Fans for use in greenhouses
Modern agriculture is unthinkable without greenhouses. They make it possible to harvest crops independently of the seasons. But plants only thrive in them when the air supply and distribution are perfectly regulated. EC fans from ebm-papst are ideal for this task.
AxiCool fans with guide vanes on the outlet side are used for horizontal ventilation. They have white housings to reflect as much of the incident light (important for plant growth) as possible.
If you want a good harvest, you need ideal conditions for the plants to grow. As such, it is crucial to ensure uniform climatic conditions and optimal support for plant photosynthesis throughout the entire greenhouse. There are two ways to achieve this, which can be used together if required: horizontal ventilation to circulate the air above the plants, and tube ventilation from below to supply conditioned air.
An all-round talent based on refrigeration technology
AxiCool axial fans from ebm-papst are used for the horizontal air circulation system – products that were originally designed for use in refrigeration technology. Due to their guide vanes, the fans feature high air throw and enable precise control of the air flow. The fans are mounted on routes in the greenhouse at defined intervals. The housing is white so as to reflect as much sunlight as possible. In order to meet service life requirements, the AxiCool fans have been specifically equipped for use in very humid greenhouses. The plastic components are made from UV-resistant material, which is also easy to clean.
High-pressure axial fans for tube ventilation that supplies the plants with CO2 from below.
A true innovation: ventilation from below
A particularly innovative method is the use of ventilation tubes from below. Energy-efficient, high-pressure centrifugal or axial fans from ebm-papst are used to implement this solution. The usually conditioned air is supplied using a perforated tube. This tube is positioned below the plants, thereby providing an optimal supply of CO2 to the undersides of the leaves. The axial fans draw in air from the greenhouse’s air preparation room and force it into the tube and through the holes past the plants toward the ceiling, where it is then directed back into the intake air flow. The result is a defined circuit of air flow. The fans' excellent performance allows for particularly long tubes, which can be used in large greenhouse installations, for example.
Energy saving made easy
The fans for both methods are powered by energy-saving EC motors. The efficiency of these motors far exceeds the requirements of efficiency class IE4. With this solution, ebm-papst is further expanding the potential applications of its EC technology.
FanGrid Solutions for High Air Performance
ebm-papst now offers FanGrid modules with RadiPac centrifugal fans with automatic resonance detection for more operating reliability.
To achieve high air performance in ventilation technology, several smaller fans are combined to create a FanGrid. ebm-papst now has FanGrid modules with RadiPac centrifugal fans in its product range – with automatic resonance detection for more operating reliability.
Many applications require high air performance. Data centers, large industrial building complexes, hotels, residential complexes and hospitals are all typical examples.
Cubes prevent installation loss
At ebm-papst, fans for a FanGrid are installed in a support structure. The cube has extra-generous dimensions to prevent the undesirable installation loss that arises when fans are positioned too close together and can influence each other.
Automatic resonance detection for more operating reliability
Depending on the installation situation, resonance can cause vibrations within specific speed ranges. Such vibrations can damage the bearing system of electric motors and lead to fan failure. This is why ebm-papst has developed automatic resonance detection that minimizes the effects of vibration – vibration velocity – for its RadiPac centrifugal fans.
Energy-efficient EC technology with convenient closed-loop control
The driving force behind the fans installed in the fan grid are modern EC motors, which are highly energy efficient in both full- and partial-load operation. The FanGrid line is rounded out by a new controller that easily activates fans operated in parallel. It requires minimal wiring work. ebm-papst FanGrid modules are available as plug & play-compatible units or as complete kits consisting of the fans, air inlet grill, support plate, corner connectors and spacer profiles for direct installation on site.
Smaller, lighter, better: FanGrid
In practice, FanGrids have many benefits. The individual fans can be arranged next to or above each other to save space. They significantly improve air distribution and ensure a more even airflow through upstream or downstream components such as filters or heat exchangers. Their redundancy also increases operating reliability, since the other fans compensate for missing air performance. The relevant redundancy requirements can be taken into account during the selection process.
Compact external-rotor fans turn up the pressure
Now RadiPac centrifugal fans are also available for high pressures up to 2,500 pascals.
When the air needed for air conditioning and ventilation is moved over long distances, the fans being used have to work at high pressure to ensure that the required amount of air is delivered in spite of back pressure. ebm-papst has specially adapted its RadiPac centrifugal fan to meet these requirements.
Narrower impeller for more pressure
The impeller has been aerodynamically optimized and the blade outlet width narrowed to enable the higher speeds that result in higher pressure. The new RadiPac are designed for high outlet pressures of up to 2,500 pascals and, depending on their size, enable flow rates of up to approximately 15,000 m³/h.
Space-saving external rotor design
The proven external rotor design has been retained, so the high-pressure models are also axially compact and require little space for installation. The fans are driven by high-efficiency GreenTech EC motors, which can be flexibly controlled and intelligently interconnected. Plug & play is no problem thanks to simple connections and commissioning.
High-pressure fans
There are many situations in which fans have to work at high pressure, including complex air distribution networks or air ducts that have to fit in tight false ceilings and naturally need to have small cross sections. This is also the case for air handling units (AHUs) in airports when incoming air passes through an activated carbon filter to minimize pollutant levels. Steam and droplet separators with many pipe bends also cause high pressure losses and call for corresponding performance from the fans used in them.
Expanded portfolio
ebm-papst has expanded its product portfolio, now supplying reliable centrifugal fans with proven EC external rotor design for applications that have to overcome high pressures to achieve optimum air flow. Sizes 630, 560, 400 and 355 are available now.
AxiBlade sets benchmark – expansion of the product range
The AxiBlade range from ebm-papst will be expanded to include additional fans in smaller sizes.
Axial fans, which are used in air-conditioning and refrigeration systems such as evaporators, condensers, and heat pumps, must fulfill high requirements with regard to air flow, energy efficiency, and noise. The motor and fan specialist ebm-papst has already set a new benchmark here with the launch of the AxiBlade product range. Now this successful product range will be expanded to include additional fans in smaller sizes.
Modular design
With the AxiBlade fans, which were developed in the sizes 630 and 710, the impellers are made of a composite material with profiled blade geometry and winglets for maximum efficiency. The impellers are designed for different motors with which they can be combined. The sturdy guard grills are optimized according to aerodynamic criteria. The robust sheet metal ring with corrosion-resistant paint contributes to the fans’ greater overall stability. The first variants of the AxiBlade fans with impeller diameters 630 and 710 will be available in March, after the ISH 2019 trade show. By the end of the year, these AxiBlade fans with additional motor variants will be available in both EC technology and AC technology. Therefore, the new fans can handle air flows up to 25,000 m³/h, with a maximum pressure range of up to 450 Pa.
Plug & play design
Thanks to their plug & play design, these fans can be connected easily and their identical installation dimensions enable a like for like replacement of previous fans in the customer's device. The flat design of the AxiBlade fans can prove beneficial when transporting customer devices.
ErP Directive compliant
AxiBlade axial fans operate in a wide variety of applications with a static efficiency of up to 53%. Depending on how they are installed, the noise level can also be reduced by up to 4 dB(A) as compared to the previous product range. With regard to efficiency, all AxiBlade fans exceed the current ErP requirements and they are therefore a future-proof choice.

