Industrial fans are divided into different types according to their intended use and design features. In general, the main fan types are as follows:

  1. Axial Fans:It moves the air in the direction of the fan axis. Used in high flow, low pressure applications. Ideal for ventilation and cooling.
  2. Radial (Snail) Fans:It takes the air from the fan center and removes it outward in a radial direction. It is preferred in industrial applications requiring high pressure and low flow rate.
  3. Plug Fans:Although similar to the axial fan type, it provides high performance and efficiency thanks to its special design. Generally used in HVAC systems.
  4. Roof Fans:Axial or radial fans mounted on the roof, generally used for ventilation.
  5. Eccentric Fans:Special fans designed for flexible applications that can direct air at different angles.
  6. Exproof Fans:ATEX certified, non-sparking fans for safe use in explosive gas and dust environments.
  7. Centrifugal Fans:It belongs to the group of radial fans and creates high pressure. Used in heavy industry sectors such as chemistry, cement, energy.

Apart from these basic types, there are also different special fan types depending on the area of use and technical specifications. Which fan to choose depends on ambient conditions and needs.
