Fans and Fan Drives

Radial fans with direct drive are genuine all-rounders and demonstrate their worth with various advantages. As the driving force of your ventilation system, a radial fan ensures that your operational processes run as they should. Thanks to the direct drive, the fan has a compact design and is highly efficient. At Scheuch COMPONENTS, radial fans with direct drive are available in a wide range of designs, and tailored solutions matched to your specific needs are offered too. Depending on your individual needs, you can choose between several designs which differ in terms of volume flow, motor power, pressure increase or temperature.

The radial fan is the core component and driving force of any ventilation system. In this case, the drive takes the form of an elastic coupling acting on the intermediate shaft – without the kind of upstream transmission that would be found on a belt drive. In situations involving larger dimensions, the fan components can be embedded into a concrete foundation instead of a steel bracket. Radial fans with coupling drive can be used in diverse applications across a range of industries and sectors. This type of fan is particularly well suited to situations involving high motor power. The coupling (generally a claw coupling with an elastic insert) can absorb shocks and torsional vibrations, thus protecting the material. Furthermore, an offset (angular, parallel or axial offset) between the motor shaft and intermediate shaft can be compensated to a certain extent, which means that the motor is relatively easy to dismount.
