- System static pressure – Select series rated for your pressure requirements
- Environmental conditions – Choose materials appropriate for your atmosphere
- Space constraints – Consider mounting and drive configurations
- Temperature requirements – Verify operating temperature compatibility
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I determine which series matches my requirements?
Review the comprehensive specifications table comparing CFM ranges, static pressure capabilities, and material options. Contact JEPCO for application-specific guidance on series selection.
What’s the difference between backward inclined and backward curved designs?
Both designs optimize efficiency for high-pressure applications, with backward curved typically providing slightly better efficiency curves and backward inclined offering robust performance across varying conditions.
Can these fans handle variable operating conditions?
Yes, the rotating impeller technology and various series designs accommodate changing system requirements while maintaining performance efficiency.
What support is available for fan selection and specification?
JEPCO provides detailed specifications and can offer guidance on series selection. For complex applications, contact their technical team for application-specific recommendations.
How do fiberglass options compare to metal construction?
Fiberglass construction provides chemical resistance for a number of corrosive environments. While metal options can be used with higher temperature ranges and structural strength for high-pressure applications. Depending on the chemicals in your airstream different fan materials will work better for your application. Our manufacturers also offer special coatings, liners and special options to help protect your fan from the environment it’s in.
