MH Industrial Exhaust Fan
Heavy Duty Construction
OW – Open Wheel
The open type wheel is recommended for applications handling
heavy, granular, or abrasive materials. Air performance is less
than that of the back plate design. Reinforcing rims are added
to size 44" and larger in heavy-duty units.
AW – Air Wheel
The air wheel is designed for maximum efficiency when
handling air, fumes, gases, or light concentrations of fine
particulate matter. Eight slightly backwardly inclined blades
allow for more efficient airflow into the fan.

Inlet Cone
Available for sizes 16" through 79". Performances shown in
this catalog are for MH fans with inlet cone and outlet ducts.
Entrance loss must be added to static pressure calculated for
the system when no inlet duct is used. For open inlets, that loss
is equal to the fan velocity pressure.
Example: 4,000 FPM velocity = 1" static pressure. Using
the inlet orifice and guard such losses become
minimal.

It is sometimes thought that a larger fan is naturally better 1.2
than a smaller one. This is far from correct, since material 1.1
is just as liable to settle in a fan as in a duct. If the inlet and

CONSTRUCTION — The housing shall be constructed of heavy gauge steel with continuous seam type welding and side angle
reinforcement. The housing discharge, complete with flanged inlet and outlet, shall be field rotatable for sizes 12" through 25".
Lifting eyes shall be supplied on all sizes.
WHEEL — The blades of the AW wheel shall be flat, single thickness radial type, continuously welded to a wheel cone and back
plate. The wheel shall be dynamically and statically balanced and shall be attached to the fan shaft with a split taper lock bushing
or furnished with straight bore hubs.
BEARINGS — Bearings shall be pillow block design, oversized to ensure maximum bearing life and shall have a minimum L-10
life as defined by AFBMA of at least 40,000 hours (200,000 hours average life).
DRIVE — The belts and sheaves furnished by the manufacturer shall be selected to provide a minimum 1.4 service factor when
measured against motor horsepower.
MOTOR — Fan motors shall be foot-mounted NEMA Design B, standard industrial, continuous duty, ball bearing, variable
torque type suitable for operation on voltage, phase and hertz, as listed in the fan schedule. Motor bearings shall have a minimum
L-10 life, as defined by AFBMA, of at least 40,000 hours (200,000 hours average life).
BALANCING — The wheel assembly shall be statically and dynamically balanced in accordance with ANSI / AMCA 204-96
“Balance Quality and Vibration Levels for Fans” to Fan Application Category BV-3, Balance Quality Grade G6.3. In addition,
direct drive fan wheels shall be balanced on the motor shaft after final assembly and belt driven fan wheels shall be balanced on
the fan shaft after final assembly in the fan casing, in the manufacturing facility, to the following peak velocity values, filter-in, at
the fan test speed:
Fan Application Rigidly Mounted Flexibly Mounted
Category (in./s) (in./s)
BV-3 0.15 0.20
FINISH — The unit, after fabrication, shall be cleaned and chemically pretreated by a phosphatizing process and shall be painted
inside and outside with an air dry enamel.
