Explosion-Proof Fans

Explosion-proof axial and centrifugal fans, 220–18,000 m³/h, 70–1,100 W, 220 / 380 V, for oil & gas, chemical and paint-shop environments. Final selection is confirmed at the duty point (airflow / static pressure / voltage / control mode) and by project verification.

Explosion-Proof Fans — selection guide

The Explosion-Proof Fans category currently lists 31 models, maximum airflow 220–18,000 m³/h, on AC motors, across 5 series. Common voltages: 220 V, 380 V.

Explosion-proof axial and centrifugal fans move air in areas where flammable gases, vapours or dusts may be present: oil & gas, chemical and pharmaceutical plants, paint shops and battery factories. Motors and construction are rated for the hazardous-area category of the installation.

How to select a Explosion-Proof Fan

  1. Define the hazardous-area zone and gas / dust group first; it fixes the motor protection concept and materials.
  2. Select the duty point as for any fan, then confirm the Ex rating with our engineers — certificates are issued per configuration.
  3. Spark-resistant construction (non-sparking impeller and housing materials) is specified per AMCA 99 type where required.

Typical applications

  • Oil & gas facilities
  • Chemical and pharmaceutical plants
  • Paint booths and solvent stores
  • Battery and hydrogen facilities

Why specify LONGWELL explosion-proof fans

Every model here is a current production item with structured data — not a catalogue scan. Curves are tested on our own wind-tunnel rigs per AMCA 210 / ISO 5801 methods, drawings and datasheets download directly, CAD is released on request, and a quotation with the duty-point check comes back within one business day. Samples ship in 1–3 days and production batches in 15–30 days from the factory in Ningbo, with ISO 9001 / 14001 / 45001 management systems and ETL, CE and RoHS documentation per product line.

FAQs — Explosion-Proof Fans

Which explosion-proof ratings are available?

Fans are configured to the zone and gas group of the project; ratings and certificates are confirmed per order. Send the zone classification with your enquiry.

Are the fans spark-resistant as well as Ex-motor rated?

Yes, spark-resistant impeller and housing combinations are available for applications that require them; specify the AMCA 99 construction type.

What is the lead time?

Standard configurations ship in 15–30 days; certified special versions on request.