A centrifugal fan with scroll housing
The new RadiCal centrifugal fan in an aerodynamically optimized scroll housing, shown here with FlowGrid.
Fan specialist ebm-papst has the right solution for the increasingly strict requirements regarding the efficiency of ventilation devices for residential buildings. In addition to high efficiency, new housed fans now feature convenient options for communication and operation and are also quieter than the industry standard.
Special fans that control both air intake and exhaust are needed for room ventilation in both new and renovated buildings. Until now, fans with forward-curved impellers were used for central home ventilation units with and without heat recovery. But the proven RadiCal centrifugal fans with free-running backward-curved impellers deliver significantly better results for both efficiency and noise emission. Now ebm-papst has combined its proven RadiCal with an aerodynamically optimized scroll housing for use in central home ventilation units.
Several benefits in practice
The scroll housing with its round exhaust opening connects directly to the pipe fitting on the ventilation unit’s outlet, considerably reducing the usual flow losses while the air performance remains very pressure-insensitive and the efficiency increases by up to 34% compared to centrifugal blowers of the same construction. In addition, the noise level is reduced by 3.5 dB(A), as already confirmed in numerous tests. Installation-induced noises that arise during operation and are undesirable in living areas can also be reduced. The optional FlowGrid air inlet grill can be mounted on the intake side if needed. This results in agreeable acoustic characteristics as it minimizes unpleasant low-frequency sounds caused by obstructive fittings inside the unit. The fan is controlled and its operating data read out via the MODBUS RTU option.
Plug & play system, ready to install
The RadiCal centrifugal fans in 3D scroll housings are offered as ready-to-install plug & play solutions in size 190 with various output levels up to 170 W. They will be available from April 2017.

