FAQ

 

Q: What is the difference between AMCA Type A, Type B, and Type C anti-spark construction?

A: Type A: All airstream components are made of non-ferrous material (e.g., aluminum or brass).
Type B: The fan wheel is non-ferrous, and a non-ferrous ring surrounds the shaft hole in the casing.
Type C: The airstream is constructed so that rubbing ferrous parts cannot contact each other (typically a brass inlet ring paired with a steel wheel).

Q: How do anti-static FRP fans prevent electrostatic sparks in Zone 1 environments?

A: Standard plastics accumulate static charge from air friction, which can discharge as a spark. Our anti-static FRP contains graphite/carbon particles distributed within the vinyl ester matrix. This drops surface electrical resistance below 10^9 Ohms, allowing static charges to continuously bleed off safely to the grounded metal frame.

Q: Are your explosion-proof fans suitable for hydrogen (Gas Group IIC) applications?

A: Yes. For hydrogen, acetylene, or carbon disulfide environments requiring Gas Group IIC protection, we supply fans featuring flameproof Ex d IIC motors, non-sparking brass inlet rings, increased gap clearances, and full electrostatic grounding.

Q: Can these fans be operated with a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) for speed control?

A: Yes. When using a VFD in hazardous areas, the motor must be certified for VFD operation (equipped with PTC thermistors in windings) to prevent over-temperature conditions at lower running speeds. We supply VFD-compatible flameproof motors specified for hazardous area speed control.

Q: What certifications accompany your explosion-proof fans upon dispatch?

A: Each unit ships with a complete compliance binder containing the main motor ATEX / IECEx certificate, fan factory test report (FAT), dynamic balance sheet, earth continuity certificate, and declaration of conformity under European directives.
