Fans have robust, fully welded steel casings, and fan blades are statically and dynamically balanced. To maintain extra high system pressure, up to five fan units of any diameters and motor sizes can be connected in series at a single fan station. The Serpent system is more economical. Fans can move more air per unit of energy than other simpler systems. Fans are built to cope with the stresses of continuous operation, day after day, year after year. Serpent fans are available with standard or super silencers to eliminate highfrequency sounds and reduce noise levels to a minimum.