Cube design with airfoil blades
RadiPac centrifugal with cube design.
Having established itself in the market, the RadiPac series of centrifugal fans from ebm-papst is adding new members. Thanks to aerodynamic improvements, all of the fans in the series work with a wide optimum efficiency range and also feature other practical characteristics. One new feature is their mechanical design, which features a cubic structure.
The practically designed cube modules available for sizes 630 and larger enable users to isolate the fans from their surroundings with rubber isolators or spring elements in order to ensure even quieter operation. An optional guide profile set is still available so the fans can be easily inserted into AHU equipment. There are no grounds to fear flow losses thanks to the aerodynamic design of the cube struts. They can be easily floor-mounted with horizontal or vertical motor shaft. Depending on motor size, the centrifugal fans are also available with the proven support bracket for mounting on equipment walls.
Wide optimum efficiency range
Their wide optimum efficiency range and static overall efficiency of 68% make it possible to operate the fans over a wide range with low power consumption, an advantage if it becomes necessary to change a ventilation system’s operating point, for example due to changes in the duct system. Another reason to change operating points could be gradual clogging of the filters in the AHU equipment. The wide optimum efficiency range is the result of ideal interplay among all of the fan’s components and the smooth speed control typical of EC motors.
Airfoil blades for reduced weight
Like the RadiPac with support brackets, the cube modules are equipped with the special Airfoil blades made of aluminum, which lower the impeller weight while increasing both stiffness and efficiency. Extensive aerodynamic improvements for all RadiPac models increased the efficiency by more than 13% over earlier models.
Air performance levels up to 40,000 m³/h
The RadiPac fans with cube design are available now in sizes from 630 to 1,000. With drive power of 0.5 to 12 kilowatts and sizes from 250 to 1,000, air performance of up to 40,000 m³/h can now be achieved with the RadiPac centrifugal fans from ebm-papst.

Chillventa 2016
Every two years, the fan sector presents its latest product developments at Chillventa, in Nuremberg. During the Chillventa trade show, from October 11-13, 2016 the very latest developments in energy efficiency, heat pumps, and refrigeration technology were presented.
On an exhibition area greater than 700 m², ebm-papst showed many other recent developments in its fan and system lines. The company's stand design is ultra modern: it uses large touchscreens to clearly explain the product benefits.
At Chillventa, we presented the "AxiCool" axial fan for evaporators and refrigerators. Whereas sizes up to 450 are mainly suitable for commercial applications and small store rooms on sales premises, the new sizes 500, 630 and 800 of AxiCool fans are intended for larger-scale applications, for instance in large cold stores or warehouses and production facilities used in the food processing and foodstuffs industries. This means that practical and highly energy-efficient axial fans are now available for high-performance evaporators in industrial and commercial cooling systems.
Apart from this, we presented the new "AxiBlade", a revolutionary concept for axial fans. With the AxiBlade, ebm-papst has developed a new generation of axial fans that utilizes all the potential optimizations opened up by the latest technology. The concept is based on a modular system consisting of fan housings of different heights with an aerodynamically optimized geometry. In addition, there are impellers with a profiled blade geometry, winglets and guide vanes to ensure maximum efficiency. This enables the new axial fans to be optimally designed for specific applications.

Axial fan with integrated diffuser
Modern heating calls for new concepts based on renewable energy instead of fossil fuel. This is why heat pumps are enjoying increased popularity. Modern EC fans make a significant contribution to ensuring that they operate efficiently, economically and extremely quietly. Motor and fan specialist ebm-papst has once again set new standards in this area.
The size 500 axial fans from ebm-papst were specially engineered for use in outdoor heat pumps and now they have been optimized for energy efficiency and noise reduction. The ready-to-connect plug & play unit consists of the new, patented fan housing system with an integrated diffuser, motor, electronics and HyBlade® impeller – all perfectly harmonized. With its pressure-raising effect, the diffuser integrated in the fan housing lowers outlet losses significantly, allowing an air performance increase of up to 10% while reducing noise by up to 3 dB(A). For the entire fan system, this adds up to 23% more efficiency than conventional solutions – the best prerequisite for a high COP (coefficient of performance) value for the entire heat pump.
The GreenTech EC motors can also be controlled via their serial RS485 MODBUS RTU interfaces or 0-10 V DC control inputs, enabling high efficiency even in partial-load operation. The fans can run at lower speeds at night, for example. This is especially important for heat pumps used in residential buildings, where sound emission must be kept as low as possible. The new axial fans will be available in summer 2016.

