High Volume High Efficiency The heart of Chicago’s Design 51 centrifugal fan is the airfoil wheel, the most efficient type for Single Width Airfoil Fans clean air applications. This fan has an enviable reputation for performance and reliability in a multitude of applications, including industrial supply or exhaust systems. The Design 51 singlewidth is a rugged fan built to Chicago’s industrial level of quality and long-term dependability. Single-width fans are offered in Sizes 135 to 890, with pressures to 20" WG and volumes to 220,000 CFM. Construction flexibility is one of the strengths...

Airfoil Wheel Performance Widely recognized for design efficiency and integrity, Chicago’s Design 51 airfoil wheel has ideal characteristics for variable air volume systems. With a smooth, steep pressure curve, major changes in pressure will cause only minor changes in volume. The broad high-efficiency operating range offers extensive selections and capabilities within each fan size. The fan's deep spun inlet and hyperbolic wheel cone plus generous housing proportions provide a smooth stable air flow over the entire performance range. Precision balancing assures quieter...

Performance and Convenience Options Inlet Volume Control The Inlet Volume Control (IVC) provides precise air control and more efficient performance at partial loads. Adjustable guide vanes pre-spin the incoming air in the same rotation as the wheel to produce the desired volume of air at the exact pressure. Vanes are mounted entirely within the inlet cone.The IVC is suitable for manual or automatic operation. Shaft Seal Flanged/ Slip Inlet The compressed sheet seal mounted between steel side shaft opening. Shaft seals are not gas tight. plates is designed to reduce leakage through the drive...

Unitary Base Fan and adjustable motor base are welded onto a unitary base of continuously welded structural steel channel. Vibration isolators also available. (Refer to page 30 for base dimensions.) Shaft and Bearing Guard The expanded metal guard encloses the shaft and bearings from the housing side to just beyond the outboard bearing. Extended grease fittings are recommended. Belt Guard Three sides are fully enclosed with expanded metal on the fourth side for ventilation and visual inspection. Easily removed for drive servicing. Access Doors The flush mounted door features...
