Heavy duty fans

When you’re dealing with extreme pressures, high air volumes, or demanding conditions, a standard fan simply won’t do the job. A heavy duty fan is built for continuous operation, high loads, and often requires custom design. We supply powerful industrial fans, custom-engineered and manufactured to your specifications – including ATEX-certified models and smoke and heat exhaust fans compliant with EN 12101-3. Below is a selection of what we offer.

Powerful fans for the toughest conditions

Heavy duty fans are made for environments where standard solutions fall short. Think high temperatures, elevated pressures, large airflow volumes or hazardous (explosive) areas. In such cases, you need a fan that’s fully tailored to your process, system or installation.

We supply heavy duty fans for use in:

  • Process industry – high volumes and continuous duty
  • Waste treatment & flue gas applications – high temperatures and polluted air
  • Hazardous zones – with ATEX certification
  • Smoke & Heat Exhaust (SHE) – certified according to EN 12101-3
  • Marine, offshore & energy – corrosive and heavy-duty environments

Each fan is custom-built, meeting your technical requirements and relevant regulations.

What makes a fan ‘heavy duty’?

  • Very high airflow capacity and pressure build-up
  • Rugged construction, often in steel or stainless steel
  • Tailored impellers, casings and drive systems
  • Resistant to extreme temperatures, moisture, corrosion or dust
  • Available in explosion-proof (ATEX) versions
  • Smoke and heat exhaust functionality (EN 12101-3 certified)

Our engineers support you with advice on technical specs, mounting options, noise control, vibration isolation and certification. The result? A fan that fits your system perfectly.

Frequently asked questions about heavy duty fans

When should I choose a heavy duty fan?

When your application demands very high airflow, pressure or resistance to extreme conditions such as heat, corrosion, or explosion risks. Heavy duty fans are made for challenging environments where standard fans can’t cope.

A heavy duty fan is a robust industrial fan designed for tough applications. It’s built for long-term, intensive use and can be supplied with certifications such as ATEX (explosion-proof) or EN 12101-3 (for smoke and heat extraction).

Yes. We fully design and build heavy duty fans based on your specific requirements. From materials to performance, everything is tailored to your system.

Absolutely. We supply heavy duty fans certified to the latest ATEX standards – essential for explosive environments in industries such as chemicals, recycling and offshore.

That depends on several factors: airflow, pressure, material, certification, and more. Request a quote with your specs – we’re happy to think along with you.
