Centrifugal fan with coupling drive
Our experts engineer each industrial centrifugal fan to match your process conditions and specific requirements.
The right centrifugal fan with coupling drive to meet your needs
The centrifugal fan is the core component and driving force of every ventilation system.
With a coupling-driven centrifugal fan, the drive acts on the intermediate shaft via an elastic coupling, without an upstream transmission. For larger dimensions, the components of the centrifugal fan can also be mounted on concrete foundations instead of the steel base.

The special features of centrifugal fans with coupling drive
Whatever the sector or industry, centrifugal fans with coupling drive can be used in a wide variety of ways. This type is particularly suitable for high motor power.
The coupling (usually a jaw coupling with an elastic insert) dampens shocks and torsional vibrations and is therefore gentle on the materials.
In addition, misalignment (angular, parallel and axial) between the motor shaft and the intermediate shaft can be compensated to a certain degree. This has the advantage that the motor can be removed relatively easily. In the event of damage, for example, process downtime is kept as short as possible because quick replacement is ensured.
Where are centrifugal fans with coupling drive used?
When the impeller is mounted directly on the motor shaft, the bearing is heated by the conveying medium on one side and by the motor on the other side. As the distance between the fan housing and the drive motor is greater in the case of centrifugal fans with coupling drive, this type of fan is particularly well suited to use in high temperatures.
If the conveying medium reaches around 450 °C, further measures must be taken.
Centrifugal fans with coupling drive are often used in the cement industry due to the particularly harsh operating conditions present there.
Transport of abrasive media
For conveying abrasive media, wear protection options are available in various versions. For use in explosive atmospheres or for conveying explosive media, the fan is supplied in an ATEX-compliant design with the corresponding certification.
You can also use our additional and safety equipment for centrifugal fans to make operation even more convenient and safe.
How can I monitor the condition of my centrifugal fan?
Sensor values, for example on bearing temperatures, vibration velocity or speed monitoring, provide information on the current condition and can be evaluated during operation.
