VXD Specification <br />TYPICAL SPECIFICATIONS <br />Model: VXD <br />Description: <br />Application: <br />Fan shall be a spun aluminum and G90 Galvanized, roof or wall mounted, direct drive, upblast centrifugal exhaust <br />ventilator. Fans up to and including models with a 24" nominal wheel and a 2 HP motor are suitable for wall mounting. <br />Centrifugal roof exhausters are engineered to discharge grease laden vapors, fumes and other contaminants <br />vertically away from the building. <br />All models shall be ETL Listed and comply with UL705 (electrical) Standards and CSA Std C22.2, No 113. Models 12 <br />Certifications: thru 85 are ETL Listed and comply with UL762 Standards. Fan shall bear the AMCA certified ratings seal for sound <br />and air performance. <br />Construction: <br />Housing <br />The fan windband shall be constructed of heavy gauge aluminum or G90 Galvanized and shall be spun on an automatic lathe to <br />provide consistent dimensions. Horizontal and vertical internal supports shall be used to securely fasten the windband to the discharge <br />apron to provide rigidity for hinging and added strength to reduce shipping damage. The discharge apron shall have a rolled bead for <br />added strength. <br />Base <br />The base shall be constructed of galvanized steel for improved rigidity. Base corners shall be welded to provide strength and support for <br />hinging and cleaning and to prevent leakage into the building. <br />Wheel <br />The fan wheel shall be centrifugal backward inclined and non-overloading. Wheels shall be balanced in two planes and done in <br />accordance with AMCA standard 204-96, Balance Quality and Vibration Levels for Fans. The wheel blades shall be aerodynamically <br />designed to minimize turbulence, increase efficiency and reduce noise. The wheel blades shall be welded to the wheel inlet cone. In <br />the event that balancing weights are required they shall be riveted to the blades or wheel. The wheel inlet shall overlap the fan base <br />inlet for maximum performance and efficiency. The wheel shall be firmly attached to the motor shaft with two set screws. <br />Motor & Motor Compartment <br />Standard 115 volt, open drip motors shall be permanently lubricated, rated for continuous duty and thermally protected. Motors shall be <br />mounted out of the airstream and furnished at the specified voltage, phase and enclosure. Motor mounting plate shall be constructed of <br />heavy gauge galvanized steel. The motor compartment shall be cooled by outside air drawn through an extruded aluminum conduit <br />tube. To seal the conduit tube passage and prevent noise silicone rubber grommets shall isolate the conduit tube from the fan housing. <br />The motor compartment shall be of a two-piece construction with the cap having quick release clips to provide quick and easy access to <br />the motor compartment. <br />Grease Spout <br />A grease spout made of aluminum tubing shall be welded to the fan housing. The weld shall be factory tested to ensure it will not leak. <br />Nylon Washers <br />To provide a tight seal all fasteners in the fan housing shall be backed with nylon washers. <br />Product: Fan shall be model VXD as manufactured by Ventilation Direct.
