Explosion-Proof Fans — selection guide
Explosion-Proof Fans: 31 models, maximum airflow 2,100–18,000 m³/h, AC motors, across 5 series.
Explosion-proof fans for hazardous areas: LWEX-AF axial fans, LWEX-WF and LWEX-WFS wall fans, LWWEX-OR external-rotor wall fans and the LWSFPEX portable safe-area axial unit, 2,100 to 18,000 m³/h with 70–1,100 W motors on 220 / 380 V. Motors and construction are matched to the zone and gas group of the installation and certified per configuration.
How to select from this range
- Define the hazardous-area zone and gas / dust group first; it fixes the motor protection concept and materials.
- Select the duty point as for any fan, then confirm the Ex rating with our engineers — certificates are issued per configuration.
- Specify spark-resistant construction (AMCA 99 type A / B / C) where the application requires it.
Where these fans are used
- Oil & gas facilities
- Chemical and pharmaceutical plants
- Paint booths and solvent stores
- Battery and hydrogen facilities
Curves in the selector are digitised from each model’s published catalogue curve; wind-tunnel measured curves (AMCA 210 / ISO 5801 methods) are labelled “measured” where available — see the test labs and certificates. Final selection is confirmed at the duty point and by project validation.
FAQ — Explosion-Proof Fans
Which explosion-proof fan types are available?
Axial (LWEX-AF), wall (LWEX-WF / WFS), external-rotor wall (LWWEX-OR) and portable (LWSFPEX) formats, 2,100–18,000 m³/h. The model code LWWEX-OR-3A-0.14-2P gives the size class, motor power in kW and pole count.
Are spark-resistant impellers available?
Yes, non-sparking impeller and housing combinations are offered for applications that require them; state the AMCA 99 construction type with your enquiry.
What is the lead time for explosion-proof fans?
Standard configurations ship in 15–30 days; certified special versions on request.
