually required
AHUs in data centers
Use is made of AHUs or computer room air handlers (CRAH) in data centers to reduce the amount of waste heat. This requires efficient, individually controllable devices that can adapt to the actual thermal load in the data center.
The advantages of fans from ebm-papst in AHUs:
· High power density
· Unrivaled compactness
· Perfectly coordinated components
· High efficiency thanks to enhanced ventilation technology and new EC motors
· Extremely quiet operation thanks to optimized flow through the impeller
· EC fans with two speed levels or infinitely variable control
· Compliance with ErP specifications
Server cooling
Trends such as mobile internet, cloud computing and internet TV require ever more capacity to deal with an increasing volume of data. As a result, data centers have become major energy consumers. In the light of the ongoing demand for yet more computational capacity, it is well worth switching to energy-efficient fans. This is where modern EC technology really does its bit: for instance, by protecting the environment and keeping running costs under control.

· High efficiency thanks to enhanced ventilation technology and new EC motors
· High power density
· Unrivaled compactness
· Perfectly coordinated components
· Extremely quiet operation thanks to optimized flow through the impeller
· EC fans with two speed levels or infinitely variable control
· Compliance with ErP specifications
Fan coil units
Choosing a suitable fan is no easy matter for fan coil unit manufacturers: Not only does it have to have the necessary output, operate quietly and be suitable for installation in the fan coil housing, the chosen fan drive’s operating principle also has to be appropriate to the requirements. After all, this has a decisive influence on energy consumption and, therefore, the operating costs.
The advantages of fans from ebm-papst in fan coil units:
· Low noise emissions thanks to aerodynamically optimized fans
· Single, twin and triple fan versions available
· Robust design with rigid, aerodynamically shaped plastic housing
· Highly efficient GreenTech EC motor
· Infinitely variable speed control
· Simple commissioning, as motor, electronics and control system are all from the same supplier
Roof fans
Roof fans convey stale air out of toilets, bathrooms, restaurants or industrial buildings into the open. This is done either directly or using a duct system. This application has a particular need for efficient fans that are capable of moving large amounts of air under high pressure.
The advantages of fans from ebm-papst in roof fans:
· Perfectly coordinated components
· High efficiency thanks to enhanced ventilation technology and new EC motors
· Extremely quiet operation thanks to optimized flow through the impeller
· Unrivaled compactness
· High power density
· Robust design and maintenance-free operation
· Extremely simple commissioning
Precision air-conditioning units
Precision air-conditioning units or computer room air conditioners (CRAC) provide reliable air conditioning in data centers. By controlling the temperature and humidity, they create ideal ambient conditions for servers and IT equipment. Particularly worthy of mention are redundant solutions, offering fail-safe, energy-efficient operation.

FFU/EFU
Special rooms come with special demands. In cleanroom operation, this means clean air with a high air exchange rate, sufficient pressure, exact temperature and humidity control, and air quality that is always consistent. To achieve all this, powerful ventilation systems (filter-fan-units) are required.
Filter-fan-units are used to supply production and filling facilities with ultra-clean air. They are mainly employed in ceiling-mounted systems in clean rooms in chip factories, bottle filling or plastic mold-ing facilities, the pharmaceutical industry and microstructure technology. These applications need everything to work together perfectly with reliable and durable fans.
These units made up of filter technology and fan ensure the required recirculating air mode. They also prevent contamination in the air and damage or impairments when producing sensitive products. In addition, ebm papst FFUs are extremely quiet, satisfying the strict noise protection conditions for production in clean rooms.
The advantages of FFU products from ebm papst in clean rooms:
A controlled cleanroom atmosphere is produced by a ventilation system that regulates the supply of clean fresh air, in order to keep the particle content of the air to a minimum.
Air heaters
The large volume of air that has to be warmed up in large industrial buildings, sports halls and stores means that heating them efficiently is a real challenge. Modern wall or ceiling-mounted air heaters produce the right temperature in indoor areas quickly, permitting versatile use.
The advantages of fans from ebm-papst in air heaters:
· Optimum efficiency at every operating point
· High-efficiency blade profile
· Low weight
· Low noise emissions
· Great flexibility when planning
FanGrids
In FanGrids, multiple small fans operate in parallel, rather than having one large fan. This provides redundancy, ensuring fail-safe operation. What's more, multiple, adjustable fans can adapt more easily to the actual air performance that is required, meaning that they increase the efficiency levels at every operating point. As optimum design is particularly important when planning FanGrids, ebm-papst is always pleased to offer customers the appropriate assistance.
The advantages of fans from ebm papst in FanGrids:
· Great overall efficiency
· Low noise emissions
· Optimized outflow characteristics for ideal flow control
· Compact design
· Stepless speed control characteristics
