Industrial Exhaust Fan Wheels

  There are three basic wheel types available with Murphy-Rodgers exhaust fans: EH for heavy material handling EM-1 for light and fibrous material handeling and EA-1 for air handling.  Each wheel design has different characteristics for different applications.

     The following descriptions should help you choose the proper wheel for your needs.  If you have any questions or problems, please contact our fan experts for advice.

 

1. Heavy Material Handling Wheel EH

This open wheel is designed for most industrial material handling requirements.  It is accurately fabricated from extra heavy steel plate to withstand severe shock and abrasion in high material volume application.
Note: Use EM-1 performance charts for seleting
          the fan size (exact performance charts are
          available on request).

2. Fibrous Material Handling Wheel EM-1

This wheel is similar to the open design EH, but has a back plate to prevent long, fibrous or stringy materials like paper trim or rags from wrapping around the blades. Wheel EM-1 can also handle most of the same materials as the open wheel with slightly higher efficiency.  The back plate and individual blade supports add extra rigidly and strength to the wheel.

3. Air Handling wheel EA-1

The air handling wheel EA-1 is ideal for the efficient handling of relatively clean air. It features a backward inclined, radial tipped design with a coned shroud and back plate for added rigidity and strenght. The air flow is guided by this controlled inlet clearence. Wheel EA-1 has the highest efficiency of our three wheel designs.

  This wheel is used extensively for pulling air through filters or separators. It should not be used for handling materials.
