The efficient system solution.

GreenTech EC technology
in a new dimension.
Thanks to the new axial fans, our highly efficient GreenTech EC technology is now available
for the medium pressure range for the first time. Not only does this create new possibilities,
it also makes things easier.

Fields of application.
Medium pressure axial fans with GreenTech EC motors are used
wherever high volume flows need to be moved against medium
pressures. Examples of this include shock freezers or cold storage
facilities, as well as process cooling applications.

In an efficiency class of their own.

Energy efficiency legislation is becoming ever more stringent.

­European Ecodesign Regulation EU 640/2009 has also gradually 95

Power consumption of AC fans (on/off operation)
The adjustment of the air flow to the current requirements is a Power consumption of EC fans (continuous)
­decisive factor for a system’s energy consumption. For AC fans, this Savings from continuous speed adjustment
75 %
is often achieved by switching individual fans on or off. In contrast,
GreenTech EC fans have an integrated variable speed drive, which
can be used to adjust the air mass to requirements. When the fan

speed n is reduced, the input power Pe decreases drastically (P~n³).

A simple sample calculation makes the enormous potential for

25 %
­savings clear: A system with four fans arranged in parallel consumes
40 kW in rated operation. If this system is operated over one year,
with an average of half the time in the design point and the other
half of the time at half the rated air flow, this results in energy