Axial fans for high-performance evaporators
The axial fan family for evaporators – "AxiCool" from ebm-papst – has new members. The new sizes – 500, 630 and 800 – are designed with high-performance evaporators and air coolers in the commercial and industrial cooling sectors in mind. They are ideal for use in large cold storage facilities and the refrigerated warehouses and production rooms used in the food processing and food industries.
ebm-papst chose the system approach once again when developing the new AxiCool fans. All of the individual fan components are perfectly matched, enabling them to achieve maximum benefits with regard to efficiency, output and noise. The result is an energy-efficient plug & play unit with low noise generation that is ready to install.
As their heat exchangers become more and more iced over, fans must frequently work at a higher back pressure. This reduces the fan’s efficiency, and that of the entire refrigerating plant in turn. The new AxiCool series enables efficient cooling despite this situation. Its integrated diffuser and discharge vane combination increases efficiency by over 30%. This allows the air performance to increase by up to 12% while reducing noise by up to 3 dB(A).
The efficiency-boosting discharge vane is integrated in all AxiCool variants. A cable provides easy, standard connection. An optional terminal box also enables a heating tape to be connected, rounding out the product line. The heating tape can be retrofitted very easily when needed. All sizes are available in both the high-end variant with a fan housing cover and the standard variant without a fan housing cover. The fan housing cover offers an advantage when the hygiene requirements are rigorous, since its smooth surfaces attract fewer contaminants and are easier to clean. In addition, a defrost bag can easily be attached to the exterior of the fan housing cover.
All variants are engineered for operation down to -40 °C as standard, and with degree of protection IP55, they are extremely durable. The AxiCool series is very compact thanks to its external rotor fan design, enabling compact designs for the evaporator units in which it is installed. The new fans will be available in all sizes as 1-phase and 3-phase AC variants and with efficient GreenTech EC technology in summer 2016.

The RadiPac centrifugal fan sets new benchmark
The new generation of EC centrifugal fans
ebm-papst reinvents the wheel.
The experts at ebm-papst Mulfingen have long been involved in a continuous improvement process, which ultimately benefits both the environment and the customer's wallet in equal measure. As a result, the RadiPac product range, specifically designed for use in ventilation and air conditioning equipment, has been steadily improved in recent years.
The fan specialists have therefore once again taken the flow machines one step further. The main focus of this re-engineering centres around the area where air enters the impeller, the position of the external rotor motor in the impeller and the impeller's blade profile.
The inlet nozzle, for example, was redesigned to perfectly match the impeller with its aerodynamically optimised blade channel. The motor's position in the impeller was also improved to achieve a good compromise between the compactness of the overall fan unit and an aerodynamically optimal placement of the motor in the impeller. In the impellers themselves, new hollow aluminium blades result in higher efficiency; their special shape reduces the weight of the impeller while simultaneously increasing its stability. Pressure losses at the inlet were reduced further and the outflow behaviour was also improved. The air is already channelled in the main flow direction of the air-conditioning device at the air outlet, significantly reducing deflection losses. The results of the optimisation are impressive. All told, the redesign of the flow machine resulted in an efficiency increase of more than 10 percent for the RadiPac fans. while also reducing their noise level by over 3 dB(A). The new centrifugal fans run very quietly.
Since the motor and the electronics integrated in the motor system are also already perfectly adjusted to one another in EC RadiPac fans, additional electronic filters and shielded cables are unnecessary. Moreover, with the continuous closed-loop speed control typical of EC motors, the air performance of the fans can be exactly adapted to specific requirements. Communication is possible via the 0‑10V input or MODBUS-RTU. The external rotor motors work without the rare-earth magnets critical to supply, and boast efficiency rates of well over 90 percent.
The new RadiPac fans will be available from autumn 2015 in sizes 250 to 560. This will make efficient, quiet and compact plug & play fans available for many applications, which do not only deliver outstanding results in central air conditioning units, but are also suitable for cooling performance electronics such as inverters.

Efficiency on top: the new AxiTop diffuser.
For most manufacturers, aerodynamic optimisations to fans are limited to the impellers and housing. Still, reducing air outlet losses also has a great effect on the efficiency and noise behaviour of the fan. Starting now, our new AxiTop diffuser is taking care of this. It can be customised exactly to the specific application and reduce energy con sumption by up to 22 % and volume by up to 5.7 dB(A).

Intelligent savings: ESM and iQ².
Saving money made easy: Our iQ² and energy-saving motors (ESM) reduce energy consumption by up to 70 % compared to conventional split-pole motors. Thanks to the identical dimensions, replacement could not be easier – as is also true for installing axial impellers up to 300 mm. In addition, the integrated electronics offer many control functions, such as different operating modes. An attachable interface model (ESM+) allows additional functions to be integrated quickly. Moreover, motors with EX protection and 24 VDC low voltage are available specifically for use in refrigeration, as are fans made of epylen, our biomaterial. This material saves a large amount of energy even during manufacture.

Double material revolution: RadiCal and HyBlade®.
The future has arrived: Our fans with a dimensionally stable hybrid structure employ a unique material composition that reduces swirl and guides the air flow in a more targeted manner. In heat pumps and many other applications, our centrifugal and axial lightweight fans repeatedly set new standards. In addition to the innovative materials, which enable optimised flow behaviour and therefore drastic noise reduction, the use of latest-generation GreenTech EC motors enables greater power density with significantly lower operating costs. Consequently, the switch from conventional AC fans to high-efficiency, ground-breaking GreenTech EC technology pays for itself extremely quickly. That’s revolutionary!
