Centrifugal fan with belt drive
Our experts engineer each industrial centrifugal fan to match your process conditions and specific requirements.
the core component of any ventilation system
Performance-optimized centrifugal fans are an indispensable factor in ventilation systems. Centrifugal fans with belt drive make it possible to set different speed levels and thus increase output at short notice. This allows operation with variable volume flows or in rooms of different sizes. Optimal efficiency can also be achieved.
Centrifugal fans with belt drive also offer a long service life.

What are the distinguishing features of centrifugal fans with a belt drive?
Centrifugal fans differ mostly from conventional fans in how the belt drive and intermediate shaft are arranged. They do not necessarily need a frequency converter. The fan and drive (motor) are decoupled, enabling low-resonance operation. Altogether, there are various factors and criteria that make centrifugal fans with a belt drive a favourable option. These include:
A range of series and performance parameters for needs-focused applications
Scalable pressure change or increase
Extraction or ventilation, depending on the application
Straightforward commissioning process – with support if required
Low-maintenance and efficient operation
Where are centrifugal fans with a belt drive used?
In principle, centrifugal fans are used wherever specific or gaseous media need to be moved. Centrifugal fans with belt drive are the ideal choice when operating conditions or production processes require scalable performance parameters and the ability to handle short-term peak loads. Important areas of application include:
Industrial and production processes
Laboratories, boiler rooms or areas containing hazardous materials
Manufacturing workshops

What criteria should be used to select the right centrifugal fan?
Depending on function and performance, you can choose between different designs and sizes for a centrifugal fan with belt drive. In functional terms, the required efficiency, volume flow, performance or speed, the pressure variation of the fan and the temperature are important selection criteria.
On the technical side, factors such as impeller diameter, impeller width, blade curvature and housing position play a role. We will be happy to advise you on your specific operating processes.
Are there additional options for belt-driven centrifugal fans?
There are various ways of counteracting premature wear when conveying abrasive media – that is, materials that cause friction or have an abrasive effect. If the plant handles explosive media or the fan is used in similarly hazardous areas, safety is ensured by a design that complies with the ATEX directive and features the relevant certification.
Additionally, selected sensor values (such as speed) are monitored, queried and evaluated during operation, enabling the operator to check and, if necessary, adjust the performance parameters.
What are the advantages of centrifugal fans with a belt drive from Scheuch COMPONENTS?
Thanks to the quality-tested belts used by Scheuch COMPONENTS, the service intervals of our centrifugal fans with belt drive are longer. In some cases, no time-consuming retensioning is required after the initial adjustment or setup. As with other fan designs, you can also draw on our wide range of additional and safety equipment for centrifugal fans if required.
High standards for your centrifugal fan
With three different drive types, six impeller types, 12 model series and 31 nominal sizes, Scheuch COMPONENTS offers a broad range of fans for a wide variety of tasks and applications. In addition to this high-quality standardized portfolio of around 1,700 centrifugal fan types in different sizes, we also offer needs-based solutions. These are tailored to your specific requirements and the conditions on site. Simply get in touch with our consultants!
