A water-driven fan is an industrial cooling and ventilation device powered by water flow instead of electricity or compressed air. These fans use the kinetic energy of water to rotate the fan blades, generating airflow for cooling, ventilation, or drying purposes. They are commonly used in environments where electricity is limited or hazardous, such as mining, offshore platforms, and high-humidity areas. They are for degassing of tanker ships. These fans are driven by water pressure from fire fighting hoses aboard ships. The exhaust water can be sent overboard or piped back into the water supply system. These blowers can be used for supply or exhaust degassing.
- Design: Hydraulic-Powered System utilizes water pressure to drive the fan, making it ideal for hazardous or remote locations. High-Efficiency Nozzles convert water pressure into mechanical energy to spin the fan blades. Corrosion-Resistant Construction is designed for operation in wet or humid conditions. Adjustable Airflow Output with variable water pressure allows for different fan speeds and airflow levels. Portable & Mountable Options are available in fixed or mobile setups for versatile applications. Explosion-proof and safe for hazardous areas with no electrical components, reducing the risk of sparks or ignition.
- Applications:
- Mining Operations: Provides ventilation in underground tunnels and confined spaces where electrical fans may not be safe.
- Offshore & Marine Industries: Used on ships, oil rigs, and docks where high humidity and potential explosion risks exist.
- Industrial Cooling: Reduces heat in factories, foundries, and heavy machinery areas.
- Dust & Fume Control: Helps in construction sites, welding shops, and chemical plants where air circulation is needed.
- Agriculture & Livestock Cooling: Used in barns and greenhouses to maintain optimal air conditions.
- Disaster Relief & Emergency Cooling: Deployed in areas where power is unavailable but water sources exist.
- Materials: Fan Blades made of stainless steel provide strength and resistance to rust and harsh environments. Housing and frame are made of galvanized or powder-coated steel which prevents rust and ensures long-term durability. Water turbine or nozzle system consist of brass or stainless steel to resists corrosion and maintains high efficiency under water pressure. Mounting and support structure are made of steel or stainless steel which provides stability and durability.
- Configurations: Fan size 12″ or 16″
